We test before we degrease
Testing the solution on a hidden spot is a step we treat as necessary, not optional.
Kitchen Cleaning in Al Salihiyah, Jeddah
Al Salihiyah is a newly built district in east Jeddah north of Al Hamdaniyah, reached by Al Furusiyah Street, laid out as subdivisions of new villas and apartments with vacant plots still lying between the buildings and construction ongoing. Eastern air is very dry and dust is coarser than the coast. Wide windows and large gardens collect fine sand. Construction dust enters with natural sand. Surfaces are new, glossy and very sensitive to strong products.

What changes about kitchen cleaning in Al Salihiyah
Fine eastern sand and dust settle on glossy new cabinet fronts before they can be wiped, mixed with cooking grease and hard to remove both together. For the method itself, see how we approach kitchen cleaning.
-
The first reason
Construction dust and grit mixed with natural sand
Al Salihiyah is newly built and construction continues in parts of the neighbourhood. Construction dust, gravel and cement enter homes along with natural sand from the dry eastern ground. New glossy cabinets are delicate and sand scratches them if mopped before sweeping. Construction every day means extra dust on every surface.
-
The second reason
Glossy new surfaces extremely delicate
Most kitchens in Al Salihiyah are glossy and brand new. Marble, porcelain, cabinets are costlier than old areas, in pale soft colours. A strong product may leave a lasting mark, a small pit, or change the colour. Testing on a very hidden area is essential and a very gentle product may be needed.
-
The third reason
Dry eastern air makes grease set fast
Eastern air is very dry, and grease dries and hardens fast before the product can work. A slightly stronger product is needed and longer contact time on the surface. Low humidity also means sediment in the sink from tank water.
What kitchen cleaning covers in Al Salihiyah
A newly developed area east of Jeddah between Al Hamdaniyah and Al Rahmaniyah, reached by Al Furusiyah Street, subdivisions of recent villas and apartments with vacant plots still lying between buildings and construction in progress.
-
Grease off the cabinet fronts
Glossy new cabinet fronts collect sand, dust and light grease in the new home. The product focuses on removing sand and dust alongside the thin grease layer.
-
Extractor hood and filter
The hood is new and powerful, but construction dust settles on the filter quickly. Weekly washing is essential during building.
-
Oven and hob
The hob is new and glossy and not yet blackened. It may carry residue from transport, installation and construction dust.
-
Tiles behind the hob
Tiles behind the hob are glossy and new, and sand may sit on them before grease. Deep sweeping comes first then gentle scrubbing.
-
Sink and mixer tap
Sink and tap are new shiny metals, may hold sediment from tank water. Dry air means more sediment deposit.
-
Floor and corners last
New glossy porcelain floors are scratched by grit if mopped before sweeping, so deep sweeping must come first.
Not included

How a kitchen is actually deep cleaned
-
1
We check the surfaces before we touch them
Painted cabinets, laminate, natural stone and stainless steel do not take the same degreaser.
-
2
Top down, always
We start high, the tops of cabinets and the hood, and work down to the floor.
-
3
Degrease and let it work
The degreaser is put on the heavy areas and given time to break the oil down before it is wiped.
-
4
The hood and filter separately
The metal filter carries the worst of the grease and is soaked and worked on its own, not just wiped in place, because a clogged filter puts the oil straight back into the air.
-
5
Stovetop, splash and counters down to the grout
The burners, the tiled splash and the grout lines take focused work, since the grout darkens first and a flat wipe passes over it.

We go over the kitchen with you before the team leaves.
The character of Al Salihiyah
New development: ongoing construction and vacant plots between the homes
A new development means your kitchen surfaces are glossy, modern and very delicate. Construction ongoing means extra dust daily. Dry eastern air makes grease harden fast. All of these together mean deep sweeping first, a gentle carefully chosen product, and longer contact time for the degreaser to work.

Questions about kitchen cleaning in Al Salihiyah
The home is brand new and the hob barely used. Is cleaning necessary now?
Yes. Even a new home needs cleaning after a month of occupation. Construction dust, sand and cement from ongoing building around the home settle on cabinets and hobs.
Cabinets are glossy and brand new. Is the degreaser safe on them?
New glossy cabinets are very delicate. We test on a very hidden corner first. We may use a very gentle product and clean fast before it dries.
The neighbourhood is new and construction is ongoing. How does building affect kitchen cleaning?
Building means extra dust, grit and cement entering daily. Very deep sweeping is essential before mopping. Once construction stops and the land settles, cleaning becomes easier.
Fine eastern sand enters every day. Does cleaning solve the problem?
Cleaning removes accumulated sand, but new sand enters daily. Daily deep sweeping is necessary. Deep cleaning handles weeks of buildup but prevention needs daily routine.
The floor is new shiny porcelain. Can it handle hard scrubbing?
New glossy porcelain is very delicate in the first year. We use a mop, not hard brushes. After a year or two it hardens slightly.
How many times a year does a kitchen in Al Salihiyah need deep cleaning?
Two to three times. New homes need an initial clean right after moving. Ongoing construction may mean three times. Once building around the home stops, twice yearly is enough.
Do I need to empty the kitchen before you come?
Clearing the countertops and moving loose items and food away helps us reach more surface and get through it faster. We do not wash the daily dishes or clear food as part of the service, so anything left out is worked around.
How often should a kitchen be deep cleaned?
It depends on how much you cook, not the calendar. A kitchen used for heavy daily cooking needs it sooner than one lightly used.
How much does kitchen cleaning in Al Salihiyah cost?
It is set after the inspection, because it follows the size of the job, the materials involved and their condition. Send photos on WhatsApp and we will give you an estimate before we reach Al Salihiyah.
