Aftercare tips

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
  • Clean behind movable equipment regularly
  • Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
  • Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans

The kitchen is handed back ready for the next service. We go round the kitchen with you before we go.

A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Combining them with extract cleans keeps the whole kitchen on track.

About our kitchen deep cleaning in Kelvedon Hatch

In Kelvedon Hatch, we fit deep cleans around the hours the kitchen cooks. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the kitchen is ready for the next service. School kitchens are often done in the holidays. Common call-outs are for a kitchen that needs a clean start and preparation for an EHO inspection, across walls and ceilings, fryers and grills 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.

We’ve been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

We don’t publish a price list, because sites vary so much. What we look at:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • The times the site is available
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you will get one fixed quote.

Helping us quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we normally reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

Honest limits

Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:

  • An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
  • Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
  • Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer

If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What the work covers

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

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.

Kitchen deep cleaning around Kelvedon Hatch

Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Kitchens in Kelvedon Hatch get their food hygiene inspections from Brentwood council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.

Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Kelvedon Hatch

Which environmental health team covers Kelvedon Hatch?

The local authority for Kelvedon Hatch is Brentwood council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.

Can the work in Kelvedon Hatch be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Kelvedon Hatch can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

What types of premises do you cover?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.

What does TR19 mean?

It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.

How much notice should we give?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?

No two kitchens are the same, so we need to see what’s involved first. Kitchen deep cleaning is quoted at a fixed price, usually within one working day.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.

Multi-site and managed buildings

From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Common problems we fix in Kelvedon Hatch

Cooking releases grease with every service. Some is caught by the extract but the rest lands on nearby surfaces. In time, it forms a tacky film that daily cleaning struggles with.

Signs it’s time to call us include:

  • Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
  • Preparation for an EHO inspection
  • Build-up behind fryers and ovens
  • Grime in corners that pests could exploit

Hall kitchens near New Church of St Nicholas or elsewhere in Kelvedon Hatch may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

Comparing quotes

  • Proof of accreditation you can verify
  • If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed

Questions to ask before booking

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. Somewhere like Kelvedon Hatch, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.

  1. We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
  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. Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Ask for a quote

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.
