Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. It’s Swale council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Waterham. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.

About our kitchen deep cleaning in Waterham
An EHO looks at the whole kitchen, not just the worktops. Build-up on walls, ceilings and behind equipment is part of what they see. A thorough deep clean brings every surface up to standard whenever it’s needed. If you have a kitchen taken over in poor condition and a deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean, we can put it right.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

Common problems we fix in Waterham
The usual end-of-shift clean covers what’s in easy reach. Areas behind ranges and fryers, and high-level surfaces, tend to be missed so grease and debris accumulate there.
Clients usually contact us when they notice something like this:
- A new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen
- Preparation for an EHO inspection
- A floor that daily mopping no longer gets clean
- A deep clean to go alongside a TR19 extract clean
For schools such as Hernhill Church of England Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically booked for the holidays.
What your quote should include
- Whether the price is fixed
- If they look at the system before pricing
- Whether they’re fully insured
- What happens if part of the system cannot be accessed

How it works
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. All told, the work takes several hours, depending on the kitchen and the equipment in it. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Waterham before we set off.
- A pre-clean look round tells us what’s needed.
- We protect what needs protecting and make equipment safe.
- Grease is removed from ceilings, walls and equipment.
- Behind and under the equipment is cleaned where it can be moved safely.
- The floor is cleaned and the kitchen left ready for service.
Before we arrive
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
Ask for 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
Common questions in Waterham
Can a school kitchen in Waterham be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Waterham. You can call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the dates the site is empty.
Do you work overnight in Waterham?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we will book within them.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
What do you clean in a commercial kitchen deep clean?
We clean the whole kitchen from top to bottom. You will know exactly what’s included before we start and it’s all in the fixed quote.
What accreditations do you have?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
How much notice should we give?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
What should we do before the deep clean?
Clear food and small items from surfaces. Cooking equipment needs to be switched off and allowed to cool before we start.
Can you clean behind fixed equipment?
We clean behind and under as much equipment as can be safely reached. If something can’t be moved safely we clean as far around and under it as possible.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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 is our job.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
- Plan the next deep clean in advance
- Run the extract whenever the range is on
A deep-cleaned kitchen is easier to keep clean. Keep up the routine, especially behind and under equipment where you can so build-up stays down.
Old grease hardens with every service. Booking one sooner keeps the work manageable, and keeps the kitchen ready for an inspection.
What affects the quote in Waterham
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- How easy every part is to reach
- The size of the system
- A single visit or a regular plan
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we’ll explain what it covers.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles

How the job changes from site to site
Walls and ceilings
Walls and ceilings collect grease carried up by heat and steam. They’re cleaned first, working downwards so nothing drips onto clean areas.
Floors
Kitchen floors collect grease, food debris and grime. We clean them last reaching under and behind equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
