What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The scale of the work
- How easy every part is to reach
- Site rules, permits and inductions
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
Asking for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To start, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Chelsea, done properly
Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen running but some areas never get touched. Behind and under equipment, and high up on walls and ceilings, grease quietly builds up. A deep clean deals with all of it while the kitchen is closed. If you have signs of pests drawn by food debris and grime behind and under cooking equipment, we can help, from walls and ceilings, ranges and ovens and stainless steel surfaces onwards.
Across London, council environmental health teams inspect food businesses, and walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of the picture. A deep clean ahead of an inspection, or after one, is a common reason kitchens in Chelsea get in touch.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

How the visit works
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Equipment that has to be off is switched off and allowed to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. A name and number for whoever controls access to the building in Chelsea saves time on the night.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
How to prepare
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Advice
Common questions in Chelsea
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Chelsea?
Kitchens in Chelsea are inspected by Kensington and Chelsea 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.
Do you work at weekends in Chelsea?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Chelsea doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Are you insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, pictures and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Can you clean the extract at the same time?
Yes, and many kitchens do. The extract is cleaned inside to TR19 and the kitchen gets its deep clean too.
Will a deep clean help with an EHO inspection?
Inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is, including equipment. Deep cleaning brings the hidden areas up to standard, which helps you present a clean kitchen.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
Walls, floors, ceilings and cooking equipment, plus the areas behind and under the equipment. The scope is agreed before the visit.
Common problems we fix in Chelsea
Steam and condensation carry grease to ceilings and high walls. Over time, it stains and can begin to drip back down.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- Food debris trapped under the range
- Floors with grease along the edges
- A kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Chelsea (the nearest hospital is Royal Brompton Hospital, about less than half a mile west), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.
What your quote should include
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- What paperwork you get at the end
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed
- If they look at the system before pricing
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

When something else is needed
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen deep cleaning will not do:
- Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning can’t restore
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
- Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.

Commercial kitchens in Chelsea
Look up Chelsea on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 1,391 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 158 takeaways and sandwich shops across Chelsea and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Kitchens in Chelsea get their food hygiene inspections from Kensington and Chelsea council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day. Compact London kitchens collect grease in tight corners, which an overnight deep clean can reach.
Hall and church kitchens, near Former Welsh Congregational Church or anywhere around Chelsea, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Oratory Roman Catholic Primary School or anywhere near Chelsea, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

Local landmarks in Chelsea

Why act early in Chelsea
The longer grease is left, the harder it is to remove. A kitchen deep cleaned regularly is quicker to clean each time and surfaces stay in better condition. In a London building, a problem in a duct, damper or fan rarely stays in one unit.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before work begins.
