Kitchen deep cleaning near Lydd

Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lydd

A deep clean pairs well with a TR19® clean of the extract. We clean the extract system and the room it serves, so the whole space is done in one go. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. Common call-outs are for food debris that could attract pests and floors with grease along the edges, across behind and under equipment, walls and ceilings and stainless steel surfaces.

For a kitchen near Lydd, deep cleans are booked around opening hours, often on a closed day.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

How it works

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes one overnight or weekend visit for many kitchens, longer for large sites. A site near Lydd normally has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.

  1. We agree the scope of the clean and the time to attend.
  2. We make sure all cooking equipment is off and cool.
  3. High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
  4. We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
  5. The floors are cleaned and the kitchen is checked with you.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Lydd questions

Which environmental health team covers Lydd?

In Lydd, it’s Folkestone and Hythe council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.

Can you work in Lydd outside opening hours?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Lydd can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

Do you provide a certificate or report?

Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with photos of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

Do you work in Lydd?

Yes. Our area takes in London and the counties of South East England, and that includes Lydd.

Can you set up regular visits?

Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.

How do you protect the area?

Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.

Looking after it afterwards

So the system stays in good health:

  • Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
  • Do not wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
  • Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
  • Do not let the extract cleaning slip

It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean all year round.

Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

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. That’s our job.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Lydd

When the kitchen is flat out, cleaning shrinks to the basics. A few busy weeks in Lydd or anywhere else are enough for grime to build in the hard-to-reach places.

The symptoms we are asked about most are:

  • Food debris trapped under the range
  • Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
  • Preparation for an EHO inspection
  • Greasy, slippery kitchen floors

A summer deep clean suits schools such as Lydd Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Questions to ask before you book

  • Whether the price is fixed
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Whether a written report and photos are included
  • Whether VAT is included

How to choose an extract cleaning contractor

Lydd kitchens: local notes

Food Standards Agency records include about 6 pubs, bars and clubs across Lydd and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Food hygiene inspections in Lydd are the job of Folkestone and Hythe council’s environmental health team. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.

If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near All Saints Church or elsewhere in Lydd, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.

When something else is needed

Not every problem is solved by kitchen deep cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:

  • Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
  • A blocked or overflowing grease trap
  • An infestation that needs specialist treatment

If you’re not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

Parts of the system we cover

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

How the job changes from site to site

Behind and under equipment

The areas behind and under equipment are where grime hides. We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move.

Floors

The worst floor grime hides along edges and under the line. We pay particular attention there.
