Kitchen deep cleaning in Clerkenwell, done properly
Think of a deep clean as a full check-up for the kitchen. We look in the places daily cleaning misses and hand the kitchen back ready for service. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. Common call-outs are for preparation for an EHO inspection and a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean, on ranges and ovens, stainless steel surfaces and floors and floor drains.
London kitchens work hard in small spaces, so grease collects behind equipment, on ceilings and in drains and grease traps. In Clerkenwell, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically done overnight.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Common problems we fix in Clerkenwell
The usual end-of-shift clean covers what’s in easy reach. Behind and under heavy equipment, high walls and ceilings rarely get the same attention, and that is where the build-up grows.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A kitchen taken over in poor condition
- Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
- Grime in corners that pests could exploit
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
For schools such as St Peter and St Paul RC Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are normally booked for the holidays.

When it’s something else
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- An infestation that needs specialist treatment
- Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning can’t restore
- Grease in the ducts above the kitchen
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Ranges and ovens
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Fryers and grills
- Behind and under equipment
- Floors and floor drains
- Walls and ceilings
What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Fixed quotes for kitchen deep cleaning in Clerkenwell
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- The condition we find in the survey
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Site rules, permits and inductions
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The site address and the type of premises
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
For kitchen deep cleaning in Clerkenwell, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.
Aftercare tips
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
When we leave, the kitchen is ready to cook. We go round the kitchen with you to check everything is as agreed.
Grease that’s left only gets harder to remove. A deep clean now saves a much bigger job later and keeps the kitchen in shape for an EHO visit.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. If your building in Clerkenwell has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.

Before we arrive

Factories and packing rooms need deep cleaning planned around production runs. Night work is normal for London kitchens, and the kitchen is handed back ready for the morning.
