Kitchen deep cleaning across Priestwood

Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Priestwood

We clean from the ceiling down. High surfaces come first, then walls and equipment, then floors last so dirt doesn’t land on areas already done. Equipment is switched off and left to cool before work begins. The work covers behind and under equipment, ranges and ovens and fryers and grills, and common reasons people get in touch are a floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean and hardened deposits on kitchen equipment.

For a kitchen in or near Priestwood, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.

A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

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.

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.

Fixed quotes for kitchen deep cleaning in Priestwood

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
  • Whether several sites go on one quote
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Where the site is and how we reach it

What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.

What to send for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

When it’s something else

In fairness, some problems need a different fix:

  • Pests already in the kitchen
  • Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
  • Worn or broken surfaces that cleaning cannot restore

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we will say what we think.

Where we work

  • Ranges and ovens
  • Stainless steel surfaces
  • Behind and under equipment
  • Walls and ceilings
  • Fryers and grills
  • Floors and floor drains

Part by part

Behind and under equipment

Daily cleaning rarely reaches here so it’s often the dirtiest part of the kitchen.

Canopy exteriors

The outside of the canopy collects grease and dust. We clean the exterior as part of the deep clean.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.

What we do, step by step

We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen. Somewhere like Priestwood, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.

  1. We start by agreeing which areas and equipment are in the clean.
  2. Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
  3. Ceilings, walls and high-level surfaces are cleaned first, working downwards.
  4. The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
  5. We finish with the floors and leave the kitchen ready to use.

Before we arrive

  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

Getting a quote

To help us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

Grease on walls, ceilings and equipment is fuel close to the cooking. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen, alongside the grease in the extract. A deep clean takes it away. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.

We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Priestwood

Look up Priestwood on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 5 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Priestwood. Every one of them has corners the daily clean doesn’t reach. It’s Gravesham council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Priestwood. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.

Where a church or community hall near Church of Our Lady of the Meadow, or anywhere in Priestwood, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Meopham School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. Historic houses such as Cobham College (about 2.6 miles north-east) are part of the area around Priestwood, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps.
