Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Cross in Hand
Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean. We clean the extract system and the room it serves, so the whole space is done in one go. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. Common call-outs are for baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills and food debris trapped under the range, on stainless steel surfaces, behind and under equipment and fryers and grills.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Common questions in Cross in Hand
Do you cover smaller places like Cross in Hand?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Cross in Hand is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Cross in Hand?
The local authority for Cross in Hand is Wealden council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, we are fully insured. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. File it with your fire safety records.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
We clean the whole kitchen from top to bottom. You will know exactly what’s included before any work starts and it’s all in the fixed quote.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What should we do before the deep clean?
Very little. Move food and loose items away from the areas being cleaned and arrange access for the agreed time.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Why deal with it now?
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. Rural sites can’t always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

- Fixed quotes, typically within one working day

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
