How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Farlington
A deep clean is the kitchen’s full treatment. 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. If you’re dealing with a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean and a clean-up ahead of an inspection, we can put it right, from fryers and grills, stainless steel surfaces and ranges and ovens onwards.
For a kitchen near Farlington, deep cleans are booked around opening hours, often on a closed day, and the journey is planned ahead.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

FAQs for Farlington
Do you work overnight in Farlington?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you work in school kitchens around Farlington out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 10 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Farlington. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we’ll fit the work in.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, kept together in your maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
Where does the waste go?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
The kitchen’s size and equipment decide it, and a deep clean normally takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. You will know before work begins.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Farlington kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 15 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Farlington. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. In Farlington, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Portsmouth council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Warblington Castle is about 2.9 miles east), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Queen Alexandra Hospital (about 1.6 miles west), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Solent Infant School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

What else we do in Farlington
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
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.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, 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.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
- Never cook with the extract switched off
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
Once it’s deep cleaned, daily cleaning goes further. Keep up the routine, especially behind and under equipment where you can, and the next deep clean is lighter work.
If you can see grime on the ceiling or behind the range, it’s time. A deep clean at this point stops it getting worse and attracting pests.
What happens on the day
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Farlington can normally be finished without a second trip.
- We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- We work from the top down, starting with ceilings and walls.
- Equipment is cleaned inside and out, along with the areas behind and underneath it.
- The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.
Advice
What a clean will not put right
To be straight with you, some problems need a different fix:
- Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning can’t restore
- A blocked or overflowing grease trap
- Pests already in the kitchen
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before booking.

Why act early in Farlington
Environmental health visits aren’t always announced in advance. A kitchen with grime behind equipment and on ceilings is harder to defend even when the daily clean is good. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen inspection-ready. In a smaller place like Farlington, a site that has to close is felt quickly.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Fixed quotes for kitchen deep cleaning in Farlington
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing

Asking for a quote
A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- A few general shots of the system
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
