Kitchen deep cleaning in Highleigh

Honest limits

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what kitchen deep cleaning will not do:

  • Pests already in the kitchen
  • Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
  • Grease in the ducts above the kitchen

If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Stainless steel surfaces
  • Ranges and ovens
  • Walls and ceilings
  • Fryers and grills
  • Floors and floor drains
  • Behind and under equipment

How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Highleigh

A good daily routine keeps the surfaces clean but some areas never get touched. Behind and under equipment, and high up on walls and ceilings, grease quietly builds up. A deep clean deals with all of it while the kitchen is closed. If you have hardened deposits on kitchen equipment and grime behind and under cooking equipment, we can put it right.

Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.

Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Why act early in Highleigh

In any kitchen in Highleigh, the extract and the room it serves get greasy side by side. Cleaning one without the other leaves half the problem, so many kitchens book both. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.

The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What you get with us

  • A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease
  • A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
  • Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
  • We’re fully insured

See our cost guide or our accreditations and certificates.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.

Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across West Sussex. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.

What we do, step by step

The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Highleigh knowing what to expect.

  1. A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
  2. Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
  3. Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
  4. We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
  5. The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.

Preparing for the visit

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Can you come out in an emergency?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

What do you do to protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • The size of the system
  • The times the site is available
  • Travel, parking and unloading

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

What we need to know

To speed up the quote, send us:

  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • A few general shots of the system
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

Do you need kitchen deep cleaning in Highleigh?

Busy periods leave little time for anything beyond the essentials. A few busy weeks in Highleigh or anywhere else are enough for grime to build in the hard-to-reach places.

Common reasons sites call us include:

  • Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment
  • Preparation for an EHO inspection
  • A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
  • Grease stains on walls near the cooking line

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Sidlesham Primary School or anywhere near Highleigh, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • Whether they recommend a next date
