About our kitchen deep cleaning in Great Chart
Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen running but some areas never get touched. Grease collects behind ranges, under fryers, on high walls and across ceilings. A deep clean deals with all of it in one planned visit. Common call-outs are for floors with grease along the edges and greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings, on walls and ceilings, ranges and ovens and behind and under equipment.
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.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Advice
Do you need kitchen deep cleaning in Great Chart?
Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Mixed with grease, it forms a layer that can attract pests if it isn’t cleared.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- A kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit
- Grease stains on walls near the cooking line
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; William Harvey Hospital, about 3.5 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Great Chart.
Questions to ask before you book
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the quote shows VAT
Why act early in Great Chart
Food debris and grease in hidden corners can draw pests in. Cleaning it out removes what they’re looking for, which is far better than dealing with an infestation. In a small place like Great Chart, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
The cost depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements, and we will send a fixed quote.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Between visits
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Never cook with the extract switched off
The kitchen is handed back ready for the next service. We walk round with you or your manager before we go.
If you can see grime on the ceiling or behind the range, it’s time. Dealing with it now keeps it from spreading and attracting pests.

Great Chart questions
Will you come out to Great Chart?
Yes, Great Chart is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Which council inspects kitchens in Great Chart?
Kitchens in Great Chart are inspected by Ashford 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.
What’s TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes. We can plan both on the same visit or over consecutive visits to suit the kitchen.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
That comes down to the kitchen, though a deep clean typically takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. We’ll confirm when we quote.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it doesn’t spread.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
