Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Do not let the extract cleaning slip
Once it’s deep cleaned, daily cleaning goes further. Keep up the routine, especially behind and under equipment where you can so build-up stays down.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well instead of chasing grime later.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Highfield, done properly
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, along with the time and access a daily clean doesn’t have. We are often asked to deal with greasy, slippery kitchen floors and grease stains on walls near the cooking line, across fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and floors and floor drains.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Highfield are often in older buildings, with drains and grease traps that have been there for years. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is typically the first sign.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. A site near Highfield normally has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
- We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
- We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The postcode and the type of business
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- A few general shots of the system
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Highfield kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 223 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 109 sandwich bars and takeaways in Highfield and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen tidy, but kitchens like these still need a periodic deep clean. It’s Southampton council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Highfield. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
Where a church or community hall near Highfield Church, or anywhere in Highfield, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Royal South Hants Hospital about 1.2 miles south, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Highfield doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your opening times and we will plan around them.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. We fit the work around how the site operates.
What does commercial kitchen deep cleaning cost?
Size, equipment and the level of build-up all affect the price. We can quote from photos or a site visit and give you a fixed price.
Do inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?
Yes, inspectors look at the whole kitchen. We can’t promise a particular rating but a deep clean gives you a clean starting point.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Highfield and across Southampton. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Common problems we fix in Highfield
Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Combined with grease, it becomes the kind of mess pests like if it is not cleared.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- Cooking equipment caked in carbon
- A kitchen that needs a clean start
- A clean-up ahead of an inspection
- Food debris that could attract pests
Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Highfield Church of England Primary School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.
