Hampshire · Commercial kitchen deep cleaning
Commercial kitchen deep cleaning in Houghton, Hampshire
Kitchen deep cleaning for Houghton, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- Grease built up on walls and ceilings
How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Houghton
Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen running but some areas never get touched. Grease collects behind ranges, under fryers, on high walls and across ceilings. Our deep clean goes after every one of those areas while the kitchen is closed. If you’re dealing with a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and a clean-up ahead of an inspection, we can put it right.
In a village or hamlet like Houghton, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. So every job comes with a written report and pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we are called out for in Houghton
Cooking equipment collects baked-on grease and carbon. Daily wiping only deals with the surface, so it builds up underneath.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Signs of pests drawn by food debris
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- A kitchen clean booked with the extract clean
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Mottisfont Abbey is about 3.2 miles south), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings.

Leave it or put it right?
Food debris and grease in hidden corners can draw pests in. A deep clean takes away the food source and prevention is much easier than cure. A fault that closes a site in a village like Houghton affects everyone who depends on it.
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.

What the work involves, part by part
Floors
Removing grease from the floor cuts slip risks and makes the daily mop more effective.
School and care home kitchens
Kitchens serving residents or patients need to keep cooking. We plan the work to fit.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Houghton
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
How it works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Houghton knowing what to expect.
- We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
- Appliances are switched off to cool while we protect the areas that need it.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt does not fall on clean areas.
- Equipment is cleaned inside and out, along with the areas behind and underneath it.
- The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Move anything stored near the system
Getting a quote
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and pictures, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Houghton
Food hygiene inspections in Houghton are the job of Test Valley council’s environmental health team. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
For schools such as Test Valley School, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually booked for the holidays. If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of All Saints or anywhere in Houghton, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The size of the system

What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Common questions in Houghton
Is Houghton within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Which council inspects kitchens in Houghton?
Kitchens in Houghton are inspected by Test Valley council’s environmental health officers. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Can you clean behind fixed equipment?
We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move. Not everything can be moved safely, and we’ll tell you where that applies.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What’s included in a kitchen deep clean?
The whole kitchen: walls, ceilings, floors and equipment, including behind and under equipment where it can be moved safely. We agree the exact scope with you before work begins.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.
What should we do before the deep clean?
Put food, utensils and small items away so they’re out of the way. Anything else we need, we will mention in advance.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We are fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
