Different parts, different methods
School and care home kitchens
School holidays are a good time for a deep clean so the kitchen is ready when pupils return.
Walls and ceilings
Wall cladding and tiles around the cooking line get greasy fast. They get a thorough degrease, including the joints and edges.
Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Old Town
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Greasy walls, dirty ceilings and grime behind equipment all count. A deep clean puts the whole kitchen in good order before or after an inspection. If you’re dealing with food debris trapped under the range and food debris that could attract pests, we can help, from ranges and ovens, behind and under equipment and fryers and grills onwards.
London kitchens work hard in small spaces, so grease collects behind equipment, on ceilings and in drains and grease traps. In Old Town, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Multi-site and managed buildings
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we will come back with a fixed quote.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
What kitchen deep cleaning cannot fix
Before you book, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Equipment that is not working properly
- An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
- Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
If you are not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will give you a straight answer.
Where we work
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Walls and ceilings
- Fryers and grills
- Floors and floor drains
- Ranges and ovens
- Behind and under equipment
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Deal with spills straight away
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
It’s easy to set the next date while we’re there. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean between inspections.
Setting deep cleans on a regular cycle keeps the kitchen in good health. Pairing them with TR19 extract cleaning covers the room and the system together.
Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Old Town
Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. A daily wipe-down does not touch the hardened layers and it thickens over time.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- Build-up behind fryers and ovens
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
For a café close to West Croydon station, a deep clean can be done between closing and the morning rush.

- What happens if part of the system can’t be accessed
- What paperwork you get at the end
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Exactly which parts of the system are covered
Kitchen deep cleaning in Old Town: local notes
Look up Old Town on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 268 restaurants, cafés and canteens and about 189 sandwich bars and takeaways across Old Town and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day. Kitchens in Old Town get their food hygiene inspections from Croydon council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Hall and church kitchens, near Croydon Minster or anywhere around Old Town, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order. Croydon University Hospital, about 1.2 miles north, is the nearest hospital to Old Town; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How big the system is
Combining work into one visit or one programme can make for a more efficient booking. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. A name and number for whoever controls access to the building in Old Town saves time on the night.
