Overview
Restaurant and cafe clearance in Wimbledon SW19, explained
Restaurant and cafe clearance in Wimbledon SW19 is a fixed-price visit for owner-occupier-led homes in Merton, most of them mainly Victorian. 23,023 households sit inside this SW19 patch, 47% of them flats, so we quote on access near The All England Lawn Tennis Club rather than a London average.
How it works
How restaurant and cafe clearance works in Wimbledon
Five steps, the same on every SW19 job, so you know what happens before you commit. Victorian and Edwardian conversion flats with original lath-and-plaster partitions, as the Wimbledon stock goes, which is what a 47% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Wimbledon actually produces 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 Wimbledon customers book us
Local knowledge is not a slogan on this page — it is what stops a bracket coming out of a Wimbledon wall.
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. Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) is the nearest station, so a SW19 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
Wimbledon walls, not generic walls
We expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — the pattern behind 23,023 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood in SW19, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel — measured on the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) rather than assumed from a map.
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 Wimbledon
Fixed prices for SW19 and the rest of Merton. 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 Wimbledon
The same scope across SW19, whether the job is a single item or a full room.
Included in the price
- On SW19 jobs: certified F-gas degassing before any refrigeration or cold room is removed, local restaurant and cafe clearance included
- In Wimbledon: grease trap emptying and disposal to a licensed food-waste treatment facility, sized for the championship-fortnight restrictions, steep wimbledon hill road and village conservation limits
- Disconnection of gas and electrical appliances confirmed with a qualified engineer before removal, checked on every SW19 visit
- Standard on Merton bookings: extraction canopy, ductwork and filter removal, including access equipment where ceiling height requires it, with 23,023 households in this neighbourhood, it is the question we are asked most
- On SW19 jobs: segregation of stainless steel and scrap catering equipment for recycling credit where applicable, agreed on the doorstep in Wimbledon before anything is unpacked
- In Wimbledon: waste transfer note and, where requested, a certificate of destruction for branded signage and menus, timed against the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink)
Not included
- Gas safe disconnection itself, which must be carried out or signed off by a Gas Safe engineer before we remove the appliance, and we will say so before the SW19 visit rather than on the day
- Structural kitchen extract ducting that runs through the building fabric beyond the unit's own ceiling void, outside the fixed price on Wimbledon bookings
- Cellar cooling and beer line servicing contracts, which are usually held directly with the brewery or supplier, quoted separately if you need it arranged in SW19
- Licensed premises signage removal that requires scaffold or a road closure, which is quoted separately, which we refer on to the right trade in Wimbledon

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.

Published figures for the neighbourhood that covers Wimbledon — the numbers that actually change a restaurant and cafe clearance quote.
Census 2021 puts Wimbledon at 23,023 households with a median age of 37. The mainly Victorian stock is owner-occupier-led, which is why 53% houses and 47% flats need different handling in SW19.
Private renting sits at 34% and owner-occupation at 57%; the first group books restaurant and cafe clearance at short notice, the second plans it.
Expect with solid brick on the party and external walls — and lath and plaster over timber studs — the pattern behind 23,023 households inside the SW19 neighbourhood behind the plaster in SW19. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why a plasterboard plug spun into lime plaster; locally that also means which crumbles the key and drops the panel — measured on the walk in from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) rather than assumed from a map is the fault we are called back to undo.
Anyone who knows Wimbledon knows the pattern near The All England Lawn Tennis Club: the town centre and theatre below, the Village and common above. We plan the SW19 visit around it. Wimbledon is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Getting to the door matters as much as the job: championship-fortnight restrictions, steep Wimbledon Hill Road and Village conservation limits. Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) 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 Wimbledon SW19 — your questions.
How much does restaurant and cafe clearance cost in Wimbledon SW19?
Front-of-house strip-out, small unit starts at £380 in Wimbledon on the Wimbledon rounds, with 47% of homes here being flats, 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 Merton bookings. 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 the streets near The All England Lawn Tennis Club — and 23,023 households on this patch, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood.
Do you assemble IKEA and other flat-pack furniture in Wimbledon SW19?
Yes — IKEA, Argos, Wayfair, Made and independent brands are all built to the manufacturer's instructions on the Wimbledon rounds, with 57% owner-occupation locally. We are independent of every retailer; the names simply describe what we assemble in Wimbledon most weeks on SW19 jobs, with 8% social-rented stock nearby.
How long does flat-pack assembly take in Wimbledon?
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 Wimbledon rounds, with this being a short walk from Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink).
Will a built wardrobe fit through a Wimbledon doorway?
That is exactly why we build in the room it will live in on the Wimbledon rounds. With 47% of Wimbledon homes being flats, narrow hallways and tight turns are the norm for Wimbledon (SW19) addresses — and 27% one-person households here, with 8% social-rented stock nearby, so anything that will not pass a doorway once assembled is built where it stands.
Who books restaurant and cafe clearance in Wimbledon SW19 — tenants, landlords or owners?
All three. With 34% of Wimbledon privately rented and 57% owner-occupied, roughly half the SW19 diary is agent- or landlord-instructed and invoiced separately from the person at the door on Merton bookings — and a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, with 27% one-person households here.
How quickly can you reach Wimbledon from your Merton round?
The All England Lawn Tennis Club is the marker we route to on the Wimbledon rounds, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood, and championship-fortnight restrictions, steep Wimbledon Hill Road and Village conservation limits. A SW19 slot added to an existing Merton round usually lands the same week rather than the next on SW19 jobs, with 23,023 households on this patch.
Is same-day or evening restaurant and cafe clearance available in Merton?
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 on SW19 jobs, with a median age of 37 in this neighbourhood. Wimbledon sits close to Wimbledon (District, Southern, South Western, Tramlink) on the Wimbledon rounds, with this being London Borough of Merton territory — and The All England Lawn Tennis Club a few streets away, so we can usually add a SW19 job to an existing Merton round at short notice.
