Kitchen deep cleaning near Streatham

How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Streatham

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. We are often asked to deal with greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings and build-up behind fryers and ovens, across floors and floor drains, stainless steel surfaces and walls and ceilings.

Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. Regular grease trap cleaning keeps a kitchen in Streatham from adding to the problem.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal, ready for your insurer.

Kitchen deep cleaning around Streatham

Look up Streatham on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you’ll find about 3 food manufacturers and packers in Streatham and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Factories and packing rooms need deep cleaning planned around production runs. Fat from London kitchens contributes to sewer blockages, which is why grease traps need emptying on a schedule. It’s Lambeth council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Streatham. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.

School kitchens, at schools like St Andrew's Catholic Primary School for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. If you look after a hall kitchen near St Leonard's Church or anywhere in Streatham, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

How we price kitchen deep cleaning

We quote each job individually. These are the things that affect it:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before we start.

Asking for a quote

What to send for a quote:

  • Wide photos of the system and the area around it
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then give you a fixed quote. To start, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us.

Between visits

Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Wipe splashes before they harden
  • Run the extract whenever the range is on
  • Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
  • Book deep cleans on a regular cycle

Many kitchens book the next deep clean before we leave. A regular cycle means the kitchen never falls far behind all year round.

Splashes left on hot surfaces bake on. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and helps the equipment last.

What we’re called out for in Streatham

Food debris falls behind and under equipment. Mixed with grease, it forms a layer that can attract pests if it is not cleared.

These are the problems we see most often:

  • A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
  • A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
  • Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings
  • Build-up behind fryers and ovens

For a café close to Streatham station, a deep clean can be done between closing and the morning rush.

What your quote should include

  • Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
  • Whether VAT is included
  • When the next visit should be, and why
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered

When something else is needed

We’d rather tell you now than book work that will not help, so these are the things it will not cover:

  • Faults with cooking or refrigeration equipment, which need an engineer
  • Cracked tiles or damaged wall cladding
  • Pests already in the kitchen

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll say what we think.

Parts of the system we cover

  • Behind and under equipment
  • Floors and floor drains
  • Ranges and ovens
  • Fryers and grills
  • Walls and ceilings
  • Stainless steel surfaces

Different parts, different methods

Canopy exteriors

The outside of the canopy collects grease and dust. We clean the exterior as part of the deep clean.

Cooking equipment

We clean the cooking equipment itself, inside and out once it’s switched off and cooled.

How it 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 the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. Expect the work in Streatham to happen after your last customer leaves, not during trading.

  1. We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
  2. Areas are protected and equipment is made safe.
  3. We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
  4. Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
  5. The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.

How to prepare

  • Have your last certificate or report to hand
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

How to get a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

What staff can safely do

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they do not reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Questions from Streatham

Which environmental health team covers Streatham?

In Streatham, it’s Lambeth council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.

Is parking a problem for work in Streatham?

We plan it in advance, so let us know about loading bays, permits and access rules at the building. Where restrictions apply in the day, an evening or overnight visit normally gets round them.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

They’re listed in the report, never skipped quietly. The report says which parts couldn’t be reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

Do you do the kitchen and extract together?

Yes, we can. Both can be done on the same visit or close together to suit the kitchen.

What’s TR19?

TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.

Can you clean outside our opening hours?

We fit the clean around your hours. Overnight, early morning and weekend cleans are all possible so you don’t lose a service.

Do inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?

Yes, cleanliness of the premises is part of an inspection. We can’t promise a particular rating, but a deep clean puts the kitchen in good condition.

What do you do with what you remove?

We take it away at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained to keep the area clean.
