Kitchen deep cleaning across Findon

What we do, step by step

Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Findon before we set off.

  1. We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
  2. Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
  3. We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
  4. Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
  5. The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.

Preparing for the visit

  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Advice

How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Findon

Old, baked-on grease does not come off with a wipe. Deep cleaning uses methods suited to the build-up and the time to do it properly. The work covers behind and under equipment, fryers and grills and ranges and ovens, and the jobs we see most are baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills and greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings.

Work in a small place like Findon starts with agreeing a date and access.

Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, 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.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Findon

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
  • Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
  • Don’t let the extract cleaning slip
  • Keep a cleaning log up to date

A deep-cleaned kitchen is easier to keep clean. 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 drawing pests in.

What we are called out for in Findon

Steam and condensation carry grease to ceilings and high walls. It darkens surfaces and can drip back down.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment
  • A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
  • Preparation for an EHO inspection
  • Grease stains on walls near the cooking line

A summer deep clean suits schools such as St John the Baptist CofE Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Before booking anyone

  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • Proof of insurance
  • Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
  • What records you will receive afterwards

Questions to ask before booking

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Findon

Food Standards Agency records list about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 takeaways and sandwich shops within about 1.5 miles of central Findon. Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen tidy, but kitchens like these still need a periodic deep clean. It’s Arun council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Findon. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.

Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Worthing Hospital, about 3.9 miles south-east, is the nearest hospital to Findon. Hall kitchens near The Parish Church of St John the Baptist or elsewhere in Findon may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

Findon is about 3 miles north of Worthing, in West Sussex. We carry out kitchen deep cleaning for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Findon and the rest of West Sussex.

Different parts, different methods

Cooking equipment

Equipment collects hardened deposits. They’re removed in a way that suits each appliance.

Behind and under equipment

Food debris behind equipment can attract pests. Clearing it out is a core part of a deep clean.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • What state the system is in

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

Helping us quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

Common questions in Findon

Is Findon within the area you cover?

Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Can you come to Findon after we close?

Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Findon needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.

Is there anything we have to do beforehand?

Clear away food and small items from the work areas so they’re out of the way. We will tell you anything else when we confirm the visit.

Which sectors do you work in?

Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.

Will you tell us when the next visit is due?

Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.

How much notice do you need?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Which records should we keep?

Anything that proves the system is maintained: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.

Can you clean the extract at the same time?

Yes, and many kitchens do. We clean inside the extract system to TR19 while the kitchen around it is deep cleaned.
