How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Orpington
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A thorough deep clean brings every surface up to standard before or after an inspection. Typical jobs include build-up behind fryers and ovens and cooking equipment caked in carbon, across fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and stainless steel surfaces.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
Every visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the job changes from site to site
Floors
Kitchen floors collect grease, food debris and grime. Floors are done at the end, including under and behind equipment where it can be moved safely.
Canopy exteriors
The inside of the canopy, the plenum and the ducts need a TR19 clean. Many kitchens book both together.
Questions from Orpington
Can you work in Orpington outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Orpington keeps running as normal. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which environmental health team covers Orpington?
Food hygiene inspections in Orpington are carried out by Bromley council. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
How far ahead should we book?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
How long does a kitchen deep clean take?
Most deep cleans take a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one including the floors at the end. It’s planned around your opening times.
Where does the waste go?
We contain it and take it with us. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
Behind and under the equipment is where the worst build-up is, so it’s a priority. We check what can be moved safely at the start.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Every certificate and report from each visit, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
Common problems we fix in Orpington
In Orpington and everywhere else, a working kitchen takes a hammering. Heat, steam, spills and splashes all add up over time.
Common reasons sites call us are:
- A kitchen taken over in poor condition
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
- Grease stains on walls near the cooking line
- Food debris that could attract pests
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Orpington Hospital, about 1.5 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Orpington.
Before you book anyone
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
- Whether a written report and photos are included
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Whether a survey comes first
Why deal with it now?
Built-up grease around the cooking line is something that can burn. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen, alongside the grease in the extract. Deep cleaning removes it. Leaving it on a busy London site only adds to the work.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What a clean will not put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- The inside of the extract system
- Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
- An active pest infestation, which needs a pest control contractor
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.

Commercial kitchens in Orpington
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 102 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 60 takeaways across Orpington and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). The busier the kitchen, the faster grease builds up where nobody wipes every day. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day. It’s Bromley council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Orpington. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you run a kitchen near St Mary Cray station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Perry Hall Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
- Do not wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
A deep-cleaned kitchen is easier to keep clean. Keep up the routine, especially behind and under equipment where you can, and the next deep clean is lighter work.
Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and helps the equipment last.
