Kitchen deep cleaning for sites in Clare Market

Kitchen deep cleaning in Clare Market, done properly

An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A thorough deep clean brings every surface up to standard before or after an inspection. The work covers stainless steel surfaces, fryers and grills and behind and under equipment, and the jobs we see most are a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean and food debris trapped under the range.

Across London, council environmental health teams inspect food businesses, and the cleanliness of the whole kitchen is part of what they look at. A deep clean ahead of an inspection, or after one, is a common reason kitchens in Clare Market get in touch.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Part by part

Walls and ceilings

Walls and ceilings collect grease carried up by heat and steam. We clean them from the top down so nothing drips onto clean areas.

Cooking equipment

Clean equipment is easier to keep clean and looks better to an inspector.

What we’re called out for in Clare Market

Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. Daily wiping only deals with the surface and it thickens over time.

Look out for any of the following:

  • A kitchen taken over in poor condition
  • A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
  • Greasy, slippery kitchen floors
  • Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment

Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Philip's Hospital (about less than half a mile north-west), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the quote shows VAT
  • What insurance they carry
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • Whether they recommend a next date

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

What happens if it’s left?

The longer grease is left, the harder it is to remove. Regular deep cleans are easier than rescuing a neglected kitchen, and surfaces last better. Shared walls, risers and roofs mean a problem at one London site seldom stays put.

What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

Clare Market: your questions answered

London parking can be tight, so details of loading bays and permits help. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.

Do you clean school kitchens in Clare Market in the summer holidays?

Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 85 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Clare Market. Send us your term dates when you call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll fit the work in.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.

How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?

After a look at the kitchen, from photos or on site, we send you a fixed quote. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will arrange it, and it’s typically back within one working day.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

How much time does a deep clean need?

Most deep cleans take anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen including the floors at the end. It’s planned around your opening times.

Is Clare Market in your area?

Yes. We cover Clare Market and across Greater London, as part of our work across South East England and London. To book, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

The process

Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. If your building in Clare Market has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.

  1. We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
  2. Equipment is turned off and allowed to cool before anything else happens.
  3. Ceilings, walls and high-level surfaces are cleaned first, working downwards.
  4. Equipment is cleaned inside and out, along with the areas behind and underneath it.
  5. The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.

How to prepare

  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

How to get a quote

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, pictures of the system and any previous report or certificate. Then ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Advice

What your team can do, and what needs us

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Commercial kitchens in Clare Market

Food Standards Agency records list about 27 food manufacturers and packers within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Clare Market. Production areas collect grease and dust on high surfaces and equipment, which a deep clean deals with. Fat from London kitchens contributes to sewer blockages, which is why grease traps need emptying on a schedule. In Clare Market, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Westminster council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Clement Danes CofE Primary School or anywhere near Clare Market, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean. If you serve passing trade near London Charing Cross station, a grease trap on a regular schedule keeps the drains running through busy weeks.

Looking after it afterwards

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Write down what gets cleaned and when
  • Plan the next deep clean in advance
  • Keep the extract running while you cook
  • Wipe splashes before they harden

When we leave, the kitchen is ready to cook. We walk round with you or your manager before we go.

Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.

For landlords and multi-site operators

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
