Kitchen deep cleaning in North Leigh
Environmental health officers inspect the cleanliness of the whole premises. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A thorough deep clean brings every surface up to standard whenever it’s needed. The work covers fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and stainless steel surfaces, and people most often call us about a kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit and greasy, slippery kitchen floors.
In a village or hamlet like North Leigh, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
Good records are part of the job. 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. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What affects the quote in North Leigh
You’ll get a fixed price before we start. It’s based on:
- The scale of the work
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
Many jobs can be priced from photos and some basics. Useful things to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The site address and the type of premises
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Do not let the extract cleaning slip
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
Many kitchens book the next deep clean before we leave. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean all year round.
Old grease hardens with every service. Booking one sooner keeps the work manageable and keeps the kitchen in shape for an EHO visit.
What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

Questions from North Leigh
Can the work in North Leigh be done at night or at weekends?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The site is handed back ready to open. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Can school kitchens in North Leigh be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 3 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of North Leigh, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Booking early in the term gives the best choice of holiday dates.
Can you clean behind fixed equipment?
Behind and under the equipment is where the worst build-up is, so we reach it wherever it’s safe to do so. We’ll agree what’s movable before work begins.
Do you do the kitchen and extract together?
Yes, and it often makes sense. We clean inside the extract system to TR19 while the kitchen around it is deep cleaned.
Which records should we keep?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
It covers the full kitchen, from ceiling to floor. You will know exactly what’s included before work begins and it’s all in the fixed quote.
What accreditations do you have?
Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
The process
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. The work on site takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Visits to a village like North Leigh are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First, we walk the kitchen with you and agree the scope.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt does not fall on clean areas.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- Floors are cleaned last and the kitchen is left ready for the next service.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Clear the space around the work
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
