Kitchen deep cleaning across Mill Hill

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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.

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.

Kitchen deep cleaning in Mill Hill, done properly

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 leave the kitchen ready to cook. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. Typical jobs include a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean and cooking equipment caked in carbon, across behind and under equipment, floors and floor drains and ranges and ovens.

Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. Regular grease trap cleaning keeps a kitchen in Mill Hill from adding to the problem.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

When it’s something else

We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so here are the limits:

  • An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
  • Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
  • Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean

If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

What the work covers

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

Fixed quotes for kitchen deep cleaning in Mill Hill

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • How easy every part is to reach
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
  • Travel, parking and unloading
  • The number of sites or systems

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. We take each of them into account and give you a fixed price before any work starts.

What to send for a quote

When you contact us, it’s useful to have:

  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

The process

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. Managed blocks in London often need contractors booked in ahead, and we’re happy to deal with the agent directly for a site in Mill Hill.

  1. We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
  2. Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
  3. We work from the top down, starting with ceilings and walls.
  4. The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
  5. Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Let us know about parking and loading
  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:

  • Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
  • Never cook with the extract switched off
  • Keep a cleaning log up to date
  • Wipe splashes before they harden

Anything we notice during the clean, such as worn flooring or a dirty extract, is pointed out. It may need an extract clean or another trade.

A regular plan means build-up never gets out of hand. Combining them with extract cleans covers the room and the system together.

Common questions in Mill Hill

How do you handle parking and loading in Mill Hill?

We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. If the building has a loading slot system, we will book into it.

Can school kitchens in Mill Hill be cleaned in the holidays?

Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 29 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Mill Hill, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.

Do I get a report after the visit?

Yes. Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

Are you accredited?

We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.

What’s TR19?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.

Do you recommend a next date?

Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.

Kitchen deep cleaning around Mill Hill

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 19 bars, pubs and nightclubs in and around Mill Hill, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they run a kitchen, it needs the same deep cleaning and grease trap care as any restaurant. It’s Barnet council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Mill Hill. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time. Fat from London kitchens contributes to sewer blockages, which is why grease traps need emptying on a schedule.

If you look after a hall kitchen near St Paul's Church or anywhere in Mill Hill, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event. Edgware Community Hospital, about 2 miles south-west, is the nearest hospital to Mill Hill; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times. If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Paul's CofE Primary School NW7 or anywhere near Mill Hill, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

What the work involves, part by part

Behind and under equipment

Food debris behind equipment can attract pests. It’s one of the main reasons kitchens book deep cleans.

School and care home kitchens

School kitchens can be deep cleaned during the holidays, ready for the new term.

Why deal with it now?

In any kitchen in Mill Hill, the extract and the room it serves get greasy side by side. Cleaning the extract but not the room, or the other way round, only does half the job and that is why many kitchens plan the two together. In Mill Hill, a planned overnight visit is much easier than closing unexpectedly.
