How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Headington Hill
Grease that sits on a surface for long enough is hard to shift with daily cleaning. Deep cleaning uses methods suited to the build-up and the time to do it properly. If you’re dealing with build-up behind fryers and ovens and floors with grease along the edges, we can put it right.
Work in a smaller place like Headington Hill is planned around your opening hours.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
Many kitchens book the next deep clean before we leave. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean all year round.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Headington Hill kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 203 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 34 sandwich bars and takeaways within about 1.5 miles of central Headington Hill. Kitchens like these build up grease behind and under equipment, on walls and on ceilings. Food hygiene inspections in Headington Hill are the job of Oxford City council’s environmental health team. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
A summer deep clean suits schools such as Cheney School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Warneford Hospital (about less than half a mile south), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals. If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Holywell Manor is about 1 mile west), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning.

How the job changes from site to site
School and care home kitchens
School holidays are a good time for a deep clean, ready for the new term.
Floors
Kitchen floors collect grease, food debris and grime. Floors are done at the end, including under and behind equipment where it can be moved safely.
Why act early in Headington Hill
A greasy kitchen is a harder place to work. Slippery floors and sticky surfaces make the job harder and less pleasant. Deep cleaning gives the team a better place to work. In a smaller place like Headington Hill, a site that has to close is felt quickly.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Your opening hours decide when we come to Headington Hill, not ours.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Common questions in Headington Hill
Is Headington Hill within the area you cover?
Yes, Headington Hill is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Can school kitchens in Headington Hill be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 58 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Headington Hill. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
Can you clean outside our opening hours?
Most deep cleans happen when the kitchen is closed, so service isn’t lost. For schools, the holidays are a good time.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes pictures, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
