Kitchen deep cleaning near Aylesford

Kitchen deep cleaning in Aylesford

A deep clean is the kitchen’s full treatment. We look in the places daily cleaning misses and leave the kitchen ready to cook. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. The work covers floors and floor drains, fryers and grills and ranges and ovens, and common reasons people get in touch are a kitchen taken over in poor condition and cooking equipment caked in carbon.

Kitchens around a smaller place like Aylesford are often in older buildings, with drains and grease traps that have been there for years. Smells and slow drains are the usual warning signs.

A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. In a place like Aylesford, we fit the visit around your hours.

  1. First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
  2. Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
  3. We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
  4. We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
  5. We finish the floors and walk round with you.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Common questions in Aylesford

Can you come to Aylesford after we close?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Aylesford?

That is Tonbridge and Malling council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Aylesford. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

Do I get a report after the visit?

Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a written, dated record with pictures of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.

What accreditations do you have?

We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.

What do you do to protect the area?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.

Can you clean behind fixed equipment?

Where equipment can be moved safely, we clean behind and under it. Not everything can be moved safely and we’ll explain what we can reach.

Leave it or put it right?

Environmental health visits aren’t always announced in advance. Build-up in hidden areas is the kind of thing inspectors notice even when the daily clean is good. Keeping on top of it with deep cleans is far less stressful. A site near Aylesford that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

Aftercare tips

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
  • Clean behind movable equipment regularly
  • Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
  • Write down what gets cleaned and when

Equipment is put back in place before we leave so your team can start up as normal. There’s nothing extra to do from then on.

Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start instead of chasing grime later.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Aylesford

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 29 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 12 sandwich bars and takeaways across Aylesford and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Environmental health officers from Tonbridge and Malling council inspect food businesses in Aylesford. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Aylesford Primary School or anywhere near Aylesford, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Maidstone Hospital (about 1.7 miles south), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.

Keep an eye out for these warning signs:

  • Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
  • A clean-up ahead of an inspection
  • A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
  • Grime in corners that pests could exploit

For a café close to Aylesford station, a deep clean can be done between closing and the morning rush.

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

For landlords and multi-site operators

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
