In-house cleaning or a specialist?
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.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
How we handle kitchen deep cleaning in West Dulwich
Across West Dulwich, we deep clean restaurant and pub kitchens, hotel kitchens, school kitchens and more, whatever the size of the operation. The scope is agreed before any work starts, and you get a fixed quote. The work covers fryers and grills, ranges and ovens and walls and ceilings, and the jobs we see most are floors with grease along the edges and cooking equipment caked in carbon.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

Your questions about kitchen deep cleaning in West Dulwich
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in West Dulwich?
In West Dulwich, it’s Lambeth council that carries out food hygiene inspections. 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.
Can you come to West Dulwich after we close?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us when we go. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, to suit the system and how it’s used.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
No two kitchens are the same, so we need to see what’s involved first. Kitchen deep cleaning is quoted at a fixed price, normally within one working day.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We normally quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
What happens if you can’t reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
When to call us in West Dulwich
Kitchens in West Dulwich, as anywhere, take a lot of punishment. Heat, steam, spills and splashes all add up on every surface.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Baked-on grease on ovens, ranges and grills
- Signs of pests drawn by food debris
- A whole-kitchen clean while the extract is cleaned
- A kitchen taken over in poor condition
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as St Christopher's Hospice (about 1.3 miles south-east), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether a survey comes first
- Whether the figure could change on the day
- Whether the quote shows VAT
- Proof of insurance
Different parts, different methods
Cooking equipment
Equipment collects hardened deposits. They’re removed in a way that suits each appliance.
Floors
Kitchen floors collect grease, food debris and grime. Floors are done at the end reaching under and behind equipment wherever it’s safe to move.
How it works
Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, clear away and hand over the paperwork. The visit itself takes anything from a single evening to more than one visit, depending on the kitchen. Night and weekend working is normal for us in London, and a site in West Dulwich is no exception.
- First, we walk the kitchen with you and agree the scope.
- Cooking equipment is switched off and left to cool, and the area is prepared.
- High surfaces are cleaned first so dirt doesn’t fall on clean areas.
- Equipment is cleaned inside and out, along with the areas behind and underneath it.
- We finish with the floors and leave the kitchen ready to use.
Before we arrive
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Aftercare tips
So the system stays in good health:
- Report damaged surfaces early so they can be repaired
- Pair kitchen deep cleans with extract cleans
- Wipe splashes before they harden
- Clean the floor edges, not just the middle
When we leave, the kitchen is ready to cook. We go round the kitchen with you to check everything is as agreed.
A deep clean ahead of a busy period sets the kitchen up well instead of chasing grime later.
