How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Bowcombe
A deep clean pairs well with a TR19® clean of the extract. The extract is cleaned inside, and the kitchen around it is cleaned too and the whole kitchen benefits. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. If you’re dealing with preparation for an EHO inspection and greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings, we can put it right, from behind and under equipment, walls and ceilings and ranges and ovens onwards.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

How the visit works
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your photos. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. After that, the work takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Bowcombe, let us know and we will plan around it.
- First, we walk the kitchen with you and agree the scope.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt doesn’t fall on clean areas.
- 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.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Move anything stored near the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Advice
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
What a clean won’t put right
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:
- An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
- Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
Where we work
- Floors and floor drains
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Behind and under equipment
- Ranges and ovens
- Fryers and grills
- Walls and ceilings

Bowcombe: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Bowcombe?
Yes. Bowcombe is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Bowcombe?
In Bowcombe, it’s Isle of Wight council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
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.
Can you give me a price for a deep clean?
Every kitchen is different, so we quote once we know what’s involved. You get a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
That comes down to the kitchen, though a deep clean typically takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. We’ll confirm when we quote.
Are you insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes, and it often makes sense. We clean inside the extract system to TR19 while the kitchen around it is deep cleaned.
What the work involves, part by part
Cooking equipment
Baked-on grease and carbon build up on cooking equipment. We remove them using methods that suit the equipment.
Behind and under equipment
Food debris behind equipment can attract pests. Clearing it out is a core part of a deep clean.
Keeping the system healthy
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
- Mop right into the edges and corners
Anything we notice during the clean, such as worn flooring or a dirty extract, is pointed out. That might mean a TR19® clean or a repair by another trade.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well instead of chasing grime later.
Bowcombe kitchens: local notes
Look up Bowcombe on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Bowcombe. Every one of them has corners the daily clean doesn’t reach. In Bowcombe, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Isle of Wight council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
Historic houses such as Carisbrooke Castle (about 1.2 miles north-east) are part of the area around Bowcombe, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps. School kitchens, at schools like Christ The King College for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.
Bowcombe is about 2 miles south-west of Newport, in the Isle of Wight. Whatever kind of site you run in Bowcombe, we can take on kitchen deep cleaning.

What’s near Bowcombe
We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around The Blacksmiths Arms and the streets around them. A little further out are Whitecroft Hospital (1.6 miles east) and Isle of Wight Music Museum (2.3 miles north-east). For a walk, there’s Brighstone Down.
Leave it or put it right?
Grease on walls, ceilings and equipment is fuel close to the cooking. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen, alongside the grease in the extract. A deep clean takes it away. A planned visit to Bowcombe is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

When to call us in Bowcombe
Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Combined with grease, it becomes the kind of mess pests like if it is not cleared.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- Food debris that could attract pests
- Greasy, slippery kitchen floors
Where a church or community hall near Church of St. Nicholas in Castro, or anywhere in Bowcombe, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.
