Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Findon Valley
In Findon Valley, we fit deep cleans around the hours the kitchen cooks. Most are done overnight, early in the morning or at the weekend, so the kitchen is ready for the next service. School kitchens are often done in the holidays. We’re often asked to deal with signs of pests drawn by food debris and a kitchen that needs a clean start, across walls and ceilings, fryers and grills and ranges and ovens.
Work in a smaller place like Findon Valley is planned around your opening hours.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Common questions in Findon Valley
Can a school kitchen in Findon Valley be done out of term time?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around Findon Valley, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Findon Valley?
Food hygiene inspections in Findon Valley are carried out by Worthing council. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Will a deep clean help with an EHO inspection?
Yes, inspectors look at the whole kitchen. No clean can promise a rating, but a deep clean puts the kitchen in good condition.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Will the deep clean disrupt service?
It’s timed for when the kitchen isn’t cooking. Deep cleans happen when the kitchen is closed and leave the kitchen ready for the next shift.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
Typically, a deep clean takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. Bigger kitchens or heavy build-up need more time and we will say so when we quote.
Do you need kitchen deep cleaning in Findon Valley?
Every service sends grease into the air. The canopy catches a lot of it, but some settles on walls, ceilings and equipment. Over weeks and months, it builds into a sticky layer.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Food debris that could attract pests
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- A kitchen taken over in poor condition
Where a church or community hall near All Saints, or anywhere in Findon Valley, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.

Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
- Don’t let the extract cleaning slip
Once it’s deep cleaned, daily cleaning goes further. Keep on top of the daily routine so build-up stays down.
Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.
What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Findon Valley, so let us know how to reach it.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Part by part
Behind and under equipment
The areas behind and under equipment are where grime hides. We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
School and care home kitchens
Kitchens that serve fixed mealtimes need careful planning. We work outside meal service.
What happens if it’s left?
In any kitchen in Findon Valley, the extract and the room it serves get greasy side by side. Cleaning the extract but not the room, or the other way round, only does half the job and that is why many kitchens plan the two together. Booking ahead lets us plan the trip to Findon Valley at a time that suits you.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
