Advice
Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Littleworth
Environmental health officers inspect the cleanliness of the whole premises. Greasy walls, dirty ceilings and grime behind equipment all count. A deep clean puts the whole kitchen in good order before or after an inspection. The work covers stainless steel surfaces, floors and floor drains and behind and under equipment, and common reasons people get in touch are a whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned and floors with grease along the edges.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: 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, which is where we come in.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
What we are called out for in Littleworth
Crumbs and scraps end up behind the cooking line. Mixed with grease, it forms a layer that can attract pests unless it’s cleaned out.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
- A kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit
- Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
- Food debris that could attract pests
For schools such as Jolesfield CofE Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are normally booked for the holidays.
Questions to ask before you book
- If they look at the system before pricing
- When they can work, and whether that’s outside your opening hours
- What records you will receive afterwards
- How they set the interval to the next visit
Part by part

For landlords and multi-site operators
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Why act early in Littleworth
Built-up grease around the cooking line is something that can burn. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen, alongside the grease in the extract. Deep cleaning removes it. It’s simpler to plan the work at Littleworth now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

Questions from Littleworth
Which council inspects kitchens in Littleworth?
That is Horsham council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Littleworth. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Is Littleworth within the area you cover?
Yes, Littleworth is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
What is TR19?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked, and it takes a risk-based approach.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes. A TR19® extract clean and a deep clean fit well together and the whole space is cleaned in one go. You get a TR19 certificate and photo report for the extract.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
What does commercial kitchen deep cleaning cost?
After a look at the kitchen, from photos or on site, we send you a fixed quote. Just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll arrange it and the quote is usually with you within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Do not let debris build up behind the line
- Do not let the extract cleaning slip
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
We finish with the floors and leave them dry and ready. Staff can get straight back to work when the kitchen opens.
A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Pairing them with TR19 extract cleaning keeps the whole kitchen on track.
