Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Merton
Across Merton, we deep clean restaurant and pub kitchens, hotel kitchens, school kitchens and more, whatever the size of the operation. The scope is agreed before we start, and you get a fixed quote. We are often asked to deal with a clean-up ahead of an inspection and a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean, on walls and ceilings, behind and under equipment and ranges and ovens.
London’s sewers are known for fatbergs, built up from fat, oil and grease washed down drains. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures 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
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. Expect the work in Merton to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Merton
Do you work overnight in Merton?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Merton keeps running as normal. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Do you work in school kitchens around Merton out of term?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 39 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Merton, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will fit the work in.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
That’s often where it’s dirtiest, so it’s a priority. We will agree what’s movable before work begins.
Which records should we keep?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Where does the waste go?
We take it away when we go. During the work, it’s contained to keep the area clean.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Merton
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We’re happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Merton
Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. A daily wipe-down does not touch the hardened layers and it thickens over time.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Build-up behind fryers and ovens
- Food debris that could attract pests
- A kitchen clean booked with the extract clean
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Merton Abbey Primary School or anywhere near Merton, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

How the job changes from site to site
Floors
Greasy floors are a slip hazard. We clean them last reaching under and behind equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
Walls and ceilings
Walls and ceilings collect grease carried up by heat and steam. We clean them from the top down so nothing drips onto clean areas.
When something else is needed
We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it will not cover:
- Appliance breakdowns
- Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
- An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Walls and ceilings
- Behind and under equipment
- Fryers and grills
- Ranges and ovens
- Floors and floor drains
- Stainless steel surfaces
Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Deal with spills right away
- Keep the extract running while you cook
A deep-cleaned kitchen is easier to keep clean. Keep on top of the daily routine, and the next deep clean is lighter work.
Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.
Merton kitchens: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 29 pubs, bars and clubs and about 5 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses within about 1.5 miles of central Merton. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Environmental health officers from Merton council inspect food businesses in Merton. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day. Night work is normal for London kitchens, and the kitchen is handed back ready for the morning.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like St George's Hospital about 1.1 miles north-east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. Hall kitchens near St John The Divine or elsewhere in Merton may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.
