About our kitchen deep cleaning in Wellow
We clean from the ceiling down. High surfaces come first, then walls and equipment, then floors last, so nothing falls onto surfaces we’ve already cleaned. Equipment is switched off and left to cool before work begins. We are often asked to deal with baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills and a new kitchen tenant inheriting a dirty kitchen, across floors and floor drains, ranges and ovens and fryers and grills.
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.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

FAQs for Wellow
Do you work in school kitchens around Wellow out of term?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Wellow. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which environmental health team covers Wellow?
The local authority for Wellow is Isle of Wight council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Do inspectors look at how clean the whole kitchen is?
Yes, inspectors look at the whole kitchen. No clean can promise a rating, but a deep clean puts the kitchen in good condition.
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.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
When can you do the deep clean?
Most deep cleans happen when the kitchen is closed, so the kitchen is ready for the next service. School kitchens are often done in the holidays.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where needed. Then you get a fixed quote.
What a clean will not put right
In fairness, there are a few things this work will not fix:
- Equipment that isn’t working properly
- Pests already in the kitchen
- Drainage problems beyond the kitchen
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.
What the work covers
- Behind and under equipment
- Ranges and ovens

Different parts, different methods
School and care home kitchens

The areas behind and under equipment are where grime hides. We clean behind and under equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
Wellow kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 5 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in Wellow and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Kitchens like these build up grease behind and under equipment, on walls and on ceilings. Food hygiene inspections in Wellow are the job of Isle of Wight council’s environmental health team. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Hall and church kitchens, near Wellow Baptist Church or anywhere around Wellow, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order. If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Mottistone Manor is about 2.8 miles south), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings.

How it works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the job takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. In a small place like Wellow, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First, we agree what’s being cleaned and when.
- Equipment is switched off and allowed to cool.
- High-level surfaces, walls and the canopy exterior are cleaned.
- We clean the equipment and the hidden areas around it.
- We finish the floors and walk round with you.
Getting ready for the visit
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
Ask for a quote
Getting a quote does not take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Related advice
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
What happens if it’s left?
In Wellow, as elsewhere, grease doesn’t stay in one place. Cleaning one without the other leaves half the problem and that’s why many kitchens plan the two together. With notice, the visit to Wellow can be fitted around your bookings and events.
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.

Looking after it afterwards
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Keep the TR19 extract clean on schedule as well
- Pay attention to corners and edges when mopping
- Pull out equipment for cleaning where it’s safe to do so
We put equipment back where it belongs so your team can start up as normal. There’s nothing extra to do from then on.
Before a busy season or a big event, a deep clean gives you a clean start instead of chasing grime later.
