Kitchen Cleaning Services: The Secret to Safe, Compliant, and Spotless Commercial Kitchens
Running a commercial kitchen isn’t just about producing great food. Behind the scenes, cleanliness determines everything—from safety and compliance to customer confidence. That’s where professional kitchen cleaning services make the difference.
At Lex Hygiene, we specialise in delivering deep, certified kitchen cleaning that keeps your premises safe, compliant, and inspection-ready.
1. What Are Kitchen Cleaning Services?
Kitchen cleaning services go far beyond daily wipe-downs. While staff can manage surface hygiene, commercial kitchens accumulate grease, grime, and hidden contaminants in places ordinary cleaning won’t reach:
- Ovens, grills, and fryers – caked with carbonised grease
- Extraction systems – ducts, fans, and filters clogged with flammable deposits
- Hard-to-reach areas – ceilings, behind fridges, under counters, and vents
- Floors and walls – hotspots for bacteria build-up
Lex Hygiene’s certified team uses industrial equipment and proven cleaning methods to leave your kitchen spotless, hygienic, and safe.
2. Why Kitchen Cleaning Services Are Essential
✅ Fire Safety
Grease is highly flammable. Without professional cleaning, your extraction and ductwork can become a hidden fire hazard.
✅ Insurance Compliance
Most insurers require proof of regular kitchen cleaning services in line with NAAD21 or TR/19 standards. Without certification, claims may be denied.
✅ Health & Hygiene Ratings
Poor hygiene can mean low scores from Environmental Health Officers (EHOs), damaging your reputation and potentially leading to closure. Professional cleaning supports a higher hygiene rating.
✅ Longer Equipment Life
Clean appliances work more efficiently, consume less energy, and last longer—saving you money in the long run.
3. How Often Should You Use Professional Kitchen Cleaning Services?
The frequency depends on your kitchen’s usage:
| Usage Level | Recommended Interval |
|---|---|
| Heavy use (restaurants, takeaways) | Every 3 months |
| Moderate use (schools, pubs, hotels) | Every 6 months |
| Light use (community halls, occasional kitchens) | Annually |
Sticking to these intervals helps you maintain compliance, protect staff, and avoid costly downtime.
