About our kitchen deep cleaning in New Eltham
The work runs from top to bottom. Ceilings and high-level areas come first, followed by walls, equipment and floors, so nothing falls onto surfaces we have already cleaned. Cooking equipment is switched off and allowed to cool first. We’re often asked to deal with preparation for an EHO inspection and a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean, across floors and floor drains, fryers and grills and stainless steel surfaces.
London’s sewers are known for fatbergs, built up from fat, oil and grease washed down drains. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Why deal with it now?
Staff notice when a kitchen is grimy. Slippery floors and sticky surfaces make the job harder and less pleasant. A clean kitchen is safer and easier to run. For a site in New Eltham, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll talk you through it.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. If your building in New Eltham has sign-in rules, permits or key holders, mention them when you book.

Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. Kitchens in New Eltham get their food hygiene inspections from Greenwich council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.

Should we deep clean before an environmental health visit?
Environmental health officers look at the cleanliness of the whole premises and equipment. A deep clean deals with the areas daily cleaning misses, which helps you present a clean kitchen.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move. Some equipment is fixed or connected in a way that means it shouldn’t be moved, and we will tell you where that applies.

How the job changes from site to site
School and care home kitchens
Kitchens in schools, care homes and hospitals need cleaning that fits around mealtimes. We work outside meal service.
Walls and ceilings
Ceilings above the cooking line often darken with grease. They’re cleaned as part of the deep clean in a way that suits the finish.
Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Deal with spills right away
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
We put equipment back where it belongs so your team can start up as normal. There’s nothing extra to do once it’s back in service.
Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Keeping on top of them with deep cleans saves effort and helps the equipment last.
