Our Restaurant Cleaning Services
Every venue works differently. Choose the area you want covered and we will confirm the surfaces, equipment, products, timing and any restricted areas with your manager before quoting. For a deeper look at what a restaurant clean involves, read our restaurant cleaning guide and checklist.
Kitchen Surfaces and Equipment
We clean agreed kitchen surfaces such as stainless steel benches, splashbacks, sinks, shelving and the exteriors of cooking and refrigeration equipment. Grease and food residue are removed using products suited to each surface and used as labelled. See also our commercial kitchen cleaning guide.
Equipment interiors, fryers, ovens and food-contact parts are only cleaned if agreed in writing, and equipment must be switched off and cooled by your staff first.
Dining Areas and Furniture
Tables, chairs, booths, counters and menu holders are wiped down and sanitised as agreed, and dining-room floors are vacuumed or mopped to suit the finish. Upholstered seating and carpet can be vacuumed, with stain removal quoted separately.
Cleaning is planned for before opening, after closing or on quiet days, so guests and staff are not disrupted.
Kitchen Floors and Drains
Kitchen floors collect grease, food scraps and moisture, which can make them slippery. We degrease and scrub or steam-clean accessible hard floors and clean mats, skirting and floor edges as agreed.
Accessible floor drains and grates can be cleaned on the surface. Blocked drains, grease trap servicing and plumbing work are specialist tasks outside routine cleaning.
High-Touch Points and Front of House
Door handles, bar tops, point-of-sale areas, counters, glass and entry doors are cleaned in an agreed sequence so frequently touched surfaces are not missed. Where disinfection is specified, surfaces are cleaned first and the approved product is used according to its label, including contact time.
Tell us if certain surfaces need particular products or are sensitive to moisture so we can plan around them.
Bathrooms and Staff Areas
Customer and staff bathrooms, change areas and back-of-house spaces are cleaned as part of the same plan. Tasks can include toilets, basins, taps, dispensers, mirrors, floors and bin emptying, using separate tools for toilet areas and food areas.
Consumables can be restocked if you supply them. Food waste, grease and hazardous waste follow your own disposal arrangements.
Periodic Deep Cleaning
Periodic deep cleans can cover built-up grease and grime on accessible walls, tiles, shelving, light fittings and the exteriors of equipment that routine cleaning does not reach. Moving heavy equipment to clean behind and under it needs your approval and safe access.
Exhaust canopy interiors, ducts and fan systems are specialist services and are not assumed in a standard scope. Tell us if you need them so they can be assessed separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to common questions about scope, scheduling and responsibilities for restaurant cleaning in Melbourne.
What does restaurant cleaning include?
The agreed scope can cover kitchen surfaces and equipment exteriors, dining areas and furniture, floors, high-touch points, bathrooms and staff areas, plus periodic deep cleans. Your quote should list each area, task, frequency and exclusion so everyone knows what is covered.
Can you clean outside trading hours?
Yes, where access can be arranged. Many venues choose after-closing, early-morning or closed-day cleaning so it does not disrupt service. Tell us your trading hours and access arrangements and we will confirm a suitable schedule, subject to availability.
Do you clean exhaust canopies, ducts and grease traps?
Routine restaurant cleaning covers accessible surfaces, equipment exteriors and floors. Exhaust canopy interiors, ducts, fans, grease trap servicing and pest control are specialist tasks that are not included unless separately assessed and agreed.
Do you follow our food safety plan?
We work to the scope, schedules and product requirements you give us. Your food safety plan and compliance remain your responsibility. Tell us about approved products, cleaning schedules and any area-specific requirements at the walkthrough so they can be reflected in the quote.
How often should a restaurant be professionally cleaned?
It depends on trading volume, menu, kitchen size and how well your daily routines keep up. Many venues use regular professional cleaning for floors, bathrooms and dining areas, with periodic deep cleans for kitchens. We help you choose a frequency when scoping the service.
How much does restaurant cleaning in Melbourne cost?
Price depends on venue size, kitchen type, soiling levels, cleaning frequency, access times and any periodic deep cleaning. Share your venue details so we can assess the scope and provide an itemised quote rather than an unsupported flat rate.
