Aftercare tips

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
  • Clean behind movable equipment regularly
  • Deal with spills right away
  • Do not let the extract cleaning slip

Floors are clean and dry by the time we have finished. Your team can come in and set up as normal at the start of the next shift.

Grease that is left only gets harder to remove. A deep clean now saves a much bigger job later, and keeps the kitchen ready for an inspection.

About our kitchen deep cleaning in Covent Garden

For kitchens in Covent Garden, we plan deep cleans around service. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends so there’s no lost trade. School kitchens are often done in the holidays. If you have grease stains on walls near the cooking line and a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean, we can put it right.

London kitchens work hard in small spaces, and grease builds up behind and under equipment, on walls and ceilings, and in the drains. In Covent Garden, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight.

It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Covent Garden questions

Do you work overnight in Covent Garden?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. It means the site in Covent Garden keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Covent Garden?

Kitchens in Covent Garden are inspected by Westminster council’s environmental health officers. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.

Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?

We can. A TR19® extract clean and a deep clean fit well together, so the whole kitchen is done at once. The extract clean comes with a certificate and photo report.

What’s included in a kitchen deep clean?

It takes in the places daily cleaning does not reach, from high walls and ceilings to the floor under the range. Equipment is cleaned inside and out.

Is Covent Garden in your area?

Yes. Covent Garden is part of the area we cover, as part of our area across London and the South East.

Is there anything we have to do beforehand?

Put food, utensils and small items away so they’re out of the way. Anything else we need, we’ll mention in advance.

What about areas you can’t get to?

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

How far ahead should we book?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.

What we do, step by step

Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. If your building in Covent Garden has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.

  1. First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
  2. Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
  3. High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
  4. We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
  5. We finish the floors and walk round with you.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Covent Garden

Food Standards Agency data counts about 4,587 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 864 takeaways in and around Covent Garden, up to about a mile and a half out. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Environmental health officers from Westminster council inspect food businesses in Covent Garden. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order. Most London kitchens cannot close in the day, so deep cleaning is typically done overnight.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Clement Danes CofE Primary School or anywhere near Covent Garden, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean. If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Covent Garden (the nearest hospital is Savoy Hospital, about within half a mile south-east), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

How the job changes from site to site

Canopy exteriors

The inside of the canopy, the plenum and the ducts need a TR19 clean. Many kitchens book both together.

School and care home kitchens

School holidays are a good time for a deep clean, ready for the new term.

Common problems we fix in Covent Garden

Cooking releases grease with every service. Some is caught by the extract but the rest lands on nearby surfaces. In time, it forms a tacky film that daily cleaning struggles with.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • Build-up behind fryers and ovens
  • Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
  • Floors with grease along the edges
  • A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean

If you run a café or takeaway near London Charing Cross station, a deep clean overnight means the kitchen opens as normal next morning.

Our hiring checklist

For landlords and multi-site operators

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

What happens if it’s left?

Grime behind and under equipment can attract pests. Cleaning it out removes what they’re looking for, which is far better than dealing with an infestation. A booked night’s work in Covent Garden costs you no trading time; an unplanned closure does.

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.
