When it’s something else

We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning cannot restore
  • Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
  • The inside of the extract system

If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

What we work on in Great Wigborough

  • Ranges and ovens
  • Behind and under equipment
  • Floors and floor drains
  • Stainless steel surfaces
  • Fryers and grills
  • Walls and ceilings

What the work involves, part by part

Walls and ceilings

Wall cladding and tiles around the cooking line get greasy fast. We clean them thoroughly, including the joints and edges.

Canopy exteriors

A clean canopy shows right away. Cleaning it with the rest of the kitchen leaves nothing out.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.

What happens on the day

We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Great Wigborough run smoothly.

  1. First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
  2. Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
  3. High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
  4. We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
  5. We finish the floors and walk round with you.

How to prepare

  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Common problems we fix in Great Wigborough

Cooking equipment collects baked-on grease and carbon. A daily wipe-down does not touch the hardened layers and it thickens over time.

Clients usually contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Build-up behind fryers and ovens
  • Floors with grease along the edges
  • A kitchen that needs a clean start
  • Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings

Layer Marney Tower, about 2.8 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses around Great Wigborough; event kitchens at places like that work in bursts, so a deep clean after a busy season helps.

Before booking anyone

  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Whether a written report and photos are included
  • Whether the quote shows VAT

Questions to ask before booking

Keeping the system healthy

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:

  • Write down what gets cleaned and when
  • Run the extract whenever the range is on
  • Mop right into the edges and corners
  • Don’t let the extract cleaning slip

When we leave, the kitchen is ready to cook. We walk round with you or your manager before we go.

Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Keeping on top of them with deep cleans saves effort and protects the surfaces.

What happens if it’s left?

The longer grease is left, the harder it is to remove. Regular deep cleans are easier than rescuing a neglected kitchen, and surfaces last better. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.
