Commercial kitchen extract cleaning isn’t just about keeping your kitchen looking good—it’s about safety, hygiene, and compliance. At Cater Clean 24 Seven, we know that if it’s your first time booking a kitchen extract cleaning, you might be wondering exactly what happens, how it affects your kitchen operations, and what you should prepare for. Here’s a detailed guide to help you feel confident and informed.
1. Pre-Clean Consultation
Before any work begins, our team will carry out a thorough pre-clean assessment of your kitchen extract system. This includes:
-
Inspecting hoods, ducts, and fans to understand the level of grease and residue.
-
Discussing your operational needs to minimise disruption during the clean.
-
Agreeing on a schedule that works around your business hours.
This consultation ensures your kitchen extract cleaning is carried out safely, efficiently, and in full compliance with UK standards.
2. Preparing Your Kitchen
We’ll guide your staff on how to prepare the kitchen for the clean. Typical steps include:
-
Removing perishable items from surfaces near the work area.
-
Securing delicate kitchen equipment.
-
Ensuring safe access to hoods, ducts, and fans.
Our team works to minimise disruption, often completing extract cleaning outside of peak service hours where possible.
3. The Kitchen Extract Cleaning Process
The main focus is the professional kitchen duct cleaning itself:
-
Hood and canopy cleaning: We remove grease and residue, restoring ventilation efficiency.
-
Ductwork cleaning: Using specialist equipment, we clean internal ducts thoroughly.
-
Fan and motor cleaning: Removing grease reduces fire risk and prolongs fan life.
All cleaning is performed with professional-grade equipment and strictly follows NAAD21 guidelines, ensuring your kitchen remains safe and compliant.
4. Post-Clean Inspection and Reporting
After the clean, our team will:
-
Conduct a final inspection to confirm every area has been cleaned to the highest standard.
-
Provide a detailed cleaning report, including before-and-after photographs.
-
Offer maintenance advice to keep your kitchen extract system performing optimally between cleans.
This approach gives you complete confidence that your kitchen extract cleaning has been thorough and effective.
