Kitchen Deep Cleaning in Fordwich
Deep cleaning of commercial kitchens, including walls, floors, ceilings and cooking equipment for businesses, landlords and public buildings in Fordwich. BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease.
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- Floors with grease along the edges
- Grease built up on walls and ceilings
Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
- Deal with spills straight away
- Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean between inspections.
A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Combining them with extract cleans covers the room and the system together.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Fordwich
In Fordwich, 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. If you have a kitchen taken over in poor condition and signs of pests drawn by food debris, we can put it right.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, 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.

For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
Commercial kitchens in Fordwich
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 6 pubs, bars and clubs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Fordwich. Wherever they cook, the kitchen and its drains need the same attention as a restaurant’s. It’s Canterbury City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fordwich. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you run a kitchen near Sturry station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap. Hall kitchens near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Fordwich may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

What we are called out for in Fordwich
Cooking equipment collects baked-on grease and carbon. A daily wipe-down doesn’t touch the hardened layers, so it builds up underneath.
Clients typically contact us when they notice one of these:
- A kitchen that needs a clean start
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
- Food debris trapped under the range
- Cooking equipment caked in carbon
A summer deep clean suits schools such as Sturry Church of England Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.
What your quote should include
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- What records you will receive afterwards

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What happens on the day
We’re used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Fordwich.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Honest limits
Kitchen deep cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not put right:
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
- An infestation that needs specialist treatment
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.
What the work covers
- Behind and under equipment
- Fryers and grills
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Floors and floor drains
- Ranges and ovens
- Walls and ceilings
How we price kitchen deep cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- The condition of the system
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
What to send for a quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. You will usually have a quote within one working day.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Fordwich?
Kitchens in Fordwich are inspected by Canterbury City council’s environmental health officers. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, including grease, debris and dirty water. We don’t leave it behind.
Can you give me a price for a deep clean?
We give you a fixed price after looking at the kitchen. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll arrange it and the quote is typically with you within one working day.
How do you protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, photos and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
Will a deep clean help with an EHO inspection?
Environmental health officers look at the cleanliness of the whole premises and equipment. A deep clean deals with the areas daily cleaning misses, which helps you present a clean kitchen.
