About our kitchen deep cleaning in Heart's Delight
We clean from the ceiling down. Ceilings and high-level areas come first, followed by walls, equipment and floors, so nothing falls onto surfaces we have already cleaned. Equipment is switched off and left to cool before any work starts. If you have food debris that could attract pests and a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean, we can put it right, from behind and under equipment, fryers and grills and stainless steel surfaces onwards.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

What the work involves, part by part
Behind and under equipment
Behind and beneath the cooking line, grease and food debris collect. Where equipment can be moved safely, we move it and clean underneath.
Canopy exteriors
The outside of the canopy collects grease and dust. The outside of the canopy is cleaned with the rest of the kitchen.

Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Deal with spills right away
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
- Mop right into the edges and corners
- Do not let debris build up behind the line
We put equipment back where it belongs so your team can start up as normal. Nothing special is needed after that from then on.
Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
How we price kitchen deep cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The number of sites or systems
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Site rules, permits and inductions
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before work begins.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
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:
- Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
- Grease in the ducts above the kitchen
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.
What we work on in Heart's Delight
- Ranges and ovens
- Floors and floor drains
- Walls and ceilings
- Fryers and grills

Leave it or put it right?
Built-up grease around the cooking line is something that can burn. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen on top of what’s in the ductwork. A deep clean takes it away. It’s simpler to plan the work at Heart's Delight now than to arrange it in a hurry later.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
