What a kitchen deep clean actually is

A deep clean is not a thorough end-of-service clean. It is a planned, documented intervention that removes the accumulated grease, carbon, biological residue, limescale and bacteria that build up over weeks and months inside equipment, behind appliances, inside ducts and in the spaces your staff never reach[reference:3]. It is the difference between a kitchen that looks clean and a kitchen that is genuinely food-safe and compliant.

Your compliance credentials

We take kitchen safety and documentation as seriously as you do.

DBS-Checked Staff

All our kitchen cleaning operatives are DBS-checked and fully vetted.

TR19 Grease Aware

We understand the BESA TR19 Grease standard for extract and duct cleaning, including the 200-micron grease threshold[reference:4].

EHO-Ready Evidence

Post-clean reports, before-and-after photos and cleaning logs that satisfy Environmental Health inspections.

£10M Insurance

£10M public liability insurance for complete protection.

TR19 Grease & EHO compliance

Commercial kitchen deep cleaning is not just about appearance — it is about demonstrable compliance.

TR19 Grease (Extract & Duct)

  • Grease levels controlled to a mean average of 200 microns between scheduled cleans
  • Cleaning frequencies based on cooking volume and type
  • Canopy, filters, ductwork, fans and fire dampers all covered
  • Before-and-after photographic evidence and post-clean readings
  • Supports insurance validity and fire-safety duties under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order[reference:5]

EHO Inspection Evidence

  • A written cleaning schedule with frequencies for each area
  • A record of who signed off each clean, when, and against which schedule[reference:6]
  • Evidence of remedial action when a clean was missed or failed a check
  • COSHH sheets for every chemical used, including dilution rates and PPE
  • HACCP-aligned hygiene procedures and documented deep clean programme[reference:7]

How often should a commercial kitchen be deep cleaned?

TR19 Grease sets the industry-recognised baseline. The right frequency depends on how hard your kitchen works.

Kitchen Use Typical Hours Recommended Deep Clean Frequency
Heavy use 12–16 hours per day Every 3 months — fast-food, high-volume restaurants, dark kitchens[reference:8]
Moderate use 6–12 hours per day Every 6 months — the TR19 minimum for most commercial kitchens[reference:9]
Light use 2–6 hours per day Annually — smaller cafés, low-volume kitchens[reference:10]

Frequently asked questions

What is TR19 Grease and why does it matter?
TR19 Grease is the BESA industry standard for cleaning commercial kitchen extract and duct systems. It requires grease deposits to be controlled to a mean average of 200 microns between scheduled cleans. It is not legislation, but it is the recognised standard of good practice and is commonly written into commercial insurance policies — failing to demonstrate TR19 compliance can invalidate a claim[reference:11].
How often should I book a deep clean?
TR19 sets a baseline of at least every six months for most commercial kitchens. Heavy-use kitchens (12–16 hours per day) should be cleaned every three months; light-use kitchens may stretch to annually. We will advise based on your actual cooking volume and menu type[reference:12][reference:13].
Will this help with an EHO inspection?
Yes. EHOs expect to see a written cleaning schedule with frequencies, a record of who signed off each clean, evidence of remedial action for missed cleans, and COSHH sheets for all chemicals. Our post-clean report and photographic evidence are designed to support that file[reference:14].
Are your cleaners DBS-checked?
Yes, all our kitchen deep cleaning operatives are DBS-checked and fully vetted.
Do I need a long-term contract?
No. We offer one-off deep cleans, quarterly programmes and annual contracts. You choose the frequency that fits your kitchen and your compliance obligations.
Are your products food-safe?
Yes. We use food-safe, non-toxic degreasers and sanitisers suitable for commercial kitchens, and we provide COSHH information for every chemical used.
Do you clean walk-in fridges and freezers?
Yes — including shelving, door seals, floor drains and accessible evaporator units.
How much does a kitchen deep clean cost?
Costs depend on kitchen size, equipment count, extract system complexity and frequency. We give fixed prices upfront — no hourly rates — so you know exactly what you are paying before we start.
