About us
Real Kitchen Experience
We’re not just cleaners — we’ve run kitchens. Jake, our founder, used to be a head chef and restaurant owner. He knows the frustration of extractor cleaning companies leaving a mess behind. That’s why Highland Extractor Cleaning was started: to do it right.
Our Story
When we owned our own restaurant, we struggled to find local cleaning companies. After leaving the restaurant business during lockdown, we started Highland Extractor Cleaning. From a one-man team, we’ve grown to a crew of five — and we’re still growing strong.
Our Services
“If it’s got a kitchen and an extract system — we’ll do it.”
We currently serve:
Restaurants
We provide comprehensive services to a diverse range of restaurants throughout Scotland. Our clients include everything from family-run establishments to Michelin- starred venues. We take pride in supporting the culinary sector by ensuring their premises remain clean and compliant.
Hotels
Whether you operate an independent hotel or manage a larger hotel chain, we have the expertise to meet your needs. Our tailored solutions ensure that all hotel clients receive the highest standard of care and attention to detail.
Public attractions
We are privileged to maintain some of Scotland’s most cherished public attractions. Our work helps to preserve these valued sites, ensuring they remain welcoming and safe for all visitors.
Schools
School canteens also require regular maintenance of their extraction systems. We are proud to serve a large number of schools across the country, helping to create clean and safe environments for students and staff alike.
Takeaways
Takeaways remain ever popular, and many of our takeaway customers invite us back every 6–8 weeks. We provide regular cleaning of canopies and filters, helping to keep their facilities looking their best and operating to the highest standards.
Wildlife centres
Although wildlife centers are often categorized as public attractions, we believe they deserve special recognition. Wildlife centers play an important role in communities, and we are honored to keep them clean, safe and compliant.
Offshore bases
We are responsible for maintaining several offshore bases throughout Scotland. Our dedicated team ensures that kitchen facilities at these sites are consistently safe and operational. By carrying out regular maintenance and inspections, we help create secure environments where staff can rely on clean, well-functioning kitchens.
Boats
When we first began our operations, maintaining boat galleys was not something we had considered. However, over time, we have been fortunate enough to take responsibility for the upkeep of numerous boats across the country. Our team works diligently, coordinating our services with the boats’ docking schedules to ensure that galley facilities remain clean, safe, and fully operational for all crew members.
