Looking after it afterwards

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Deal with spills straight away
  • Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
  • Run the extract whenever the range is on
  • Clean behind movable equipment regularly

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

A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well, rather than trying to catch up afterwards.

Kitchen deep cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Walthamstow

Our deep cleans in Walthamstow cover kitchens of all kinds, whatever the size of the operation. The scope is agreed before we start and quote a fixed price. Common call-outs are for a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean and grease stains on walls near the cooking line, across stainless steel surfaces, fryers and grills and floors and floor drains.

Across London, many commercial kitchens are compact and run long hours, so grease collects behind equipment, on ceilings and in drains and grease traps. For a kitchen in Walthamstow, the work is typically done overnight, between the last service and the first.

We’re CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What affects the cost of kitchen deep cleaning

Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:

  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • The number of sites or systems
  • The size of the system

Working hours, access and the scale of the site all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before we start.

Helping us quote

You don’t need the technical terms. It helps if you can send:

  • The site address and the type of premises
  • Any access panels or hatches you can see
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
  • Your last certificate, test record or report

For kitchen deep cleaning in Walthamstow, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send pictures or your last report if you can. A fixed quote normally follows within one working day.

What we do, step by step

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. On site, the work takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Many London buildings have a managing agent, a security desk or a permit-to-work system, so tell us who to contact in Walthamstow.

  1. First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
  2. Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
  3. We work down from the ceiling, cleaning walls and the canopy exterior.
  4. We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
  5. The floors are cleaned and the kitchen is checked with you.

Preparing for the visit

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in

Get a fixed quote

The quickest way to a quote is to send pictures: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.

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.

Why act early in Walthamstow

Built-up grease around the cooking line is something that can burn. Leaving it adds to the fire risk in the kitchen on top of what’s in the ductwork. Deep cleaning removes it. For a site in Walthamstow, fitting the work in overnight now is far easier than closing at short notice later.

One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.

Kitchen deep cleaning around Walthamstow

Food Standards Agency records list about 303 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 148 takeaways and sandwich shops within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Walthamstow. Every one of them has corners the daily clean doesn’t reach. Food hygiene inspections in Walthamstow are the job of Waltham Forest council’s environmental health team. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order. Fat from London kitchens contributes to sewer blockages, which is why grease traps need emptying on a schedule.

If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Walthamstow (the nearest hospital is Wanstead Hospital, about 2.2 miles east), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service. Hall kitchens near Church of St Michael and All Angels or elsewhere in Walthamstow may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. For schools such as Greenleaf Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically booked for the holidays.

FAQs for Walthamstow

Can you come to Walthamstow after we close?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Walthamstow needn’t be disturbed. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Walthamstow?

The local authority for Walthamstow is Waltham Forest council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.

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

The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.

Are you accredited?

CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

Do you recommend a next date?

Yes. The recommended date is on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.

Do you work in Walthamstow?

Yes. Walthamstow is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.

How long will the kitchen be out of use?

Typically, a deep clean takes a full shift for most kitchens, longer for a large one. A large or heavily soiled kitchen takes longer, and we will tell you how long to expect.

How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?

Size, equipment and the level of build-up all affect the price. Send us photos or details, or we can visit, and you’ll get a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

How the job changes from site to site

Cooking equipment

Equipment collects hardened deposits. They’re removed in a way that suits each appliance.

School and care home kitchens

School holidays are a good time for a deep clean, ready for the new term.
