Kitchen deep cleaning in Littlehampton, done properly
Grease that sits on a surface for long enough is hard to shift with daily cleaning. Deep cleaning uses methods suited to the build-up and the time to do it properly. The work covers fryers and grills, walls and ceilings and ranges and ovens, and the jobs we see most are a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean and hardened deposits on kitchen equipment.
In a town like Littlehampton, deep cleans and grease trap work typically mean restaurants, pubs, cafés, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. Each builds up grease where the daily clean can’t reach.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with photos of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.

What else we do in Littlehampton
When it’s something else
To be straight with you, there are a few things this work won’t fix:
- Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
Parts of the system we cover
- Walls and ceilings
- Floors and floor drains
- Behind and under equipment
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Ranges and ovens
- Fryers and grills
How the visit works
Night work is normal for us. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. A few photos of the system and its access points help us plan a visit in Littlehampton.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
- We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
- Equipment is cleaned, along with the areas behind and under it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Move anything stored near the system

Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
We finish with the floors and leave them dry and ready. Staff can get straight back to work when the kitchen opens.
Setting deep cleans on a regular cycle keeps the kitchen in good health. Pairing them with TR19 extract cleaning covers the room and the system together.
Littlehampton kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency data counts about 67 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 39 takeaways in Littlehampton and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Food hygiene inspections in Littlehampton are the job of Arun council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
Hall kitchens near The Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Littlehampton may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. For a café close to Littlehampton station, a deep clean can be done between closing and the morning rush.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. The main factors:
- How easy every part is to reach
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The condition we find in the survey
- Travel, parking and unloading
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and why the quote is fixed before we start.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- The site address and the type of premises
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Problems your staff have spotted
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Why it’s worth doing now in Littlehampton
A greasy kitchen is a harder place to work. Greasy floors are a slip risk and sticky surfaces slow everyone down and less pleasant. A clean kitchen is safer and easier to run. A small fault found now is a quick job; the same fault found later can close the site.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What we’re called out for in Littlehampton
Cooking equipment collects baked-on grease and carbon. A daily wipe-down does not touch the hardened layers, so it builds up underneath.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Signs of pests drawn by food debris
- Build-up behind fryers and ovens
School kitchens, at schools like The Littlehampton Academy for example, typically have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.

Common questions in Littlehampton
Can you come to Littlehampton after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. That way a site in Littlehampton does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Littlehampton?
That’s Arun council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Littlehampton. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work and have been trading since 2009.
Can you clean behind fixed equipment?
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.
How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Are you accredited?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, every time. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
