Kitchen deep cleaning in How Green
For kitchens in How Green, we plan deep cleans around service. Most are done overnight, early in the morning or at the weekend so there’s no lost trade. School kitchens are often done in the holidays. Common call-outs are for a kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit and grease built up on walls and ceilings, across behind and under equipment, stainless steel surfaces and floors and floor drains.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Common problems we fix in How Green
Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. Daily wiping only deals with the surface and it thickens over time.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near How Green (the nearest hospital is Tandridge Priory, about 5.4 miles north-west), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

Why it’s worth doing now in How Green
Old grease hardens and bonds to surfaces. A kitchen deep cleaned regularly is quicker to clean each time, and surfaces last better. In a place like How Green, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Every one of them has corners the daily clean doesn’t reach. Environmental health officers from Sevenoaks council inspect food businesses in How Green. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.

Questions from How Green
Can school kitchens in How Green be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Around How Green, the Food Standards Agency lists about 3 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in How Green?
The local authority for How Green is Sevenoaks council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?
Yes. 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.
Are you accredited?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. We collect grease, debris and waste water as we go rather than letting it spread.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
The kitchen’s size and equipment decide it, though a deep clean typically takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. You’ll know before any work starts.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Write down what gets cleaned and when
Equipment is put back in place before we leave so your team can start up as normal. There’s nothing extra to do once it’s back in service.
A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Combining them with extract cleans covers the room and the system together.
Honest limits
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- A blocked or overflowing grease trap
- Grease in the ducts above the kitchen
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
