What Is Green Steam Cleaning?

Keeping a commercial kitchen clean isn’t just about meeting codes—it’s about protecting your staff, your guests, and your reputation. One area that often gets overlooked is right under your feet: the floors. Greasy, grimy, or stained tile floors can be more than just an eyesore; they pose a major safety hazard and can leave a bad impression on guests who get a glimpse into your kitchen. That’s where Kitchen Guard’s Green Steam Cleaning comes in.

How Does Green Steam Cleaning Work for Commercial Kitchens?

Green Steam Cleaning is a powerful, eco-friendly cleaning solution that uses high-temperature steam to break down grease, remove buildup, and sanitize surfaces—all without the use of harsh chemicals. It’s not only safe for the environment but also incredibly effective in restoring floors to like-new condition.

Kitchen Guard’s Green Steam Cleaning service is designed to target the toughest, most overlooked grime in commercial kitchens. Think caked-on food in grout lines, excess grease in tile pores, and buildup in hard-to-reach areas beneath heavy equipment. These aren’t just cosmetic issues—they’re safety and hygiene concerns.

Why Floors Matter More Than You Think

In modern commercial kitchens, customers often have a clear view of the cooking area. That makes aesthetics more important than ever. Shiny, clean floors don’t just look better—they show guests that cleanliness is a priority in your operation. But more importantly, they help prevent slips and falls, which are among the most common workplace injuries in foodservice.

Grease buildup on floors can turn any surface into a slipping hazard. Regular mopping isn’t enough to break down embedded grime or sanitize tile and grout properly. Green Steam Cleaning penetrates deep into surfaces to dissolve stubborn grease and eliminate bacteria, mold, and mildew—helping to create a safer, healthier environment.

A Deep Clean Where You Need It Most

Kitchen Guard’s Green Steam Cleaning goes far beyond the surface. We focus on:

  • Tile and Grout: Our high-pressure steam removes grease and food particles lodged deep in grout lines, restoring your floors to their original color and texture.
  • Under Equipment: We clean those tough-to-reach spaces beneath ovens, fryers, and prep stations that often harbor dangerous buildup.
  • Corners and Crevices: No more ignoring edges and tight spots—steam reaches where traditional methods fall short.

Don’t Forget the Front of House

While our main focus may be the kitchen, Green Steam Cleaning is also ideal for front-of-house areas like:

  • Bars and Café Stations: We eliminate odor, bar flies, and sticky grime to create a cleaner, more welcoming atmosphere.
  • Outdoor Patios and Dumpsters: Grease stains and dark patches can leave a poor impression on customers and become slipping hazards for staff. We make them disappear.
  • Parking Garages: Our eco-friendly process includes reclaimed wastewater systems that allow us to clean small to large garage areas while reducing water waste.
  • Awnings: No more risking employee safety to remove bird mess or pollen. We handle the dirty work with precision and care.

When to Schedule a Cleaning

If your floors look stained, feel sticky, or have become a slip hazard, it’s time to schedule a professional deep clean. Ideally, kitchens should be steam-cleaned on a regular schedule—whether quarterly, monthly, or bi-weekly—depending on your kitchen’s traffic and cooking volume.
