Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Aaron's Hill
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. We empty the built-up grease and food solids and the chambers and baffles cleaned, and check the trap is working properly. If you’re dealing with sinks that drain slowly and an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying, we can help.
In a place like Aaron's Hill, kitchens often sit in older buildings with older drains. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is normally the first sign.
Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Aaron's Hill
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
The cost depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
We can often survey from photos. Try to include:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work, before any work starts.
Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Let us know if the kitchen gets busier
Collect waste cooking oil separately rather than pouring it down the sink and the trap won’t fill as quickly. It makes a real difference.
A trap that’s left too long stops catching grease. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and saves a call-out for a blocked drain.
What grease trap cleaning looks like in Aaron's Hill
The FSA’s data shows about 15 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered across Aaron's Hill and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever they cook, the kitchen and its drains need the same attention as a restaurant’s. In Aaron's Hill, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Waverley council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
If you run a café or takeaway near Godalming station, a deep clean overnight means the kitchen opens as normal next morning. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Milford Hospital about 1.1 miles south, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.
Aaron's Hill is about 1 mile west of Godalming, in Surrey. Aaron's Hill gets the same approach as every site we work on: diagnosis first, a fixed price, out-of-hours working where needed and a written report with pictures. Our area takes in 395 places across Surrey, large and small.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and pictures, so records stay tidy.
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
How it works
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. For a site near Aaron's Hill, the work is booked around your opening hours, evenings and weekends included.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids

What else we do in Aaron's Hill
What staff can safely do
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Questions from Aaron's Hill
Can a school kitchen in Aaron's Hill be done out of term time?
Yes, out-of-term visits are normal for schools. With about 7 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Aaron's Hill, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we’ll fit the work in.
Which council inspects kitchens in Aaron's Hill?
The local authority for Aaron's Hill is Waverley council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with photos after every visit, showing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Which grease traps does the service cover?
We clean under-sink traps, inline traps and interceptors. Let us know what’s fitted and we will plan around it.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
Trap size, type, condition and access all affect the price. Send us details or a photo and we’ll come back with a fixed price.
What happens to the waste?
We take it away at the end of the visit. During the work, it’s contained so the area stays clean.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.
Do you take the waste away?
We take it away. There’s nothing left for your team to deal with once the clean is done.
What we’re called out for in Aaron's Hill
Waste cooking oil poured down the sink fills a grease trap far faster than washing-up. Even small amounts add up.
These are the problems we see most often:
- Sinks that drain slowly
- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
- An overdue grease trap
School kitchens, at schools like St Mark and All Saints Church of England Primary for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.
