How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Little Dunmow

We clean from the ceiling down. Ceilings and high-level areas come first, followed by walls, equipment and floors, so nothing falls onto surfaces we have already cleaned. Cooking equipment is switched off and allowed to cool first. Common call-outs are for a whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned and a kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit, across floors and floor drains, walls and ceilings and fryers and grills.

Around a place like Little Dunmow, 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.

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 your team can do, and what needs us

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

Part by part

Walls and ceilings

Wall cladding and tiles around the cooking line get greasy fast. They get a thorough degrease, including the joints and edges.

Cooking equipment

We clean the cooking equipment itself, inside and out once it’s switched off and cooled.

How it works

The visit has three parts: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Your opening hours decide when we come to Little Dunmow, not ours.

  1. We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
  2. We protect what needs protecting and make equipment 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.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Getting a quote

Little Dunmow: your questions answered

Which environmental health team covers Little Dunmow?

In Little Dunmow, it’s Uttlesford council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.

Do you work at weekends in Little Dunmow?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Little Dunmow needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.

Do you move heavy equipment to clean behind it?

Behind and under the equipment is a key part of the job. If something can’t be moved safely we clean around it as fully as we can.

Is Little Dunmow in your area?

Yes. We cover Little Dunmow and the rest of Essex, within our South East and London area. To book, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Do you recommend a next date?

Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

Do you have insurance?

Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.

How much notice should we give?

For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.

Aftercare tips

Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:

  • Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
  • Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
  • Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
  • Never cook with the extract switched off

Equipment is put back in place before we leave, ready for your staff to check and start up. Nothing special is needed after that from then on.

If you can see grime on the ceiling or behind the range, it’s time. A deep clean at this point stops it getting worse and attracting pests.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Little Dunmow

Food Standards Agency records list about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens across Little Dunmow and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). The busier the kitchen, the faster grease builds up where nobody wipes every day. Kitchens in Little Dunmow get their food hygiene inspections from Uttlesford 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. We cover Little Dunmow, about 33 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site.

If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of St Mary the Virgin or anywhere in Little Dunmow, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event. For schools such as The Flitch Green Academy, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually booked for the holidays. Braintree Community Hospital, about 5.4 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Little Dunmow; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

What a clean will not put right

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
  • An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
  • A blocked or overflowing grease trap

If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Parts of the system we cover

Multi-site and managed buildings

For anyone managing more than one site, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Little Dunmow and across Essex. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
