About our kitchen deep cleaning in Great Shefford
Across Great Shefford, we deep clean restaurant and pub kitchens, hotel kitchens, school kitchens and more, from small takeaways to large production kitchens. The scope is agreed before work begins, and you get a fixed quote. We’re often asked to deal with a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean and baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills, on fryers and grills, stainless steel surfaces and walls and ceilings.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with pictures of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Great Shefford: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Great Shefford?
The local authority for Great Shefford is West Berkshire council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Can you come to Great Shefford after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Great Shefford can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
What does TR19 mean?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Is Great Shefford in your area?
Yes. We cover Great Shefford and the rest of West Berkshire, within our South East and London area. For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What should we do before the deep clean?
Just put away food and small items, and let us in. We’ll need the cooking equipment switched off and cool when we arrive.
Can you clean the extract at the same time?
We can. Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean and the whole space is cleaned in one go. You get a TR19 certificate and photo report for the extract.
What affects the quote in Great Shefford
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- The size of the system
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- What state the system is in
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, it’s useful to have:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
What a clean won’t put right
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
- Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
- The inside of the extract system
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will tell you honestly.

Related advice
Common problems we fix in Great Shefford
Every service sends grease into the air. Some is caught by the extract, but some settles on walls, ceilings and equipment. In time, it forms a tacky film that daily cleaning struggles with.
Clients usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- Cooking equipment caked in carbon
- Greasy, slippery kitchen floors
- Build-up behind fryers and ovens
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Great Shefford, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
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. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
