Overview
Restaurant and cafe clearance in West Kensington and Olympia W14, explained
This page prices restaurant and cafe clearance for West Kensington and Olympia W14 specifically: post-war stock, 47% privately rented and 4,112 households in total. Work starts at £380, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
How it works
How restaurant and cafe clearance works in West Kensington and Olympia
Five steps, the same on every W14 job, so you know what happens before you commit. In W14, New-build and conversion flats lined with dot-and-dab plasterboard — with 22% social-rented stock locally, block access is agreed with the estate office first 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 West Kensington and Olympia customers book us
Four things decide whether a W14 job goes well, and none of them are visible from a price list.
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. Event-day congestion at Olympia, red routes on North End Road and small block lifts.
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. Kensington (Olympia) (District, Overground) is the nearest station, so a W14 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
West Kensington and Olympia walls, not generic walls
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in W14, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the West Kensington and Olympia stock goes, where 31% owner-occupation means the same home is booked again rather than a new tenant each year.
Fixed prices
Restaurant and cafe clearance prices in West Kensington and Olympia
Fixed prices for W14 and the rest of Hammersmith and Fulham. 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. |

Working in West Kensington and Olympia
West Kensington and Olympia W14 at a glance
Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers West Kensington and Olympia — the numbers that actually change a restaurant and cafe clearance quote.
4,112 households sit inside the W14 neighbourhood covering West Kensington and Olympia. The build is post-war, the tenure profile renter-heavy, and 95% of those homes are flats.
Because 47% of West Kensington and Olympia is privately rented and 22% socially rented, a lot of W14 work is agreed with a landlord or managing agent rather than the person opening the door.
Expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork; locally that also means with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why London Borough of Hammersmith and Fulham kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded behind the plaster in W14. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, as the West Kensington and Olympia stock goes, where 31% 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.
Exhibition halls, mansion blocks and the Barons Court terraces. That character decides the practical detail of restaurant and cafe clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. West Kensington and Olympia is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Event-day congestion at Olympia, red routes on North End Road and small block lifts. Nearest station is Kensington (Olympia) (District, Overground), and two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment.
