Commercial kitchen degreasing is the deep removal of built-up grease from cook lines, fryers, flat-tops, walls, ceilings, floors, and drains — the load nightly closing crews never get to. Bailey & Bear does it after close in Austin restaurants and bars, so the line is stripped, rinsed, and dry before prep arrives.
Commercial kitchen degreasing is the deep removal of built-up grease from cook lines, fryers, flat-tops, walls, ceilings, floors, and drains — the load nightly closing crews never get to. Bailey & Bear does it after close in Austin restaurants and bars, so the line is stripped, rinsed, and dry before prep arrives.
We start when your last table clears and work to a firm finish time set against prep arrival — not an open-ended window. Nothing is left wet or in pieces. Every job ends with the line reassembled, the floor dry, and the kitchen ready to cook.
Degreasing means pulling the line out where it can be pulled, getting behind and beneath fryers, ranges, and flat-tops, and clearing the accumulation on the wall and ceiling surfaces above the cook line. If it can only be reached with the kitchen cold and empty, that is precisely what this service is for.
Grease-loaded kitchen floors do not respond to a mop — they need degreaser worked into the quarry tile and grout, then extracted, with the floor drains and drain lines cleared at the same time. Slick floors and slow drains are usually the same problem.
Hood and duct interiors are a certified trade under NFPA 96 with its own cleaning schedule. We do not perform or quote that work. We clean everything around it — filters housing faces, the wall and ceiling surrounds, the line beneath — and point you to certified partners for the interior.
This is the high-mess, off-hours work a lot of crews decline. Bailey & Bear runs after-close commercial cleaning for Austin rooms including Uchi, Loro, Kung Fu Saloon, Brazos Hall, and 800 Congress — kitchens and bars that cannot give up a service window and cannot open on a room that is still wet. Fully insured, work performed by licensed subcontractors, one accountable owner from the walkthrough to the final check.
We walk the kitchen before quoting. What moves the number is the grease load, how much of the line can actually be pulled, floor type and square footage, drain condition, and whether this is a first-time catch-up or a maintained recurring interval. A first strip on a kitchen that has gone a year without one is a different job from a scheduled quarterly — and it is priced as one. You get a flat, written price before any work starts. No hourly guessing.
Most operators book degreasing on a recurring cycle alongside their nightly service. If you want the honest interval for your kitchen first, see how often a restaurant kitchen should be deep cleaned.

No. Hood and duct interiors are a certified trade under NFPA 96 with its own inspection and cleaning schedule. We clean everything around the hood — the surrounds, the wall and ceiling surfaces, the line beneath it — and refer the interior to certified partners.
No. The work is scheduled after close, on your slowest night, with a firm finish time set against prep arrival. The line goes back together and the floor is dry before your first prep cook walks in.
It is quoted after a walkthrough, not from a price list. Grease load, how much of the line can be pulled, floor square footage and type, drain condition, and whether it is a first-time catch-up or a maintained recurring interval all move the number. You get a flat, written price before any work starts.
High-volume fryer and char-grill lines running seven days a week are typically on a 30-day cycle. Moderate-volume full-service kitchens land at 60 to 90 days. Bars with a limited food program run about every 90 days. Cook volume drives the interval more than square footage does.
Yes. Bar wells, mats, back-bar surfaces, sticky floors, and floor drains are part of the same after-close scope. Bailey & Bear works Austin bars and nightclubs on the same overnight schedule as restaurant kitchens.
