Kitchen deep cleaning for sites in Surrey Canal

Kitchen deep cleaning in Surrey Canal, done properly

A deep clean pairs well with a TR19® clean of the extract. The extract is cleaned inside, and the kitchen around it is cleaned too and the whole kitchen benefits. It works on its own as well, between extract cleans. Common call-outs are for a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean and grime in corners that pests could exploit, on ranges and ovens, stainless steel surfaces and fryers and grills.

London’s sewers are known for fatbergs, built up from fat, oil and grease washed down drains. Regular grease trap cleaning keeps a kitchen in Surrey Canal from adding to the problem.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.

Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in Surrey Canal

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Surrey Canal?

That is Southwark council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Surrey Canal. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.

Do you work in school kitchens around Surrey Canal out of term?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 77 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Surrey Canal, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will fit the work in.

Will I get paperwork for my records?

Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.

Is there anything we have to do beforehand?

Put food, utensils and small items away before any work starts. We’ll tell you anything else when we confirm the visit.

How far ahead should we book?

That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.

Will you clean under the ranges and fryers?

Where equipment can be moved safely, we clean behind and under it. Some equipment is fixed or connected in a way that means it shouldn’t be moved and we will explain what we can reach.

Which records should we keep?

Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.

How do you keep the site clean during the work?

Protection goes down first: sheeting over floors, worktops and anything close to the work. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

How we price kitchen deep cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • The number of sites or systems
  • The condition of the system
  • Any permits to work or inductions
  • Travel, parking and unloading

No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:

  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.

Looking after it afterwards

After the visit, a few habits help the work last:

  • Keep a cleaning log up to date
  • Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
  • Wipe splashes before they harden
  • Keep the extract running while you cook

It’s easy to set the next date while we are there. Regular deep cleans keep the kitchen consistently clean all year round.

Small spills that bake on become hard deposits. Regular deep cleans clear them before they harden and protects the surfaces.

The process

A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the kitchen deep cleaning, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. Security desks and permits-to-work are routine in London, so let us know what your building in Surrey Canal needs from us.

  1. We look round the kitchen and agree exactly what’s included.
  2. Equipment is turned off and allowed to cool before anything else happens.
  3. Ceilings, walls and high-level surfaces are cleaned first, working downwards.
  4. The equipment, and the floor and walls around it, are degreased and cleaned.
  5. The floors are done last, then everything is checked with you.

Before we arrive

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Mention any parking or loading restrictions
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Getting a quote

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Surrey Canal

Ovens, ranges, grills and fryers build up baked-on deposits. Daily wiping only deals with the surface and it thickens over time.

Clients typically contact us after spotting something like this:

  • Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment
  • Build-up behind fryers and ovens
  • Signs of pests drawn by food debris
  • Greasy, darkened kitchen ceilings

If you run a kitchen near South Bermondsey station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap.

Questions to ask before booking

  • What paperwork you get at the end
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Proof of insurance
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed

Our hiring checklist

Kitchen deep cleaning around Surrey Canal

The FSA’s data shows about 93 pubs, bars and clubs and about 14 hotels and guest houses registered within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Surrey Canal. Where they run a kitchen, it needs the same deep cleaning and grease trap care as any restaurant. Kitchens in Surrey Canal get their food hygiene inspections from Southwark council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day. Fat from London kitchens contributes to sewer blockages, which is why grease traps need emptying on a schedule.

School kitchens, at schools like Ilderton Primary School for example, typically have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; New Cross Hospital, about 0.5 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Surrey Canal.

Surrey Canal is about 1 mile north-west of New Cross, in Greater London.

How the job changes from site to site

Behind and under equipment

These areas are almost impossible to reach during daily cleaning so it’s often the dirtiest part of the kitchen.

Cooking equipment

We clean the cooking equipment itself, inside and out, with each piece switched off and cool first.
