What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • What state the system is in
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

What to send for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is

Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Hawley

Environmental health officers inspect the cleanliness of the whole premises. Greasy walls, dirty ceilings and grime behind equipment all count. A deep clean puts the whole kitchen in good order whenever it’s needed. If you have a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean and a kitchen that needs a clean start, we can put it right.

Somewhere as small as Hawley, the kitchens that need a deep clean are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.

Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part

Behind and under equipment

Daily cleaning rarely reaches here, which is why build-up gets so bad.

Floors

The worst floor grime hides along edges and under the line. We pay particular attention there.

When to call us in Hawley

When the kitchen is flat out, cleaning shrinks to the basics. Weeks of that, wherever the kitchen is in Hawley, let grime build behind and above the equipment.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • Grime behind and under cooking equipment
  • Greasy, slippery kitchen floors
  • Food debris that could attract pests
  • Grease stains on walls near the cooking line

If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of St John the Baptist or anywhere in Hawley, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Questions to ask before booking

FAQs for Hawley

Can you work in school kitchens in Hawley during the holidays?

Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 11 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Hawley, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we will plan around them.

Which environmental health team covers Hawley?

The local authority for Hawley is Dartford council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.

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 before work begins.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?

Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.

Which sectors do you work in?

We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, as well as food production and leisure sites.

Do inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?

A clean kitchen is part of what an EHO looks at. Deep cleaning takes care of grime in the places that are easy to miss, though it’s the daily routine that keeps it there.

Can you clean the extract at the same time?

Yes, we can. Both can be done on the same visit or close together, depending on the size of the job.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.

Why deal with it now?

In Hawley, as elsewhere, grease does not stay in one place. Cleaning the extract but not the room, or the other way round, only does half the job and that is why many kitchens plan the two together. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.

Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we’ll price it together.

Kitchen deep cleaning around Hawley

Food Standards Agency records include about 21 pubs, bars and clubs and about 3 hotels and B&Bs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hawley. Wherever they cook, the kitchen and its drains need the same attention as a restaurant’s. Food hygiene inspections in Hawley are the job of Dartford council’s environmental health team. 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.

For schools such as Sutton-At-Hone Church of England Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually booked for the holidays. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Darenth Park Hospital (about 1.7 miles north-east), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.

What happens on the day

There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Hawley.

  1. We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
  2. Appliances are switched off to cool while we protect the areas that need it.
  3. High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt doesn’t fall on clean areas.
  4. Equipment is cleaned inside and out, along with the areas behind and underneath it.
  5. We finish with the floors and leave the kitchen ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

  • Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
  • The inside of the extract system

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