How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Goathurst Common
In Goathurst Common, 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. Schools can book during the holidays. Common call-outs are for a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and floors with grease along the edges, on fryers and grills, floors and floor drains and stainless steel surfaces.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Goathurst Common: your questions answered
Can you work in Goathurst Common outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Goathurst Common does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Goathurst Common?
The local authority for Goathurst Common is Sevenoaks council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
Behind and under the equipment is a key part of the job. If something cannot be moved safely we clean around it as fully as we can.
What should go in our maintenance log?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.
Which areas does a deep clean cover?
The whole kitchen: walls, ceilings, floors and equipment, including behind and under equipment where it can be moved safely. We agree the exact scope with you before work begins.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Is there anything we have to do beforehand?
Put food, utensils and small items away so they’re out of the way. Anything else we need, we will mention in advance.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Why act early in Goathurst Common
An inspection can come at any time. Build-up in hidden areas is the kind of thing inspectors notice, however good the daily routine. Keeping on top of it with deep cleans is far less stressful. In a small place like Goathurst Common, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

How the job changes from site to site
Cooking equipment
Baked-on grease and carbon build up on cooking equipment. We remove them using methods that suit the equipment.
Walls and ceilings
Ceilings above the cooking line often darken with grease. We clean them along with the walls in a way that suits the finish.
What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Any permits to work or inductions
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
How the visit works
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Goathurst Common can be planned properly.
- We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
- Appliances are switched off to cool while we protect the areas that need it.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt doesn’t fall on clean areas.
- We clean the cooking equipment and the spaces behind and under it.
- The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us 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. We usually come back within one working day.
