Our Story

Veteran-Owned Discipline. Bare-Metal Clean.
Founded by military veteran Jason McLean, The Hood Guy LLC brings military precision, uncompromising safety standards, and an unmatched work ethic to commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning across East Tennessee. Where other hood cleaning contractors cut corners, our command-led team executes every job to strict NFPA 96 fire safety codes and local compliance standards.

Complete Commercial Exhaust System Hygiene
We specialize in deep cleaning for restaurants, hotels, school cafeterias, and industrial manufacturing plants. We don’t just clean the visible kitchen hood—we degrease your entire exhaust system down to bare metal, from the intake filters and interior ductwork to the rooftop exhaust fan.

100% Visual Accountability & Compliance Reports
We built our business to eliminate guesswork and build long-term partnerships. Every service includes complete before-and-after photographic proof, detailed inspection stickers, and official service reports to guarantee your facility stays safe, code-compliant, and audit-ready.
