Commercial kitchen deep cleaning in Shorne, Kent
Professional kitchen deep cleaning in and around Shorne, timed so the site keeps working and finished with a written report and pictures.

- Food debris that could attract pests
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
What staff can safely do
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
About our kitchen deep cleaning in Shorne
A good daily routine keeps the surfaces clean but some areas never get touched. Behind and under equipment, and high up on walls and ceilings, grease quietly builds up. A deep clean deals with all of it while the kitchen is closed. The work covers stainless steel surfaces, walls and ceilings and ranges and ovens, and the jobs we see most are grime in corners that pests could exploit and a kitchen that needs a clean start.
For a kitchen in or near Shorne, 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.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

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 a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Shorne can be planned properly.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
- We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
- Equipment is cleaned, along with the areas behind and under it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.
Advice
Different parts, different methods
Walls and ceilings
Walls and ceilings collect grease carried up by heat and steam. We clean them from the top down so nothing drips onto clean areas.
Cooking equipment
We clean the cooking equipment itself, inside and out once it’s switched off and cooled.
What a clean will not put right
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what kitchen deep cleaning won’t do:
- An infestation that needs specialist treatment
- Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
- Blocked drains and grease traps, which are a separate service
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before booking.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
When to call us in Shorne
Kitchens in Shorne, as anywhere, take a lot of punishment. Spills, splashes, steam and heat all leave their mark over time.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- A clean-up ahead of an inspection
- Food debris that could attract pests
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
Historic houses such as Cobham College (about 2.3 miles south-west) are part of the area around Shorne, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps.

FAQs for Shorne
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Shorne?
The local authority for Shorne is Gravesham council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you work at weekends in Shorne?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
Walls, floors, ceilings and cooking equipment, plus the areas behind and under the equipment. We agree the exact scope with you before any work starts.
Do you move heavy equipment to clean behind it?
Behind and under the equipment is where the worst build-up is, so we reach it wherever it’s safe to do so. We check what can be moved safely at the start.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping and expects a risk-based approach.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
It depends on the size of the kitchen, the equipment and how much build-up there is. We can quote from pictures or a site visit, and you’ll get a fixed quote.
What types of premises do you cover?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Why deal with it now?
An inspection can come at any time. A kitchen with grime behind equipment and on ceilings is harder to defend, however good the daily routine. Keeping on top of it with deep cleans is far less stressful. With notice, the visit to Shorne can be fitted around your bookings and events.
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.

What kitchen deep cleaning looks like in Shorne
Food Standards Agency records include about 6 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Shorne, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. Kitchens in Shorne get their food hygiene inspections from Gravesham council. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Peter and St Paul or elsewhere in Shorne, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Gravesham Community Hospital, about 3.4 miles north-west, is the nearest hospital to Shorne.
