How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Benhilton
A deep clean pairs well with a TR19® clean of the extract. We clean the extract system and the room it serves and the whole kitchen benefits. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. If you’re dealing with a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean and grime behind and under cooking equipment, we can put it right, from ranges and ovens, floors and floor drains and behind and under equipment onwards.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Clean behind movable equipment regularly
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
It’s easy to set the next date while we’re there. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean all year round.
Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.
When it’s something else
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- The inside of the extract system
- Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning can’t restore
- Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll say what we think.

How the visit works
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. For a job in Benhilton, tell us about loading bays, permits, lifts and roof access when you book.
- We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- We work from the top down, starting with ceilings and walls.
- We clean the cooking equipment and the spaces behind and under it.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Part by part
Canopy exteriors
The outside of the canopy collects grease and dust. We clean the exterior as part of the deep clean.
Behind and under equipment
The areas behind and under equipment are where grime hides. Where equipment can be moved safely, we move it and clean underneath.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Benhilton
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 to a regular schedule.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

Common questions in Benhilton
How do you handle parking and loading in Benhilton?
A loading bay, a visitor permit or off-street space near the site in Benhilton makes the visit easier to plan. Much of our London work is done overnight, which helps.
Can you come to Benhilton after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Benhilton keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Do we need to prepare anything before you arrive?
Just put away food and small items, and let us in. We’ll need the cooking equipment switched off and cool when we arrive.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes pictures, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Which records should we keep?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Benhilton
Look up Benhilton on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 199 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 115 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Benhilton. Every one of them has corners the daily clean does not reach. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day. Kitchens in Benhilton get their food hygiene inspections from Sutton council. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
If you serve passing trade near Sutton Common station, a grease trap on a regular schedule keeps the drains running through busy weeks. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; St Helier Hospital, about 0.6 miles north-east, is the nearest hospital to Benhilton. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as All Saints Benhilton CofE Primary School or anywhere near Benhilton, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

The longer grease is left, the harder it is to remove. A kitchen deep cleaned regularly is quicker to clean each time, and surfaces last better. London sites work long hours, and the longer a job is left, the bigger it gets.
