Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Shenfield
Many kitchens book a deep clean alongside their TR19® extract clean. We clean the extract system and the room it serves, so the whole space is done in one go. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. Typical jobs include preparation for an EHO inspection and grime behind and under cooking equipment, across walls and ceilings, ranges and ovens and behind and under equipment.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Shenfield are often in older buildings, with drains and grease traps that have been there for years. Smells and slow drains are the usual warning signs.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Shenfield
Food Standards Agency records list about 73 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 29 takeaways in Shenfield and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Grease settles behind fryers, under ranges and on high surfaces in kitchens like these. It’s Brentwood council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Shenfield. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Brentwood Community Hospital, about 0.5 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Shenfield. Hall kitchens near Church of St Mary the Virgin or elsewhere in Shenfield may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Any permits to work or inductions
Every site is different, 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.
Asking for a quote
What to send for a quote:
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
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, you get a fixed price before work begins.
How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen, and we clear up before we go. Getting to the system matters more than parking in a place like Shenfield, so let us know how to reach it.
- First, we walk the kitchen with you and agree the scope.
- Equipment is turned off and allowed to cool before anything else happens.
- Ceilings, walls and high-level surfaces are cleaned first, working downwards.
- The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
- The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Clear the space around the work
Getting a quote
Here’s what helps us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.

What we are called out for in Shenfield
Busy periods leave little time for anything beyond the essentials. A few busy weeks in Shenfield or anywhere else are enough for grime to build behind and above the equipment.
The symptoms we’re asked about most include:
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- Grime in corners that pests could exploit
- Floors with grease along the edges
For schools such as Shenfield St. Mary's Church of England Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually booked for the holidays.

Common questions in Shenfield
Which council inspects kitchens in Shenfield?
Food hygiene inspections in Shenfield are carried out by Brentwood council. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Can you come to Shenfield after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
We clean behind and under as much equipment as can be safely reached. Where an item is fixed we clean around it as fully as we can.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. File it with your fire safety records.
Is there anything we have to do beforehand?
Very little. Clear food and loose items from surfaces, and make sure we can get in at the agreed time.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How the job changes from site to site
Behind and under equipment
Daily cleaning rarely reaches here, which is why build-up gets so bad.
Cooking equipment
Clean equipment is easier to keep clean and looks better to an inspector.
What happens if it’s left?
Staff notice when a kitchen is grimy. Slippery floors and sticky surfaces make the job harder and less pleasant. Deep cleaning gives the team a better place to work. A planned visit to Shenfield fits your hours; an emergency doesn’t.
Several systems or sites on one quote can make for a more efficient booking. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Keeping the system healthy
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Deal with spills straight away
- Clean behind movable equipment regularly
- Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
Equipment is put back in place before we leave, ready for your staff to check and start up. There’s nothing extra to do from then on.
Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start instead of chasing grime later.
