Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hackney Wick

For kitchens in Hackney Wick, we plan deep cleans around service. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends so there’s no lost trade. School kitchens are often done in the holidays. If you’re dealing with a kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit and cooking equipment caked in carbon, we can help.

Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. Regular grease trap cleaning keeps a kitchen in Hackney Wick from adding to the problem.

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 are fully insured.

When it’s something else

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen deep cleaning will not do:

  • Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
  • The inside of the extract system
  • Equipment that isn’t working properly

If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we work on in Hackney Wick

  • Floors and floor drains
  • Fryers and grills

Fixed quotes for kitchen deep cleaning in Hackney Wick

You will get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing

Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.

What we need to know

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • A few general shots of the system
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Hackney Wick questions

Do you clean school kitchens in Hackney Wick in the summer holidays?

Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. Food Standards Agency records list about 36 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Hackney Wick. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Hackney Wick?

In Hackney Wick, it’s Tower Hamlets council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.

Do you look at the system first?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. A fixed quote follows.

Can you clean outside our opening hours?

We book it for when you’re closed. Deep cleans happen when the kitchen is closed and leave the kitchen ready for the next shift.

Does the report say when we need you again?

Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.

Will I get paperwork for my records?

Yes. You get a written report with pictures after each visit, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.

Keeping the system healthy

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
  • Wipe splashes before they harden
  • Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
  • Plan the next deep clean in advance

Many kitchens book the next deep clean before we leave. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind all year round.

Visible build-up behind equipment or on the ceiling is a clear sign. Dealing with it now keeps it from spreading and drawing pests in.

Multi-site and managed buildings

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

Hackney Wick kitchens: local notes

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 17 food manufacturers and packers in and around Hackney Wick, up to about a mile and a half out. Factories and packing rooms need deep cleaning planned around production runs. Environmental health officers from Tower Hamlets council inspect food businesses in Hackney Wick. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day.

Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Homerton University Hospital, about 1.2 miles north-west, is the nearest hospital to Hackney Wick. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Mossbourne Riverside Academy, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. If you look after a hall kitchen near St Mary of Eton or anywhere in Hackney Wick, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Why act early in Hackney Wick

An inspection can come at any time. A kitchen with grime behind equipment and on ceilings is harder to defend, however good the daily routine. Keeping on top of it with deep cleans is far less stressful. It’s better booked as a planned job in Hackney Wick than handled as an emergency.

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

Part by part

Cooking equipment

Ranges, ovens, grills and fryers are cleaned inside and out, with each piece switched off and cool first.

Canopy exteriors

A clean canopy shows right away. Including it in the deep clean leaves nothing out.

What happens on the day

There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Most London sites can’t stop for the day, so work in Hackney Wick is usually done overnight, early in the morning or at weekends.

  1. A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
  2. Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
  3. We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
  4. Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
  5. Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
