Our Comprehensive Restaurant Cleaning Services
Kitchen Deep Cleaning
Our kitchen deep cleaning service addresses every surface where grease, food residue, and bacteria accumulate. We clean behind and under all equipment, degrease walls and ceilings, scrub floor tile grout, sanitize cutting boards and prep tables, detail clean ovens and ranges, pressure wash floor drains, and disinfect all high-touch surfaces. Every service uses EPA-registered sanitizers approved for food contact surfaces. We document every cleaning with before/after photos and chemical concentration logs for your records.
Exhaust Hood & Ventilation System Cleaning
Chicago requires exhaust hood cleaning frequency based on cooking volume per NFPA 96. Quick Cleaning provides certified hood cleaning with complete grease removal from hoods, ducts, fans, and rooftop exhaust systems. We issue official compliance stickers, maintain detailed service logs, and schedule cleanings to meet your insurance requirements. Our technicians are trained in confined space safety and use specialized degreasers that remove carbonized buildup without damaging metal surfaces.
Dining Room & Front-of-House Cleaning
First impressions matter. Our front-of-house service includes high-dusting of chandeliers and décor, window cleaning (interior and exterior), booth and chair deep cleaning, carpet extraction or hard floor refinishing, baseboard detailing, and restroom sanitization with odor control. We use low-odor, fast-drying products so you can open on schedule. Our team respects your restaurant’s ambiance, working quietly and efficiently during closed hours.
Floor Cleaning & Restoration
Restaurant floors endure extreme abuse from foot traffic, spills, and grease. Quick Cleaning provides tile and grout deep cleaning, quarry tile restoration, VCT stripping and waxing, epoxy floor maintenance, and slip-resistance treatment. We address grease buildup in floor joints, restore original floor appearance, and apply commercial-grade sealants that extend floor life and simplify daily maintenance.
Equipment Cleaning & Sanitization
We detail clean all restaurant equipment according to manufacturer specifications: ovens, ranges, fryers, grills, salamanders, steam tables, refrigeration units, ice machines, dishwashers, and more. Our service includes coil cleaning for refrigeration efficiency, gasket replacement recommendations, and preventive maintenance tips. Clean equipment operates more efficiently, lasts longer, and produces better food.
Chicago Restaurant Health Code Compliance
The Chicago Department of Public Health conducts unannounced inspections using a risk-based system. Violations are categorized as critical (posing immediate health risks) or non-critical. Quick Cleaning’s services directly address the most common violations:
- Code 4-601.11 Equipment & Surfaces: We ensure all food contact surfaces are clean and sanitized
- Code 4-602.13 Non-Food Contact Surfaces: We clean floors, walls, ceilings, and equipment exteriors
- Code 6-501.12 Cleaning Methods: We use approved chemicals at proper concentrations with contact time logs
- NFPA 96 Hood Cleaning: We provide certified exhaust system cleaning with documentation
- Chicago Municipal Code 7-28-390: We maintain grease interceptors and waste systems per city requirements
Our pre-inspection service includes a walk-through using the same checklist health inspectors use, immediate correction of critical violations, and staff training on maintaining cleanliness between services. We’ve helped restaurants improve inspection scores from “Pass with Conditions” to “Pass” with zero violations.
FAQ's -Frequently Asked Questions - Restaurant Cleaning Chicago
How much does restaurant cleaning cost in Chicago?
Restaurant cleaning in Chicago typically ranges from $500-$2,000 per service depending on your establishment’s size, scope of work, and frequency. A 2,000 sq ft restaurant with full kitchen, dining room, and restrooms averages $800-$1,200 for deep cleaning. Monthly maintenance plans reduce per-service costs by 20-30%. Quick Cleaning provides free, no-obligation quotes with transparent pricing—no hidden fees. Contact us at (773)800-2524 or request a quote online for exact pricing tailored to your restaurant.
How often should a restaurant be deep cleaned in Chicago?
Chicago health code requires ongoing cleanliness, but deep cleaning frequency depends on your cooking volume and equipment. High-volume kitchens (serving 200+ meals daily) benefit from weekly deep cleaning. Moderate volume restaurants (100-200 meals daily) should deep clean bi-weekly. Lower volume establishments can maintain standards with monthly deep cleaning plus daily maintenance. Hood systems require quarterly to monthly cleaning per NFPA 96 based on cooking type. Quick Cleaning assesses your specific needs and recommends a customized schedule that maintains compliance cost-effectively.
What is included in commercial kitchen cleaning?
Quick Cleaning’s commercial kitchen cleaning includes: complete equipment degreasing (ovens, ranges, fryers, grills, hoods), food preparation surface sanitization, walk-in cooler and freezer cleaning, floor scrubbing and degreasing (including floor drains), wall and ceiling cleaning, shelving and storage area organization, exhaust fan and filter cleaning, hand sink and three-compartment sink detailing, and trash area sanitization. We use ANSI/NSF approved methods, document chemical concentrations, and provide service logs for health department audits. Every kitchen cleaning meets Chicago health code 4-601.11 requirements.
Do you clean during business hours?
Quick Cleaning works around your schedule. Most restaurants prefer overnight or early morning cleaning (typically 11 PM – 6 AM) so we never interfere with service. We also accommodate late-night establishments by cleaning during off-peak hours. For emergency cleaning or specific projects, we can work during business hours with minimal disruption—using low-noise equipment and staging work areas. Our flexibility is one reason Chicago restaurants trust us for over a decade.
Are your cleaners background checked and insured?
Absolutely. Every Quick Cleaning technician undergoes comprehensive background checks including criminal history and previous employment verification. Our company carries $2 million general liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. We’re fully bonded for your protection. You’ll never have unsupervised or unvetted individuals in your restaurant. We provide insurance certificates upon request for your records.
Can you help us pass a health inspection?
Yes. Quick Cleaning offers pre-inspection services where we conduct a thorough walk-through using the Chicago Department of Public Health inspection checklist. We identify and immediately address critical violations, clean commonly cited problem areas (floor drains, grease buildup, equipment surfaces), and provide documentation of cleaning for inspector review. We’ve helped over 200 Chicago restaurants improve inspection scores. While we can’t guarantee inspection results (inspectors evaluate many factors), we ensure cleanliness isn’t the reason for violations.
What areas of Chicago do you serve?
Quick Cleaning serves all Chicago neighborhoods and surrounding suburbs. Our coverage includes: Loop, River North, West Loop, Gold Coast, Lincoln Park, Lakeview, Wicker Park, Bucktown, Logan Square, Pilsen, Chinatown, Bronzeville, Hyde Park, South Loop, Streeterville, Old Town, Andersonville, Uptown, Edgewater, Rogers Park, Bridgeport, and all other Chicago areas.

We respond within 2 hours for urgent situations including: grease fires and smoke damage, sewage backups, equipment malfunctions causing spills, pre-inspection emergency cleanings, and post-event intensive cleaning. Our emergency service includes rapid response teams, industrial cleaning equipment, and health code expertise to get you operational fast. Call our emergency hotline at [PHONE] anytime for immediate assistance.
What certifications should a restaurant cleaning service have?
Professional restaurant cleaners should have: ServSafe Food Handler certification (understanding food safety), OSHA safety training (handling chemicals and equipment safely), NFPA 96 certification for hood cleaning, and knowledge of local health codes. Quick Cleaning’s team holds all these certifications plus ongoing training in Chicago-specific regulations. We’re members of the ISSA (International Sanitary Supply Association) and maintain relationships with Chicago Department of Public Health inspectors to stay current on regulation changes.
Can you work with our existing cleaning schedule?
Absolutely. Quick Cleaning complements or replaces your current cleaning routine based on your needs. Many restaurants use us for monthly or quarterly deep cleaning while maintaining daily cleaning in-house. Others outsource all cleaning to us. We coordinate with your staff, work around deliveries and prep schedules, and integrate seamlessly into your operations. Our goal is to make professional cleaning effortless for you while elevating your restaurant’s cleanliness standards.
