Why it’s worth doing now in Marks Tey
Food debris and grease in hidden corners can draw pests in. A deep clean takes away the food source and prevention is much easier than cure. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

About our kitchen deep cleaning in Marks Tey
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. We’re often asked to deal with grease stains on walls near the cooking line and preparation for an EHO inspection, on stainless steel surfaces, ranges and ovens and floors and floor drains.
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.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What we do, step by step
There are three stages on the day: set-up, the treatment itself and the sign-off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. The timing of a visit to Marks Tey is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, 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’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Marks Tey
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 3 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Marks Tey, up to about a mile and a half out. Daily cleaning keeps a kitchen tidy, but kitchens like these still need a periodic deep clean. About 45 miles out from central London, Marks Tey is part of the South East area we work across. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours. Food hygiene inspections in Marks Tey are the job of Colchester council’s environmental health team. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.

Common problems we fix in Marks Tey
Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Mixed with grease, it forms a layer that can attract pests unless it’s cleaned out.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
- Grease built up on walls and ceilings
If you run a kitchen in an older building near Marks Tey, such as a historic house like Layer Marney Tower (about 3.9 miles south), older drains make a working grease trap all the more important.

Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, with visits on a regular schedule.
What do you do to protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.

Looking after it afterwards
So the system stays in good health:
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
When we leave, the kitchen is ready to cook. We walk round with you or your manager before we go.
Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and helps the equipment last.
