Trowbridge · Hygiene
A full back-of-house deep clean for Trowbridge kitchens - surfaces, equipment and structure - that stands up to an environmental health inspection and protects your food hygiene rating.
Trowbridge
Wiltshire Council rates hundreds of restaurants, cafes and canteens, and the number on the door is the first thing a customer checks.
Trowbridge eats out across the county town: the food of Fore Street and Castle Street, Silver Street, Roundstone Street, Church Street, Manvers Street, the Shires Shopping Centre, and Wicker Hill. Add Wiltshire College, the Trowbridge Community Hospital and Trowbridge Museum, and you have hundreds of kitchens across the town on the same inspection standard.
A deep clean is what a good rating stands on when the Trowbridge inspector calls. We go well past a nightly wipe-down - the surfaces, the equipment inside and behind, and the fabric of the room, from a grease-laden canopy over a Fore Street range to the grout under a Roundstone Street kitchen - to the level an environmental health visit actually marks.
The inspection
The Food Hygiene Rating an officer gives a Trowbridge kitchen rests on three things checked on the day, and a deep clean shifts two of them.
How food is prepped, cooked, cooled and stored on your line - your practice, but it stands on genuinely clean surfaces and equipment underneath it.
The state of the structure and equipment - the pillar a deep clean lifts directly, from a carbonised Fore Street range wall to the grouting in a Roundstone Street kitchen.
Your records and cleaning schedule - a documented deep clean gives you the dated evidence a Trowbridge EHO wants to see behind it.
The clean
Top to bottom and into the equipment, across the whole range a Trowbridge kitchen runs - not a wipe-down.
Cook lines stripped and degreased, fryers and ranges emptied and cleaned through, canopy and baffle filters cleared, stainless brought back to a shine, walls and ceilings washed off, cold rooms and fridges sanitised, and the baked grease behind the hot line that a closing wipe never reaches. From one Silver Street range to a county-town-scale production kitchen, we fit the work around service - overnight or on a rest day - and hand over a dated record of every job done.
On the ground in Trowbridge
We are in Trowbridge's kitchens every week. Real jobs, not a gallery of someone else's.
A Castle Street takeaway in Trowbridge had thick fryer grease coating the wall behind the range and a sticky film over the extraction louvres. We stripped the louvres for a chemical soak, degreased the tiled wall and range surround and sanitised the prep counters, clearing the build that had dropped the food-hygiene score. Phosphate-free chemicals met the River Biss water run-off rules.
When to book
Usually before the inspector, not after.
Before an FHRS re-inspection, after a rating that needs lifting off a 2 or 3, at a Wicker Hill handover or a new Roundstone Street opening, ahead of a busy season, or on a quarterly cycle so grease never gets the chance to build. A daily clean keeps a Trowbridge kitchen running; a deep clean resets it to the condition Wiltshire Council's officers actually score - two different jobs, done by different hands.
How it runs
Walk the Trowbridge kitchen, agree scope and a slot around your service times.
Equipment and food areas safed off before work starts - important where a Silver Street kitchen has to reopen the next day.
Surfaces, equipment and structure - deep, and behind the hot line where the grease hides.
A dated record of what was cleaned, for your file and the next Trowbridge EHO visit.
Questions
Daily cleaning keeps surfaces usable between services. A deep clean reaches what that never does - behind and beneath fixed equipment, inside ovens, fryers and extraction canopies, and across walls, ceilings and floor junctions. It is the part of a Silver Street or Roundstone Street kitchen an environmental health inspection actually looks at.
It targets exactly what the council's officers score on the physical side - the condition and cleanliness of structure and equipment, from a greased Fore Street extract to the grouting on a Roundstone Street line. It cannot change how you handle food, but it removes the build-up that drags a rating down.
Yes - from Silver Street and Roundstone Street to the suburbs, and across the wider Wiltshire.
Often. A documented deep clean resets a kitchen to a clean baseline for a new Wicker Hill opening, a change of operator or a Roundstone Street lease handover, with photographs and a schedule of work for the file.
It depends on the kitchen - a small Roundstone Street independent is usually a night, a county-town-scale production kitchen several. We scope it on the walk-round and work around your service so you lose no covers.
Yes. We work overnight, early mornings or on closing days, and across consecutive nights where a Silver Street or Roundstone Street site has to stay open. There is no extra charge for out-of-hours work.
A schedule of the work done and before-and-after photographs, plus a record you can hand to a Wicker Hill landlord, an incoming operator or a council environmental health officer.
