How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in Upperton
Every deep clean we carry out in Upperton takes in the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings, and the equipment itself. Where equipment can safely be moved, we clean behind and under it as that is where grease and food debris gather. Typical jobs include food debris that could attract pests and a kitchen clean booked with the extract clean, across ranges and ovens, walls and ceilings and behind and under equipment.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

FAQs for Upperton
Can you come to Upperton after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Upperton needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Which council inspects kitchens in Upperton?
Kitchens in Upperton are inspected by Chichester council’s environmental health officers. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
How far ahead should we book?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
How much time does a deep clean need?
The kitchen’s size and equipment decide it, and a deep clean normally takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. We will confirm when we quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line, and we’ll advise on what to do next.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Visits to a village like Upperton are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- We look at the kitchen with you to plan the clean.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- We degrease the ceilings, walls and cooking equipment.
- We clean the spaces behind and beneath the equipment.
- Floors are done last and the kitchen is ready to use.
How to prepare
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. 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.
Advice
When it’s something else

Why it’s worth doing now in Upperton
In Upperton, deep cleans can be fitted around the kitchen’s quieter times. Leaving it until something goes wrong tends to mean a rushed, disruptive clean, often at a bad moment. If the system at a site near Upperton fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

How the job changes from site to site
Canopy exteriors
Canopy surfaces get greasy on the outside as well as inside. The outside of the canopy is cleaned with the rest of the kitchen.
School and care home kitchens
Kitchens in schools, care homes and hospitals need cleaning that fits around mealtimes. We plan around their hours.
Between visits
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Keep a cleaning schedule and record it
- Repair worn surfaces that trap grime
- Deal with spills right away
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
Anything we notice during the clean, such as worn flooring or a dirty extract, is pointed out. That might mean a TR19® clean or a repair by another trade.
Setting deep cleans on a regular cycle keeps the kitchen in good health. Combining them with extract cleans covers the room and the system together.
