About our kitchen deep cleaning in Great Sampford
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A deep clean puts the whole kitchen in good order before or after an inspection. Typical jobs include hardened deposits on kitchen equipment and a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean, on ranges and ovens, stainless steel surfaces and floors and floor drains.
For a kitchen in or near Great Sampford, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Great Sampford: your questions answered
Which environmental health team covers Great Sampford?
Food hygiene inspections in Great Sampford are carried out by Uttlesford council. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you work overnight in Great Sampford?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. When you call 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
Typically, a deep clean takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Bigger kitchens or heavy build-up need more time, and we will tell you how long to expect.
Can you clean the extract at the same time?
Yes. We can plan both on the same visit or over consecutive visits, depending on the size of the job.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Is there anything we have to do beforehand?
Just put away food and small items, and let us in. Cooking equipment needs to be switched off and allowed to cool when we arrive.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
- Don’t let the extract cleaning slip
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
Equipment is put back in place before we leave, ready for your staff to check and start up. Nothing special is needed after that once it’s back in service.
A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Combining them with extract cleans keeps the whole kitchen on track.
What happens if it’s left?
Built-up grease around the cooking line is something that can burn. The longer it’s left, the more there is, alongside the grease in the extract. A deep clean takes it away. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Great Sampford 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. Call for a fixed quote, and we will explain what it covers.

The process
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen, and we clear up before we go. Somewhere as small as Great Sampford, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- We agree the scope of the clean and the time to attend.
- We make sure all cooking equipment is off and cool.
- High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
- We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system

Advice
Different parts, different methods
Floors
Grease builds up along the edges and under equipment. We pay particular attention there.
School and care home kitchens
School holidays are a good time for a deep clean so the kitchen is ready when pupils return.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
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.
