Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hither Green
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. We’re often asked to deal with a clean-up ahead of an inspection and a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean, on ranges and ovens, fryers and grills and behind and under equipment.
Across London, council environmental health teams inspect food businesses, and walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of the picture. A deep clean ahead of an inspection, or after one, is a common reason kitchens in Hither Green get in touch.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Common questions in Hither Green
Can a school kitchen in Hither Green be done out of term time?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. The FSA’s register shows about 38 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Hither Green. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
How do you handle parking and loading in Hither Green?
We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. If the building has a loading slot system, we’ll book into it.
Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?
We can. Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean and the whole space is cleaned in one go. The extract clean comes with a certificate and photo report.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we will suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What does commercial kitchen deep cleaning cost?
Size, equipment and the level of build-up all affect the price. Send us pictures or details, or we can visit, and you will get a fixed quote.
Which areas does a deep clean cover?
It takes in the places daily cleaning doesn’t reach, from the ceiling down to the floor behind the equipment. The cooking equipment is cleaned too.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
Most deep cleans take a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one, including setting up and clearing away. It’s planned around your opening times.
Which accreditations do you hold?
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’re fully insured.
Hither Green kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 279 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 145 takeaways in and around Hither Green, up to about a mile and a half out. Every one of them has corners the daily clean does not reach. Environmental health officers from Lewisham council inspect food businesses in Hither Green. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are normally done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day.
School kitchens, at schools like Brindishe Manor School for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; University Hospital Lewisham, about 0.7 miles west, is the nearest hospital to Hither Green.

When to call us in Hither Green
Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Mixed with grease, it forms a layer that can attract pests if it is not cleared.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- A kitchen that needs a clean start
- A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
- Food debris trapped under the range
- A clean-up ahead of an inspection
If you serve passing trade near Hither Green station, a grease trap on a regular schedule keeps the drains running through busy weeks.

How the visit works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. Most of the time goes on the work itself, and that takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. Expect the work in Hither Green to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.
- We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- We work from the top down, starting with ceilings and walls.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Move anything stored near the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
