Overview
Restaurant and cafe clearance in Primrose Hill NW1, explained
Booked mostly by social-housing-led households around Chalk Farm, restaurant and cafe clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £380. With 80% of Primrose Hill's 3,616 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in NW1 shape the slot length we hold.
How it works
How restaurant and cafe clearance works in Primrose Hill
Five steps, the same on every NW1 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Council and housing-association blocks built from precast concrete and dense block, as the Primrose Hill stock goes, and with 32% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is what we plan for here.
Step 1
Site visit and equipment list
Every appliance, fridge and fixture is listed against a disconnect-and-remove plan before a date is booked.
Step 2
Gas and electrical sign-off confirmed
We wait for written confirmation that appliances are isolated by a qualified engineer before moving them.
Step 3
Kitchen stripped in sequence
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
Grease trap and drainage cleared
Trap emptied and removed by a licensed handler, with the disposal note kept for the site file.
Step 5
Front-of-house and final sweep
Tables, chairs and fittings cleared, unit swept and photographed for the landlord handover.
Why choose us
Why Primrose Hill customers book us
What follows is specific to Primrose Hill: its walls, its access and the paperwork Camden agents ask for.
Booked around your day
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. Chalk Farm (Northern) is the nearest station, so a NW1 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Primrose Hill walls, not generic walls
We expect precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in NW1, often with surface conduit — measured on the walk in from Chalk Farm (Northern) rather than assumed from a map in NW1, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded.
Insured and documented
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.
Fixed prices
Restaurant and cafe clearance prices in Primrose Hill
Fixed prices for NW1 and the rest of Camden. The number of plumbed and gas-connected appliances, not the floor area. 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.
| 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. |

Scope
What's included in Primrose Hill
The same scope across NW1, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On NW1 jobs: certified F-gas degassing before any refrigeration or cold room is removed, agreed on the doorstep in Primrose Hill before anything is unpacked
- In Primrose Hill: grease trap emptying and disposal to a licensed food-waste treatment facility, timed against the walk in from Chalk Farm (Northern)
- Disconnection of gas and electrical appliances confirmed with a qualified engineer before removal, noted on the Primrose Hill job sheet so the next visit starts from it
- Standard on Camden bookings: extraction canopy, ductwork and filter removal, including access equipment where ceiling height requires it, allowing for the 32% of NW1 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off
- On NW1 jobs: segregation of stainless steel and scrap catering equipment for recycling credit where applicable, restaurant and cafe clearance included
- In Primrose Hill: waste transfer note and, where requested, a certificate of destruction for branded signage and menus, sized for the very narrow streets, resident bays all week and steep basement stairs on nearly every terrace
Not included
- Gas safe disconnection itself, which must be carried out or signed off by a Gas Safe engineer before we remove the appliance, which we refer on to the right trade in Primrose Hill
- Structural kitchen extract ducting that runs through the building fabric beyond the unit's own ceiling void, handled by London Borough of Camden or a specialist contractor instead
- Cellar cooling and beer line servicing contracts, which are usually held directly with the brewery or supplier, and we will say so before the NW1 visit rather than on the day
- Licensed premises signage removal that requires scaffold or a road closure, which is quoted separately, outside the fixed price on Primrose Hill bookings

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.

Primrose Hill NW1 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Primrose Hill — the numbers that actually change a restaurant and cafe clearance quote.
The NW1 stock around Primrose Hill summit is mainly Victorian. ONS records 80% flats, 20% houses and 3,616 households in Primrose Hill.
Owner-occupation runs at 35% in Primrose Hill, so alongside the 32% rental churn there is steady planned work — refurbishments, downsizes and probate clearances booked weeks ahead.
Primrose Hill substrates run to precast concrete panels and dense blockwork in NW1, often with surface conduit — measured on the walk in from Chalk Farm (Northern) rather than assumed from a map. Nothing is drilled until the wall has been sounded, because drilling blind into a panel with reinforcement or a buried cable behind it on these streets — which is why London Borough of Camden kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded is the mistake that costs a NW1 customer twice.
Anyone who knows Primrose Hill knows the pattern near Primrose Hill summit: pastel terraces around the hill with the best skyline view in north London. We plan the NW1 visit around it. Primrose Hill sits inside the Congestion Charge zone as well as ULEZ, so both are itemised on the quote rather than absorbed into an hourly rate.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: very narrow streets, resident bays all week and steep basement stairs on nearly every terrace. Chalk Farm (Northern) is the nearest station, and two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment.

Common questions
Restaurant and cafe clearance in Primrose Hill NW1 — your questions.
How much does restaurant and cafe clearance cost in Primrose Hill NW1?
Front-of-house strip-out, small unit starts at £380 in Primrose Hill on this side of Camden, with 35% owner-occupation locally, 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 across NW1. 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 on Camden bookings, with 20% of Primrose Hill homes being houses.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Primrose Hill NW1?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions for Primrose Hill (NW1) addresses, with a median age of 38 in this neighbourhood. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Primrose Hill most weeks on the streets near Primrose Hill summit, with 3,616 households on this patch.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Primrose Hill?
5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level for Primrose Hill (NW1) addresses, with this being London Borough of Camden territory.
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Primrose Hill doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Primrose Hill rounds. With 80% of Primrose Hill homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on NW1 jobs, with Camden parking rules in play — and this being London Borough of Camden territory, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Are your fitters insured for work in NW1?
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 for Primrose Hill (NW1) addresses, with 80% of homes here being flats. That paperwork is what most Camden letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat on the Primrose Hill rounds, with Camden parking rules in play.
What is not included in restaurant and cafe clearance in Primrose Hill?
Gas safe disconnection itself, which must be carried out or signed off by a Gas Safe engineer before we remove the appliance; Structural kitchen extract ducting that runs through the building fabric beyond the unit's own ceiling void; Cellar cooling and beer line servicing contracts on the Primrose Hill rounds — and 35% owner-occupation locally, with 20% of Primrose Hill homes being houses, which are usually held directly with the brewery or supplier; Licensed premises signage removal that requires scaffold or a road closure, which is quoted separately. Anything outside that scope is quoted separately so the Primrose Hill NW1 price you agree is the price you pay for Primrose Hill (NW1) addresses, with Primrose Hill summit a few streets away.
Who books restaurant and cafe clearance in Primrose Hill NW1 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 32% of Primrose Hill privately rented and 35% owner-occupied, roughly half the NW1 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on NW1 jobs — and 35% owner-occupation locally, with this being a short walk from Chalk Farm (Northern).
