Commercial Kitchen Deep Cleaning

The consequences of a dirty commercial kitchen are great.

If a kitchen in a restaurant, hotel or a canteen becomes unclean, it could cause massive Health and Safety problems leading to vermin, food hygiene regulation breaches, fire and even the closure of your business until required standards are met.

Standards of hygiene in the catering industry are more rigorously checked and controlled than ever before. Catering premises must receive a random visit from local enforcement officers (EHOs).

Why have your kitchen cleaned by professionals?

A professional, deep clean will lead to increased productivity from your catering equipment, your staff and will reduce the risk of vermin.

By having your kitchen professionally cleaned, you will not only be adhering to Health and Safety laws and the terms of your insurance, but you will also be creating a better working environment.

Although major cleaning may be required up to four times a year, in-house kitchen and cleaning staff should clean all equipment daily. Regular cleaning will reduce the cost of less frequent professional cleaning, because deposits are not given the chance to build up, bake and harden.

. . . and good old-fashioned elbow grease!

Commercial kitchen appliance cleaning

It is essential that your kitchen appliances are professionally cleaned at least once per year, depending on the amount of use.

Commercial kitchen appliances that should be particularly carefully monitored are:

• fryers
• grills
• oven ranges
• steamers
• fridges
• combination ovens
• dishwashers.

These appliances must be fully dismantled to clean them properly. We then treat them with specialist cleaning solutions to remove the grease and carbon build up.

We work on the internal structure of the appliance, using degreasers and steam to remove any burned-on grease and carbon. The appliance is then

re-assembled and polished, ready for use.

Ongoing support

Mr Gleam issues a certificate of hygiene and a regular service schedule which can be shown to your insurer, customers and Health and Safety inspectors.

Our staff are also happy to give clients advice on the best cleaning products and techniques to keep your commercial kitchen equipment in peak condition.

We always recommend our clients maintain a daily appliance cleaning routine so grease and carbon does not get burned on, among other recommendations to maximize your appliances’ lifespan.

Our advice is completely impartial – we have no affiliation with kitchen appliance manufacturers or retailers.

All work carried is accompanied by:

• a risk assessment
• a method Statement
• a COSHH assessment on any chemicals used
