Camden · NW6 · Restaurant and cafe clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local Kilburn fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking restaurant and cafe clearance near Kilburn High Road and the Kiln Theatre? Kilburn High Road is red-routed; side streets are permit-only with narrow entrances, 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 renter-heavy households around Kilburn, restaurant and cafe clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £380. With 93% of Kilburn's 8,237 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in NW6 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. Kilburn (Jubilee) is the nearest station, so a NW6 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the pattern behind 8,237 households inside the NW6 neighbourhood in NW6, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is Kilburn gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here.
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. Kilburn High Road is red-routed; side streets are permit-only with narrow entrances.
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.

Working in Kilburn
In Kilburn (NW6) the split is 93% flats to 7% houses over 8,237 households, and the stock is mainly Victorian.
The renter-heavy mix here (22% owned, 39% privately rented) means a NW6 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect often with surface conduit, over precast concrete panels and dense blockwork, the pattern behind 8,237 households inside the NW6 neighbourhood behind the plaster in NW6. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why Kilburn gives us drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it, a median age of 34 in this neighbourhood shapes what gets ordered here is the fault we are called back to undo.
Kilburn sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate. What shapes the job more is the neighbourhood itself — a long high road of Irish pubs and independents, flanked by Victorian terraces and estates — which is why a NW6 quote is not a Camden average.
On access, kilburn High Road is red-routed; side streets are permit-only with narrow entrances — 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 Kilburn (Jubilee).
