Kitchen deep cleaning in Bankside
We clean from the ceiling down. High surfaces come first, then walls and equipment, then floors last so dirt doesn’t land on areas already done. Cooking equipment is switched off and allowed to cool first. The work covers floors and floor drains, fryers and grills and ranges and ovens, and people most often call us about a kitchen that needs a clean start and food debris trapped under the range.
London kitchens work hard in small spaces, so grease collects behind equipment, on ceilings and in drains and grease traps. For a kitchen in Bankside, the work is typically done overnight, between the last service and the first.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Questions from Bankside
Can school kitchens in Bankside be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Bankside, the Food Standards Agency lists about 78 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Bankside?
The local authority for Bankside is the City of London Corporation, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?
Yes. We can plan both on the same visit or over consecutive visits to suit the kitchen.
How much notice do you need?
Earlier is better, especially for out-of-hours work. We typically quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?
Environmental health officers look at the cleanliness of the whole premises and equipment. Deep cleaning brings the hidden areas up to standard, which helps you present a clean kitchen.
Do we need to prepare anything before you arrive?
Clear food and small items from surfaces. We will need the cooking equipment switched off and cool before we start.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What a clean will not put right
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
- An infestation that needs specialist treatment
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
What the work covers
- Fryers and grills
- Walls and ceilings
- Floors and floor drains
- Behind and under equipment
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Ranges and ovens
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Never cook with the extract switched off
Once it’s deep cleaned, daily cleaning goes further. Keep up the routine, especially behind and under equipment where you can, and the next deep clean is lighter work.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well instead of chasing grime later.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Bankside
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
What affects the quote in Bankside
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Parking and loading at the site
- How easy every part is to reach
- The times the site is available
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from pictures and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Bankside
The FSA’s data shows about 512 pubs and bars and about 129 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses registered in and around Bankside, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day. Food hygiene inspections in Bankside are the job of the City of London Corporation’s environmental health team. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Hall and church kitchens, near St Mary Mounthaw or anywhere around Bankside, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like London Nautical School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned. If you run a kitchen near London Blackfriars station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap.

The process
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 one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. We fit London jobs around the building rather than the other way round, so a visit in Bankside is usually out of hours.
- We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
- Equipment is turned off and allowed to cool before anything else happens.
- Ceilings, walls and high-level surfaces are cleaned first, working downwards.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
