How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Sonning Common
Across Sonning Common, we deep clean restaurant and pub kitchens, hotel kitchens, school kitchens and more, from small takeaways to large production kitchens. The scope is agreed before any work starts and quote a fixed price. Typical jobs include greasy, slippery kitchen floors and grime in corners that pests could exploit, across fryers and grills, ranges and ovens and behind and under equipment.
In a place like Sonning Common, kitchens often sit in older buildings with older drains. Smells and slow drains are the usual warning signs.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Do you need kitchen deep cleaning in Sonning Common?
When the kitchen is flat out, cleaning shrinks to the basics. Weeks of that, wherever the kitchen is in Sonning Common, let grime build in the hard-to-reach places.
What we are most often called out for:
- A kitchen that needs a clean start
- Grime behind and under cooking equipment
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- Floors with grease along the edges
For schools such as Sonning Common Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically booked for the holidays.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
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.
How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. In a place like Sonning Common, we fit the visit around your hours.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Move anything stored near the system
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
Getting a quote
We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Related advice
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
- Don’t wait for an inspection to book a deep clean
- Clean spills while they’re fresh, before they bake on
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind all year round.
Grease that is left only gets harder to remove. Booking one sooner keeps the work manageable, and keeps the kitchen ready for an inspection.
When something else is needed
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Grease inside the canopy, plenum and ductwork, which needs a TR19 clean
- Appliance breakdowns
- Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Stainless steel surfaces
- Walls and ceilings
- Ranges and ovens
- Floors and floor drains
- Fryers and grills
- Behind and under equipment
Leave it or put it right?
Environmental health visits aren’t always announced in advance. Build-up in hidden areas is the kind of thing inspectors notice even when the daily clean is good. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen inspection-ready. You choose the date of a planned visit, and a breakdown never asks.
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.
What you get with us

Sonning Common: your questions answered
Can you work in Sonning Common outside opening hours?
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’ll book within them.
Who inspects food businesses in Sonning Common?
In Sonning Common, it’s South Oxfordshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Is it possible to book a deep clean with a TR19 clean?
Yes, we can. We can plan both on the same visit or over consecutive visits, depending on the size of the job.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.
Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?
We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move. Some equipment is fixed or connected in a way that means it shouldn’t be moved and we will explain what we can reach.
What the work involves, part by part
Floors
Grease builds up along the edges and under equipment. We pay particular attention there.
