Kitchen deep cleaning in Primrose Hill
Think of a deep clean as a full check-up for the kitchen. We look in the places daily cleaning misses and hand the kitchen back ready for service. From there, the daily routine is easier to keep up. The work covers walls and ceilings, behind and under equipment and ranges and ovens, and people most often call us about a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen and preparation for an EHO inspection.
Every food business in London is inspected by its local council’s environmental health officers, and walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of the picture. Kitchens in Primrose Hill often book a deep clean before or after an inspection.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What kitchen deep cleaning can’t fix

- Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
- Grease in the ducts above the kitchen
- A blocked or overflowing grease trap
Not sure which it is? You can call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Walls and ceilings
- Fryers and grills
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Floors and floor drains
- Behind and under equipment
- Ranges and ovens
What we do, step by step
The first job on site is protection: 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 anything from a few hours to a full night, depending on the size of the kitchen, and we clear up before we go. In a London area like Primrose Hill, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need

Leave it or put it right?
An inspection can come at any time. A kitchen with grime behind equipment and on ceilings is harder to defend even when the daily clean is good. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen inspection-ready. For a site in Primrose Hill, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.
No two sites are the same, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

What staff can safely do
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that’s where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.

- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The times the site is available
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from pictures. Try to include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- The site address and the type of premises
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Common questions in Primrose Hill

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.

How the job changes from site to site
School and care home kitchens
Kitchens in schools, care homes and hospitals need cleaning that fits around mealtimes. We work outside meal service.
Cooking equipment
Once the build-up is gone, daily cleaning is easier and looks better to an inspector.
Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep a cleaning log up to date
- Don’t let the extract cleaning slip
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
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.
Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.
