Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Upper Wellingham
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Greasy walls, dirty ceilings and grime behind equipment all count. A deep clean puts the whole kitchen in good order whenever it’s needed. We are often asked to deal with preparation for an EHO inspection and hardened deposits on kitchen equipment, on fryers and grills, behind and under equipment and walls and ceilings.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
We’ve been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Why deal with it now?
For kitchens in Upper Wellingham, a deep clean can be planned around quiet periods. Waiting for a problem tends to mean a rushed, disruptive clean at the worst possible time. A fault that closes a site in a village like Upper Wellingham affects everyone who depends on it.
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before any work starts.
What you get with us
- We’re fully insured
- One number for every site across the South East and London

- We diagnose before we treat

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
If you look after several sites, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.
What a clean will not put right
Before booking, it helps to know what’s not included:
- Appliance breakdowns
- Damaged flooring, walls or ceilings that need repair
- Grease in the ducts above the kitchen
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.

What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
How the visit works
Each visit runs to the same pattern: protect the area, make the system safe, carry out the kitchen deep cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. If you can send photos, we can arrive in Upper Wellingham knowing what to expect.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.

How to prepare

Getting a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Advice
Common questions in Upper Wellingham
Do you work in school kitchens around Upper Wellingham out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Food Standards Agency records list about 3 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Upper Wellingham. Just call 0345 646 2711 or email us with your term dates and we’ll plan around them.
Is Upper Wellingham within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
What do you do to protect the area?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
Every kitchen is different, so we need to see what’s involved first. Kitchen deep cleaning is quoted at a fixed price, usually within one working day.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
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.
Will the deep clean disrupt service?
The visit is planned around when you cook. Overnight, early morning and weekend cleans are all possible so you don’t lose a service.
Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Book deep cleans on a regular cycle
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
- Get cracked tiles and damaged surfaces fixed
- Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans
Equipment is put back in place before we leave so your team can start up as normal. There’s nothing extra to do from then on.
If you can see grime on the ceiling or behind the range, it’s time. Dealing with it now keeps it from spreading and attracting pests.
Signs you need kitchen deep cleaning in Upper Wellingham

- A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
- Food debris that could attract pests
- Hardened deposits on kitchen equipment
- A kitchen getting ready for an environmental health visit
