Overview
This page prices restaurant and cafe clearance for Richmond Hill and Ham TW10 specifically: Georgian and early Victorian stock, 15% privately rented and 2,156 households in total. Work starts at £380, fixed in writing, with parking and London Borough of Richmond upon Thames permit rules costed before an insured fitter travels.
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
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. Extremely steep hill, narrow riverside lanes at Ham and conservation-area limits.
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. Richmond (District, Overground, South Western) is the nearest station, so a TW10 visit rarely needs a whole morning set aside.
We expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, which is what a 35% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Richmond Hill and Ham actually produces in TW10, and we carry the anchors, through-fixings and long bits that match. The mistake we spend most time undoing here is fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Richmond Hill and Ham stock goes, the pattern behind 2,156 households inside the TW10 neighbourhood.
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.

Working in Richmond Hill and Ham
In Richmond Hill and Ham (TW10) the split is 35% flats to 65% houses over 2,156 households, and the stock is Georgian and early Victorian.
The owner-occupier-led mix here (58% owned, 15% privately rented) means a TW10 diary swings between short-notice tenancy deadlines and appointments set a fortnight out.
Expect some of it dry-lined during a later refurbishment, over solid London stock brick, which is what a 35% flat share across the ONS neighbourhood covering Richmond Hill and Ham actually produces behind the plaster in TW10. That is why fixings are picked in the room rather than off a van shelf, and why fixings landing in soft lime mortar joints instead of the brick body, as the Richmond Hill and Ham stock goes, the pattern behind 2,156 households inside the TW10 neighbourhood is the fault we are called back to undo.
The protected view from the hill, Ham House and the riverside meadows below. That character decides the practical detail of restaurant and cafe clearance here far more than the borough boundary does. Richmond Hill and Ham is outside the Congestion Charge zone but inside ULEZ; our vehicles are compliant, so nothing is added for it.
Extremely steep hill, narrow riverside lanes at Ham and conservation-area limits. Nearest station is Richmond (District, Overground, South Western), and two to three operatives as standard, with a specialist F-gas engineer booked in for any unit holding refrigerant-charged equipment.
