Kitchen deep cleaning in Crawley Down
A good daily routine keeps the surfaces clean but some areas never get touched. Grease collects behind ranges, under fryers, on high walls and across ceilings. Our deep clean goes after every one of those areas while the kitchen is closed. The work covers walls and ceilings, stainless steel surfaces and behind and under equipment, and common reasons people get in touch are grease built up on walls and ceilings and preparation for an EHO inspection.
Around a place like Crawley Down, deep clean work tends to mean pubs, cafés and school or care home kitchens. A smaller kitchen still builds up grease where everyday cleaning doesn’t reach.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What staff can safely do
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Crawley Down questions
Can you come to Crawley Down after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Crawley Down keeps running as normal. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Which environmental health team covers Crawley Down?
That’s Mid Sussex council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Crawley Down. 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 inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?
Cleanliness is one of the things inspectors assess. Deep cleaning takes care of grime in the places that are easy to miss and good daily cleaning keeps it that way.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Are you fully insured?
Yes, we are fully insured. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it, for sites that check contractor safety.
Which records should we keep?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

The process
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’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. We plan the journey to Crawley Down and bring what the job is likely to need.
- We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
- Appliances are switched off to cool while we protect the areas that need it.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt doesn’t fall on clean areas.
- We clean the cooking equipment and the spaces behind and under it.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Advice
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Commercial kitchens in Crawley Down
There are about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Crawley Down, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. It’s Mid Sussex council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Crawley Down. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
Historic houses such as Saint Hill Manor (about 2.4 miles south-east) are part of the area around Crawley Down, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps. Hall kitchens near All Saints Parish Church or elsewhere in Crawley Down may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. Queen Victoria Hospital, about 3.5 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Crawley Down; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

Leave it or put it right?

How we price kitchen deep cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- A single visit or a regular plan
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- How big the system is
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
