In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. 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.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Elder Street
In Elder Street, we fit deep cleans around the hours the kitchen cooks. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the kitchen is ready for the next service. Schools can book during the holidays. Common call-outs are for grease built up on walls and ceilings and food debris that could attract pests, on behind and under equipment, fryers and grills and ranges and ovens.
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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

The process
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. Somewhere like Elder Street, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Advice
Different parts, different methods
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.
Behind and under equipment
The areas behind and under equipment are where grime hides. Where equipment can be moved safely, we move it and clean underneath.
Between visits
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Do not let the extract cleaning slip
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Mop right into the edges and corners
We put equipment back where it belongs, ready for your staff to check and start up. There’s nothing extra to do once it’s back in service.
If you can see grime on the ceiling or behind the range, it’s time. Dealing with it now keeps it from spreading and drawing pests in.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
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 can quote for the whole system.

Old grease hardens and bonds to surfaces. A kitchen deep cleaned regularly is quicker to clean each time and surfaces stay in better condition. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
