For landlords and multi-site operators
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Hangleton
Grease that sits on a surface for long enough is hard to shift with daily cleaning. We use cleaning methods that suit the deposit and the surface and the time to do it properly. If you’re dealing with greasy, slippery kitchen floors and a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean, we can put it right.
In a place like Hangleton, kitchens often sit in older buildings with older drains. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is normally the first sign.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Keeping the system healthy
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Do not wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Wipe splashes before they harden
Equipment is put back in place before we leave, ready for your staff to check and start up. Nothing special is needed after that from then on.
Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and helps the equipment last.
What kitchen deep cleaning can’t fix
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what this work cannot put right:
- Appliance breakdowns
- An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think before you book.
What we work on in Hangleton
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Fryers and grills
- Ranges and ovens
- Behind and under equipment
- Floors and floor drains
- Walls and ceilings
Leave it or put it right?
In Hangleton, as elsewhere, grease does not stay in one place. Cleaning one without the other leaves half the problem, so many kitchens book both. Light use slows the build-up but doesn’t stop it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You’ll have a fixed price before any work starts.
Why book with us
- Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
- Every job surveyed first
- Full insurance on every job
- Photo reports with every job
Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Hangleton
Crumbs and scraps end up behind the cooking line. Combined with grease, it becomes the kind of mess pests like unless it’s cleaned out.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Signs of pests drawn by food debris
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- Grease built up on walls and ceilings
- A clean-up ahead of an inspection
If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Portslade Manor is about 0.9 miles south-west), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning.
What your quote should include
- Whether they’re fully insured
- If they look at the system before pricing
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- Whether the figure could change on the day
Questions from Hangleton
Can you come to Hangleton after we close?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Hangleton doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, mention when the site is quiet.
Can school kitchens in Hangleton be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. There are about 33 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Hangleton. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you clean the extract at the same time?
Yes, and it often makes sense. The extract is cleaned inside to TR19 while the kitchen around it is deep cleaned.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, and the emergency line covers the rest.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
Typically, a deep clean takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. A large or heavily soiled kitchen takes longer, and we’ll tell you how long to expect.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
Every kitchen is different, so we quote once we know what’s involved. You get a fixed quote, normally within one working day.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Hangleton: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 23 pubs and bars within about 1.5 miles of central Hangleton. Where they run a kitchen, it needs the same deep cleaning and grease trap care as any restaurant. Food hygiene inspections in Hangleton are the job of Brighton and Hove council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Montefiore Hospital, about 2.3 miles south-east, is the nearest hospital to Hangleton. School kitchens, at schools like Hangleton Primary School for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.

What we do, step by step
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. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Everything the job in Hangleton needs is worked out beforehand, from the survey.
- We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt does not fall on clean areas.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
