Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Mortimer
Across Mortimer, we deep clean restaurant and pub kitchens, hotel kitchens, school kitchens and more, whatever the size of the operation. We agree what’s included before the visit and quote a fixed price. Typical jobs include a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and floors with grease along the edges, on floors and floor drains, walls and ceilings and ranges and ovens.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Mortimer are often in older buildings, with drains and grease traps that have been there for years. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is usually the first sign.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Common problems we fix in Mortimer
Every service sends grease into the air. The canopy catches a lot of it but the rest lands on nearby surfaces. In time, it forms a tacky film that daily cleaning struggles with.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Signs of pests drawn by food debris
- A kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
Historic houses such as Stratfield Saye House (about 3.6 miles south-east) are part of the area around Mortimer, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps.

What a clean will not put right
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- The inside of the extract system
- Equipment that isn’t working properly
- Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll tell you honestly before you book.
Where we work
- Walls and ceilings
- Ranges and ovens

What affects the quote in Mortimer
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- What state the system is in
- The times the site is available
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
What staff can safely do
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Mortimer: your questions answered
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Mortimer?
That is West Berkshire council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Mortimer. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Can you get to a site in Mortimer?
Yes, Mortimer is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, always. It’s a dated, written report with photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. File it with your fire safety records.
What do you do with what you remove?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Do you recommend a next date?
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, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
Typically, a deep clean takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Bigger kitchens or heavy build-up need more time and we’ll say so when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How it works
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. We plan the journey to Mortimer and bring what the job is likely to need.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
How to prepare
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Tell us where we can park and unload
