Overview

Restaurant and cafe clearance in Greenwich SE10, explained

Booked mostly by mixed-tenure households around Cutty Sark, restaurant and cafe clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £380. With 73% of Greenwich's 17,397 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SE10 shape the slot length we hold.

How it works

How restaurant and cafe clearance works in Greenwich

Five steps, the same on every SE10 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Greenwich gives us new-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard, and with 31% of homes here privately rented, it sets the booking date as often as the job does is what we plan for here.
  1. 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.

  2. Step 2

    Gas and electrical sign-off confirmed

    We wait for written confirmation that appliances are isolated by a qualified engineer before moving them.

  3. 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.

  4. Step 4

    Grease trap and drainage cleared

    Trap emptied and removed by a licensed handler, with the disposal note kept for the site file.

  5. 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 Greenwich customers book us

Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Greenwich wall.

Greenwich walls, not generic walls

We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — measured on the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR) rather than assumed from a map in SE10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is in SE10, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first.

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.

Crew sized to the job

Two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment. Cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access.

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. Cutty Sark (DLR) is the nearest station, so a SE10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.

Fixed prices

Restaurant and cafe clearance prices in Greenwich

Fixed prices for SE10 and the rest of Greenwich. 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.
Restaurant and cafe clearance price guide for Greenwich SE10
JobFromTypical timeWhat sets the price
Front-of-house strip-out, small unit£3803–4 hrsTables, chairs, till point and soft furnishings cleared from a café-sized unit under around 800 sq ft.
Commercial kitchen equipment removal, per item£6520–30 minOvens, 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£9530–45 minFridges 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£2101–2 hrsTrapped 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£340half dayCanopy, 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£6801 dayKitchen, front-of-house and cellar cleared and swept in one visit for a lease handover, priced against the full inventory rather than by room.

Restaurant and café clearance is quoted plus VAT at 20% after a site visit, because kitchen equipment varies enormously in size and fixing. F-gas degassing certificates, grease trap disposal and transfer notes are included; loading bay suspensions are itemised.

Scope

What's included in Greenwich

The same scope across SE10, whether the job is a single item or a full room.

Included in the price

  • Certified F-gas degassing before any refrigeration or cold room is removed — including restaurant and cafe clearance
  • Standard on Greenwich bookings: grease trap emptying and disposal to a licensed food-waste treatment facility, arranged with Royal Borough of Greenwich where the kerb needs it
  • On SE10 jobs: disconnection of gas and electrical appliances confirmed with a qualified engineer before removal, with 73% of homes here being flats, planned around the stair or the lift
  • In Greenwich: extraction canopy, ductwork and filter removal, including access equipment where ceiling height requires it, the way it is done on Greenwich jobs
  • Segregation of stainless steel and scrap catering equipment for recycling credit where applicable, noted on the Greenwich job sheet so the next visit starts from it
  • Standard on Greenwich bookings: waste transfer note and, where requested, a certificate of destruction for branded signage and menus, allowing for the 31% of SE10 homes that are privately rented and need the landlord's sign-off

Not included

  • Gas safe disconnection itself, which must be carried out or signed off by a Gas Safe engineer before we remove the appliance, outside the fixed price on Greenwich bookings
  • Structural kitchen extract ducting that runs through the building fabric beyond the unit's own ceiling void, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SE10
  • Cellar cooling and beer line servicing contracts, which are usually held directly with the brewery or supplier, handled by Royal Borough of Greenwich or a specialist contractor instead
  • Licensed premises signage removal that requires scaffold or a road closure, which is quoted separately, and we will say so before the SE10 visit rather than on the day

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. They did an excellent job yet again… Read in full →

Working in Greenwich

Greenwich SE10 at a glance

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Greenwich — the numbers that actually change a restaurant and cafe clearance quote.

Walk Greenwich from The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark outwards and the Georgian and early Victorian pattern is obvious: 73% of the 17,397 households in SE10 live in flats, 27% in houses.

Private renting sits at 31% and owner-occupation at 40%; the first group books restaurant and cafe clearance at short notice, the second plans it.

Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms — measured on the walk in from Cutty Sark (DLR) rather than assumed from a map behind the plaster in SE10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why in SE10, short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs — with 29% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first is the fault we are called back to undo.

Two streets can behave very differently in Greenwich: world Heritage centre of the market, the Cutty Sark and the Observatory on the hill. The quote reflects the street the job is actually on. Greenwich is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.

On access, cobbled one-way lanes, market-day closures and listed frontages with no rear access — 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 Cutty Sark (DLR).

Common questions

Restaurant and cafe clearance in Greenwich SE10 — your questions.

  • How much does restaurant and cafe clearance cost in Greenwich SE10?

    Front-of-house strip-out, small unit starts at £380 in Greenwich around Cutty Sark (DLR), with Greenwich parking rules in play, 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 SE10 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 on this side of Greenwich — and 32% one-person households here, with 17,397 households on this patch.

  • Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Greenwich SE10?

    Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on this side of Greenwich, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR). We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Greenwich most weeks in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with 40% owner-occupation locally.

  • How long does flat-pack assembly take in Greenwich?

    5–2 hours. Sliding-door and corner wardrobes take two to four times as long because the tracks have to be dead level on the Greenwich rounds, with 31% of SE10 homes being privately rented.

  • Will a built wardrobe fit through a Greenwich doorway?

    That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in for Greenwich (SE10) addresses. With 73% of Greenwich homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm on the streets near The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark, with 29% social-rented stock nearby, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.

  • Are your fitters insured for work in SE10?

    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 around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 73% of homes here being flats. That paperwork is what most Greenwich letting agents and managing agents ask for before work starts in a leasehold flat in this 73% flats neighbourhood, with Greenwich parking rules in play.

  • What is not included in restaurant and cafe clearance in Greenwich?

    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 SE10 jobs — and 73% of homes here being flats, with Greenwich parking rules in play, 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 Greenwich SE10 price you agree is the price you pay around Cutty Sark (DLR), with 73% of homes here being flats.

  • Who books restaurant and cafe clearance in Greenwich SE10 — tenants, landlords or owners?

    All three. With 31% of Greenwich privately rented and 40% owner-occupied, roughly half the SE10 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on the Greenwich rounds — and The Royal Observatory and the Cutty Sark a few streets away, with this being a short walk from Cutty Sark (DLR).
