Commercial Kitchen Cleaning in Ann Arbor, MI
Kitchen exhaust, equipment, cold-storage, and floor cleaning for downtown restaurants, campus dining, hotels, and healthcare food service.
Ann Arbor packs a dense restaurant district, a large student and hospital population, and year-round event traffic into a small footprint. That means tight back-of-house spaces, heavy fryer and grill use, and very little downtime to clean in. ARC works around your service hours to keep hoods, equipment, coolers, and floors clean, safe, and inspection-ready.

ARC Commercial Cleaning Solutions does commercial kitchen cleaning in Ann Arbor, MI — kitchen exhaust cleaning to NFPA 96 standards, cooking equipment, walk-in coolers, and kitchen floors. Andrew and Rebecka's family-owned crew cleans downtown restaurants, university and hospital food service, hotels, and school kitchens after hours, and photographs every visit.
Built for Ann Arbor: Downtown Dining, Campus Food Service, and Hospital-Area Kitchens
Between Main Street, State Street, and Kerrytown, Ann Arbor kitchens run long hours with limited back-of-house room — and football Saturdays, graduation, and art fair push volume even higher. Campus and hospital-area dining operations add another layer: documentation, insurance requirements, and cleaning windows that have to be booked around a calendar. Kitchen exhaust cleaning in Ann Arbor, MI is the service most operators search for first, and it is where ARC starts: full-system grease removal from filters through ductwork to the fan, to NFPA 96 standards, with before-and-after photos you can hand to a fire inspector or an insurer. From there we handle the rest of the commercial kitchen cleaning services an Ann Arbor kitchen needs — fryers, flat tops, charbroilers, ovens and racks, walk-in coolers and freezers, degreased and de-slicked tile floors, and power washing for dumpster pads and loading areas out back. Because the restaurant district is dense and parking is tight, we plan the visit around your close, stage equipment where it will not block a neighbor, and leave the kitchen ready for the next open rather than for the next shift to clean up after us.
University of Michigan, Michigan Medicine, and the Weekends That Change Everything
A lot of Ann Arbor food service is not a restaurant at all. University of Michigan dining halls, campus cafés, athletic-facility concessions, and Michigan Medicine cafeterias and patient-food kitchens run to institutional standards, which means a vendor has to show insurance, show up in the window it was given, and leave paperwork behind. ARC schedules that work around semester breaks, holiday shutdowns, and low-census weeks so a full hood, cold-storage, and floor reset happens when the kitchen is quietest. Then there is the other Ann Arbor calendar: seven or eight home football Saturdays, commencement, move-in week, and art fair, each one dropping months of grease into a hood in a matter of days. Operators who ride those spikes usually want commercial kitchen cleaning services scheduled just before and just after — cleaned going in so the exhaust pulls properly through the rush, cleaned again coming out so nothing bakes on. Tell Andrew which weekends matter to you and ARC will build the year around them.
