Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Norwood New Town
Can you come to Norwood New Town after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Can school kitchens in Norwood New Town be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Around Norwood New Town, the Food Standards Agency lists about 35 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Full insurance covers our work, and we’ve been trading since 2009.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, and we can quote to improve the access.
Are you accredited?
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 are fully insured.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
The kitchen’s size and equipment decide it, and a deep clean normally takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. You’ll know before any work starts.
Kitchen deep cleaning in Norwood New Town, done properly
In Norwood New Town, we fit deep cleans around the hours the kitchen cooks. Most are done overnight, early in the morning or at the weekend, so the kitchen is ready for the next service. Schools can book during the holidays. We are often asked to deal with build-up behind fryers and ovens and a kitchen that needs a clean start, on walls and ceilings, ranges and ovens and stainless steel surfaces.
London kitchens work hard in small spaces, so grease collects behind equipment, on ceilings and in drains and grease traps. For a kitchen in Norwood New Town, the work is usually done overnight, between the last service and the first.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

What happens if it’s left?
Grime behind and under equipment can attract pests. A deep clean takes away the food source and prevention is much easier than cure. A busy site in Norwood New Town builds up dirt and wear quickly, so putting it off makes the eventual job larger.
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.

What your team can do, and what needs us
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

Many London buildings have a managing agent, a security desk or a permit-to-work system, so tell us who to contact in Norwood New Town.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
- High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
- Equipment is cleaned, along with the areas behind and under it.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
- Don’t let the extract cleaning slip
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
We finish with the floors and leave them dry and ready. Your team can come in and set up as normal at the start of the next shift.
Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.
