For landlords and multi-site operators
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Horncastle
The work runs from top to bottom. High surfaces come first, then walls and equipment, then floors last, so nothing falls onto surfaces we have already cleaned. Equipment is switched off and left to cool before we start. We are often asked to deal with grease stains on walls near the cooking line and food debris trapped under the range, on stainless steel surfaces, floors and floor drains and walls and ceilings.
Around a place like Horncastle, deep clean work tends to mean pubs, cafés and school or care home kitchens. Smaller kitchens still collect grease behind equipment and in the drains.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Why deal with it now?
Grease on walls, ceilings and equipment is fuel close to the cooking. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen, alongside the grease in the extract. A deep clean takes it away. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
- Don’t let debris build up behind the line
It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind between inspections.
A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Pairing them with TR19 extract cleaning keeps the whole kitchen on track.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. In a place like Horncastle, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
- Equipment is turned off and allowed to cool before anything else happens.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt does not fall on clean areas.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- We finish with the floors and leave the kitchen ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Advice
Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Horncastle
Can the work in Horncastle be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Can you work in school kitchens in Horncastle during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 11 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Horncastle. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, and we will fit the work in.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Are you insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
What’s included in a kitchen deep clean?
It takes in the places daily cleaning doesn’t reach, from the ceiling down to the floor behind the equipment. Equipment is cleaned inside and out.
Which sectors do you work in?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
When something else is needed
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
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
- Equipment that is not working properly
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
Where we work
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Floors and floor drains

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Horncastle
Food Standards Agency records list about 4 food manufacturers and packers across Horncastle and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Production areas need periodic deep cleaning too, high-level surfaces and equipment included. It’s Reading council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Horncastle. 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.
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Mapledurham House is about 2.8 miles north), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Michael or elsewhere in Horncastle, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.

Behind and under equipment
Daily cleaning rarely reaches here so it’s often the dirtiest part of the kitchen.
