Common questions in Highgate
Do you work in school kitchens around Highgate out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 34 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Highgate. Send us your term dates when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will fit the work in.
Which council inspects kitchens in Highgate?
In Highgate, it’s Haringey council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor for clients who vet their contractors.
What do you do with what you remove?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes, and it often makes sense. We clean inside the extract system to TR19 while the kitchen around it is deep cleaned.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it, and the quote is based on that.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Highgate
Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean. We clean the extract system and the room it serves and the whole kitchen benefits. It can also be booked on its own, between extract cleans. If you’re dealing with food debris trapped under the range and a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean, we can put it right.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. Regular grease trap cleaning keeps a kitchen in Highgate from adding to the problem.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The scale of the work
- The condition we find in the survey
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Any permits to work or inductions
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Send what you can of the following:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
There’s no standard price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Highgate kitchens: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 64 pubs, bars and clubs and about 5 hotels and guest houses as registered food businesses within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Highgate. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Compact London kitchens collect grease in tight corners, which an overnight deep clean can reach. Environmental health officers from Haringey council inspect food businesses in Highgate. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
Hall kitchens near Highgate United Reformed Church or elsewhere in Highgate may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Highgate Private Hospital, about 0.6 miles north-west, is the nearest hospital to Highgate. School kitchens, at schools like St Michael's Church of England Primary School for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.
Highgate is about 2 miles north-east of Hampstead, in Greater London.

Leave it or put it right?
Grime behind and under equipment can attract pests. Cleaning it out removes what they’re looking for, which is far better than dealing with an infestation. Shared walls, risers and roofs mean a problem at one London site seldom stays put.
We do not list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we’ll explain what it covers.

What the work involves, part by part
Floors
Grease builds up along the edges and under equipment. That’s where we focus.
Cooking equipment
We clean the cooking equipment itself, inside and out once it’s switched off and cooled.
Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind all year round.
Old grease hardens with every service. A deep clean now saves a much bigger job later and keeps the kitchen in shape for an EHO visit.
What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Highgate.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Getting ready for the visit
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Move anything stored near the system
