About our kitchen deep cleaning in Shoreham
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 any work starts. Typical jobs include signs of pests drawn by food debris and a clean-up ahead of an inspection, across ranges and ovens, behind and under equipment and walls and ceilings.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

What affects the quote in Shoreham
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The scale of the work
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before any work starts.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from photos. The most useful are:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Any previous report or certificate
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: 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 we can price many jobs without a visit.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Shoreham and across Kent. Work can be phased by floor, building or site to keep disruption down.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.

Why it’s worth doing now in Shoreham
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. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Shoreham rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
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 make a difference.

- Member of BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease

Aftercare tips
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Don’t let debris build up behind the line
- Deal with spills straight away
- Keep the extract running while you cook
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
The kitchen is handed back ready for the next service. We walk round with you or your manager to check everything is as agreed.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.
Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Shoreham
Can you come to Shoreham after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Shoreham doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Which council inspects kitchens in Shoreham?
That’s Sevenoaks council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Shoreham. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Do you work in Shoreham?
Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, Shoreham included.
How long will the kitchen be out of use?
That comes down to the kitchen, and a deep clean normally takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. You will know before we start.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with pictures, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
What’s TR19?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move. Not everything can be moved safely and we’ll explain what we can reach.
Shoreham kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 5 restaurants, cafés and canteens across Shoreham and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Every one of them has corners the daily clean does not reach. At about 16 miles from central London, Shoreham sits well inside the area we cover. A survey and a fixed quote come first, then the visit at a time that suits you. It’s Sevenoaks council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Shoreham. 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.
If you run a café or takeaway near Shoreham (Kent) station, a deep clean overnight means the kitchen opens as normal next morning. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Shoreham Village School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned. If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Shoreham (the nearest hospital is Sevenoaks Hospital, about 3.2 miles south), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.
Shoreham is about 4 miles north of Sevenoaks, in Kent. Sites in Shoreham get the same service as everywhere we cover: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where needed and a written report with pictures. Shoreham is one of 922 places in Kent we cover for commercial clients. We also work in London, about 16 miles from Shoreham.
Kitchen deep cleaning in TN14 is surveyed, quoted and booked the same way as anywhere else. Whether your site is on High Street, Boakes Meadow and Church Street or a nearby road, our technicians can take on the work. Neighbouring places we cover for kitchen deep cleaning include Badgers Mount (1 mile west), Sepham Heath (1 mile south-west), Twitton (1 mile south), Otford (2 miles south) and Lullingstone (2 miles north).

What’s near Shoreham
We work in commercial kitchens and buildings around Raspberry Hall Park and The Old George Inn. There’s a railway station in Shoreham itself: Shoreham (Kent) station. Other landmarks nearby include Sevenoaks Hospital (3.2 miles south) and Otford Heritage Centre (1.9 miles south). Green spaces nearby include Dryhill Nature Reserve.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
How the visit works
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Somewhere like Shoreham, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We agree the scope of the clean and the time to attend.
- We make sure all cooking equipment is off and cool.
- High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
- We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
- The floors are cleaned and the kitchen is checked with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before we start.

School and care home kitchens
Kitchens serving residents or patients need to keep cooking. Visits are timed between meals or overnight.
Behind and under equipment
These areas are almost impossible to reach during daily cleaning so it’s often the dirtiest part of the kitchen.
