Overview
This page prices restaurant and cafe clearance for West Wickham BR4 specifically: inter-war stock, 12% privately rented and 4,862 households in total. Work starts at £380, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Bromley permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
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
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. Wide roads and driveways; the High Street has timed loading only.
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. West Wickham (Southeastern) is the nearest station, so a BR4 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect timber stud partitions inside in West Wickham, cavity brickwork outside, the pattern behind 4,862 households inside the BR4 neighbourhood in BR4, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, as the West Wickham stock goes, where 83% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
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. |

The guys arrived prompt at 9 am . Sorry I’m rubbish at names but I remember the one guys initials were AB . He really worked hard . Both guys were very polite and were happy to pop back up the stairs to finish dusting the bedrooms surfaces that were missed . Not one moan… Read in full →
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. I had furniture assembly and clearance work to be done, and again it was done very professionally to a very high standard, and with absolute politeness at all times.

Working in West Wickham
West Wickham BR4 is inter-war and owner-occupier-led: 19% of homes here are flats and 80% are houses, across 4,862 households (ONS Census 2021).
Because 12% of West Wickham is privately rented and 5% socially rented, a lot of BR4 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect timber stud partitions inside in West Wickham, cavity brickwork outside, the pattern behind 4,862 households inside the BR4 neighbourhood behind the plaster in BR4. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a four-hole bracket with two screws in a stud and two in fresh air, as the West Wickham stock goes, where 83% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year is the fault we are called back to undo.
A quiet suburb of interwar housing with Coney Hall and Sparrows Den beyond. That character decides the practical detail of restaurant and cafe clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. West Wickham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
On access, wide roads and driveways; the High Street has timed loading only — 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 West Wickham (Southeastern).

Front-of-house strip-out, small unit starts at £380 in West Wickham on the West Wickham rounds, with 80% of West Wickham homes being houses, and every job is quoted as a fixed written price before a fitter is booked. The number of plumbed and gas-connected appliances, not the floor area on BR4 jobs. A small unit with a full kitchen and a grease trap can cost more to clear than a larger unit that only ever served coffee and cake in this 19% flats neighbourhood, with 83% owner-occupation locally — and Bromley parking rules in play.
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions in West Wickham, with this being a short walk from West Wickham (Southeastern). We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in West Wickham most weeks on Bromley bookings, with 12% of BR4 homes being privately rented.
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level in West Wickham, with this being a short walk from West Wickham (Southeastern).
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on this side of Bromley. With 19% of West Wickham homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm across BR4, with 4,862 households on this patch, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Wickham Court and Sparrows Den is the marker we route to in West Wickham, with 80% of West Wickham homes being houses, and wide roads and driveways; the High Street has timed loading only. A BR4 slot added to an existing Bromley round usually lands the same week rather than the next on this side of Bromley, with Wickham Court and Sparrows Den a few streets away.
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 on this side of Bromley — and 19% of homes here being flats, with 80% of West Wickham homes being houses. West Wickham sits close to West Wickham (Southeastern) across BR4, with 5% social-rented stock nearby, so we can usually add a BR4 job to an existing Bromley round at short notice.
Wide roads and driveways; the High Street has timed loading only on the West Wickham rounds.
