Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
About our kitchen deep cleaning in South Holmwood
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A thorough deep clean brings every surface up to standard whenever it’s needed. If you have build-up behind fryers and ovens and a clean-up ahead of an inspection, we can put it right, from behind and under equipment, stainless steel surfaces and fryers and grills onwards.
Work in a small place like South Holmwood starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

How the visit works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. For a village or hamlet like South Holmwood, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
Before we arrive
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
Advice
Commercial kitchens in South Holmwood
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of South Holmwood. Every one of them has corners the daily clean doesn’t reach. Kitchens in South Holmwood get their food hygiene inspections from Mole Valley council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record. South Holmwood is about 23 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
If you run a café or takeaway near Holmwood station, a deep clean overnight means the kitchen opens as normal next morning. Hall kitchens near Church of St Mary Magdalene or elsewhere in South Holmwood may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. School kitchens, at schools like The Priory CofE Voluntary Aided School for example, typically have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.

Common questions in South Holmwood
Which council inspects kitchens in South Holmwood?
That is Mole Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in South Holmwood. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Do you work in villages like South Holmwood?
Yes, South Holmwood is part of our area, however small the site. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
What types of premises do you cover?
We work for restaurants, pubs, hotels, schools, colleges, hospitals, care homes, offices and shops, plus food production and leisure sites.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
A deep clean covers the areas daily cleaning misses, from the ceiling down to the floor behind the equipment. The cooking equipment is cleaned too.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We normally quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Can you clean the extract at the same time?
Yes, and many kitchens do. We clean inside the extract system to TR19 and the kitchen gets its deep clean too.
Which records should we keep?
Each report and certificate we give you, filed in the maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Any permits to work or inductions
A single site or a whole portfolio, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, please include:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
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, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

How the job changes from site to site
Behind and under equipment
Debris under the line is a draw for pests. Clearing it out is a core part of a deep clean.
School and care home kitchens
School holidays are a good time for a deep clean, ready for the new term.
Why it’s worth doing now in South Holmwood
In South Holmwood, as elsewhere, grease does not stay in one place. Cleaning the extract but not the room, or the other way round, only does half the job and that’s why many kitchens plan the two together. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

- Equipment that isn’t working properly
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that won’t come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
