Kitchen deep cleaning in Bedwell, done properly
Think of a deep clean as a full check-up for the kitchen. We look in the places daily cleaning misses and leave the kitchen ready to cook. It’s a fresh start that is easier to keep on top of. If you have a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean, we can help, from fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and stainless steel surfaces onwards.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Bedwell 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.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

How the visit works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Bedwell, so let us know how to reach it.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- We make sure all cooking equipment is off and cool.
- We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
- Equipment is cleaned, along with the areas behind and under it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

Advice
FAQs for Bedwell
Can school kitchens in Bedwell be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 36 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Bedwell. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Bedwell?
Kitchens in Bedwell are inspected by Stevenage council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.
What does commercial kitchen deep cleaning cost?
After a look at the kitchen, from pictures or on site, we give you a fixed quote. Get in touch to arrange it and the quote is typically with you within one working day.
Do you move heavy equipment to clean behind it?
Where equipment can be moved safely, we clean behind and under it. Not everything can be moved safely and we will explain what we can reach.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes. We can plan both on the same visit or over consecutive visits to suit the kitchen.
When can you do the deep clean?
We book it for when you’re closed. Deep cleans happen when the kitchen is closed and leave the kitchen ready for the next shift.
How much time does a deep clean need?
As a guide, it takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. A large or heavily soiled kitchen takes longer and we will say so when we quote.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so each one has its own record.

Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Deal with spills right away
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
If we spot anything that needs attention, like damaged surfaces or a greasy canopy, we tell you. It may need an extract clean or another trade.
Old grease hardens with every service. A deep clean now saves a much bigger job later and keeps the kitchen in shape for an EHO visit.
When to call us in Bedwell
Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. A daily wipe-down does not touch the hardened layers, so it builds up underneath.
The symptoms we are asked about most include:
- A clean-up ahead of an inspection
- A kitchen that needs a clean start
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- Food debris trapped under the range
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Bedwell (the nearest hospital is Lister Hospital, about 1.7 miles north-west), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

What the work involves, part by part
Walls and ceilings
Wall cladding and tiles around the cooking line get greasy fast. We clean them thoroughly including the corners.
Behind and under equipment
These areas are almost impossible to reach during daily cleaning so it’s often the dirtiest part of the kitchen.
