Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Furnace Wood
The work runs from top to bottom. Ceilings and high-level areas come first, followed by walls, equipment and floors, so nothing falls onto surfaces we have already cleaned. Equipment is switched off and left to cool before any work starts. If you’re dealing with a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and greasy, slippery kitchen floors, we can put it right, from fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and stainless steel surfaces onwards.
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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Why deal with it now?
Old grease hardens and bonds to surfaces. A kitchen deep cleaned regularly is quicker to clean each time, and surfaces last better. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Furnace Wood rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we will explain what it covers.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Aftercare tips
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
- Never cook with the extract switched off
It’s easy to set the next date while we’re there. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind between inspections.
Visible build-up behind equipment or on the ceiling is a clear sign. A deep clean at this point stops it getting worse and drawing pests in.
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- The inside of the extract system
- A blocked or overflowing grease trap
- Pests already in the kitchen
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will say what we think.

Furnace Wood kitchens: local notes
There are about 8 restaurants, cafés and canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Furnace Wood, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Food hygiene inspections in Furnace Wood are the job of Mid Sussex council’s environmental health team. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Saint Hill Manor is about 3 miles south-east), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Felbridge Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Queen Victoria Hospital about 3.1 miles east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.

Furnace Wood questions
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Furnace Wood?
Kitchens in Furnace Wood are inspected by Mid Sussex council’s environmental health officers. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Do you cover smaller places like Furnace Wood?
Yes, Furnace Wood is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?
Yes, we can. Both can be done on the same visit or close together to suit the kitchen.
Will a deep clean help with an EHO inspection?
A clean kitchen is part of what an EHO looks at. Deep cleaning takes care of grime in the places that are easy to miss, though it’s the daily routine that keeps it there.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. Every visit ends with a written report and photos, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Can you give me a price for a deep clean?
Size, equipment and the level of build-up all affect the price. We can quote from pictures or a site visit and give you a fixed price.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Part by part
Cooking equipment
Baked-on grease and carbon build up on cooking equipment. We remove them using methods that suit the equipment.
Floors
Greasy floors are a slip hazard. Floors are done at the end reaching under and behind equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- The condition we find in the survey
- How big the system is
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
Helping us quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before work begins.
What we do, step by step
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which 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 Furnace Wood before we set off.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- We make sure all cooking equipment is off and cool.
- We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
- Equipment is cleaned, along with the areas behind and under it.
- The floors are cleaned and the kitchen is checked with you.
Before we arrive
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
