Bexley · DA5 · Restaurant and cafe clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Bexley Village fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking restaurant and cafe clearance near Hall Place and Gardens? Narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads, and that is planned into the slot rather than discovered on the day. Prices start at £380 and are fixed before we travel. Units are built in the room they live in, then wall-anchored where they need it.
Overview
Booked mostly by owner-occupier-led households around Bexley, restaurant and cafe clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £380. With 21% of Bexley Village's 3,319 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in DA5 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
Step 1
Every appliance, fridge and fixture is listed against a disconnect-and-remove plan before a date is booked.
Step 2
We wait for written confirmation that appliances are isolated by a qualified engineer before moving them.
Step 3
Fridges and cold rooms first for degassing, then cooking equipment, then extraction, so the crew is never waiting on a certificate mid-job.
Step 4
Trap emptied and removed by a licensed handler, with the disposal note kept for the site file.
Step 5
Tables, chairs and fittings cleared, unit swept and photographed for the landlord handover.
Why choose us
Three to five working days where degassing and Gas Safe sign-off need to be arranged first; a front-of-house-only clear can often be booked within 48 hours. Bexley (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a DA5 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect timber stud partitions inside in DA5, cavity brickwork outside, and narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads in DA5, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Bexley Village gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, the reality on the streets around Hall Place and Gardens.
Registered waste carrier with F-gas certified degassing for refrigeration and licensed disposal for grease trap waste, both receipted separately from the general transfer note.
Two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment. Narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads.
Fixed prices
| Job | From | Typical time | What sets the price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Front-of-house strip-out, small unit | £380 | 3–4 hrs | Tables, chairs, till point and soft furnishings cleared from a café-sized unit under around 800 sq ft. |
| Commercial kitchen equipment removal, per item | £65 | 20–30 min | Ovens, fryers and prep tables are heavy, often plumbed or hard-wired, and need disconnection before they can be moved safely. |
| Refrigeration and F-gas degassing, per unit | £95 | 30–45 min | Fridges and cold rooms holding refrigerant must be certified degassed before removal, which is a licensed job, not a lift-and-carry one. |
| Grease trap emptying and removal | £210 | 1–2 hrs | Trapped fat, oil and grease is controlled waste that has to go to a licensed treatment facility, and the trap itself is often built into the drainage and needs careful disconnection. |
| Extraction canopy and ductwork removal | £340 | half day | Canopy, ductwork and filters are usually the last things fitted and the hardest to remove, often needing access equipment for ceiling-height runs. |
| Full unit closure clearance | £680 | 1 day | Kitchen, front-of-house and cellar cleared and swept in one visit for a lease handover, priced against the full inventory rather than by room. |

Hannah and her friend were friendly and thoughtful. They were very professional and hard working. They also turned a junk room into a nice bedroom. I cannot thank them or praise them enough.
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again.

Working in Bexley Village
Bexley Village DA5 is mainly Victorian and owner-occupier-led: 21% of homes here are flats and 79% are houses, across 3,319 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 14% of Bexley Village is privately rented and 5% socially rented, a lot of DA5 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Bexley Village substrates run to timber stud partitions inside in DA5, cavity brickwork outside, and narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because Bexley Village gives us a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, the reality on the streets around Hall Place and Gardens is the mistake that costs a DA5 customer twice.
Bexley Village is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — a genuine village on the Cray with Hall Place's Tudor gardens next door — which is why a DA5 quote is not a Bexley average.
On access, narrow village lanes with a one-way section; driveways on the newer roads — one reason two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment. Fitters travelling in use Bexley (Southeastern).
