Clean Kitchen Grease and Food Mess After a Halloween Feast

A busy cooking session can leave spills, food residue and grease across the kitchen. Once the meal is finished and appliances are cool, work from food-contact surfaces to floors, using products that suit each material and following their labels.

Clear food and loose debris first

Store or discard food safely, collect scraps and clear the sink and worktop. Keep raw-food utensils separate from ready-to-eat items and follow ordinary food-handling guidance. Do not spray cleaner onto food, dishes or appliances that are still hot.

Wipe benches and cabinet fronts

Remove crumbs before wiping. Use a product permitted for the benchtop and cabinet finish, apply it as directed and dry surfaces where appropriate. Test an inconspicuous area if the finish is unfamiliar; avoid abrasives, excess water and unapproved home mixtures.

Clean cookware and the sink

Soak cookware only if its maker allows it, then use a suitable detergent and non-damaging tool. Clean the sink with a compatible product and rinse as directed. Never mix products, including vinegar, bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner or oven cleaner.

Handle oven, cooktop and rangehood separately

Switch appliances off and let them cool fully. Consult each manual before removing filters or using a cleaner inside an oven, on a cooktop or near electrical parts. Specialist appliance interiors are not interchangeable with ordinary surface cleaning.

Finish with floors and rubbish

Sweep or vacuum loose crumbs, then clean the floor using a method suitable for its material. Wipe and dry surfaces as directed, remove food waste and leave walkways clear. For a larger reset, request a quote with the rooms, surfaces and optional appliance tasks listed.
