Lodge Lees: your questions answered
Do you cover smaller places like Lodge Lees?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Lodge Lees included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you come to Lodge Lees after we close?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Lodge Lees keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. One number covers all your sites in our area, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
Which records should we keep?
Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
How do you protect the area?
Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
Anything we cannot reach goes on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
About our kitchen deep cleaning in Lodge Lees
Think of a deep clean as a full check-up for the kitchen. The hidden corners get as much attention as the obvious ones and hand the kitchen back ready for service. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. Common call-outs are for greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings and a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean, on ranges and ovens, walls and ceilings and behind and under equipment.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

What else we do in Lodge Lees
Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Lodge Lees
Warm, greasy air rises and settles on the ceiling. Over time, it stains and can begin to drip onto the area below.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Food debris trapped under the range
- Food debris that could attract pests
- A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary Magdalene or elsewhere in Lodge Lees, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Lodge Lees
There are about 3 restaurants, cafés and canteens in and around Lodge Lees, up to about a mile and a half out, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. Environmental health officers from Canterbury City council inspect food businesses in Lodge Lees. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time. At about 58 miles from central London, Lodge Lees sits well inside the area we cover. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site.
If you run a kitchen in an older building near Lodge Lees, such as a historic house like Acrise Place (about 3.4 miles south), older drains make a working grease trap all the more important.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
How the job changes from site to site
Behind and under equipment
Food debris behind equipment can attract pests. Clearing it out is a core part of a deep clean.
Walls and ceilings
Wall cladding and tiles around the cooking line get greasy fast. They get a thorough degrease, including the joints and edges.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Mop right into the edges and corners
- Deal with spills right away
- Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
Floors are clean and dry by the time we have finished. Your team can come in and set up as normal when the kitchen opens.
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.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Lodge Lees and across Kent. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
When it’s something else
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
- An infestation that needs specialist treatment
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think.
