Kensington and Chelsea · SW10 · Restaurant and cafe clearance
Same-week slots · Fully insured · Local West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour fitters · Fixed written pricesBooking restaurant and cafe clearance near Chelsea Harbour and Brompton Cemetery? Harbour estate access control, tower blocks with booked lifts and permit-only side streets, 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 West Brompton, restaurant and cafe clearance here covers supply-free fitting from £380. With 90% of West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour's 6,731 homes in flats, lift access and stair carries in SW10 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. West Brompton (District, Overground) is the nearest station, so a SW10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect dot-and-dab plasterboard over blockwork in SW10, with metal stud partitions between rooms, which is why Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea kerb rules get settled before the van is loaded in SW10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is West Brompton and Chelsea Harbour gives us short screws that grip only the board and slowly lever it off the dabs, a median age of 37 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. Harbour estate access control, tower blocks with booked lifts and permit-only side streets.
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.
This was my second job for Hello services and I was delighted to have Adam and Sultan back again.
