Grease trap cleaning in Aldington Frith
A grease trap is the kitchen drain’s first line of protection. When it’s looked after, you hardly know it’s there, but neglected, it causes blockages and smells. Routine cleaning keeps it in good working order. If you have a larger grease trap that needs emptying and a bad smell from the sinks or drains, we can help.
Somewhere as small as Aldington Frith, the kitchens that need a deep clean are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Some jobs should never be done in-house: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer.

What else we do in Aldington Frith
The process
Your trading hours come first. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the job takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Aldington Frith and turn up when the site is quiet.
- First, we locate the grease trap and look at the pipework around it.
- The sinks feeding the trap are kept out of use while we work.
- The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

FAQs for Aldington Frith

Yes. Aldington Frith is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can you come to Aldington Frith after we close?

Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Which grease traps does the service cover?
Under-sink units, inline traps and interceptors are all covered. Tell us what you have and we will plan around it.
How much does grease trap cleaning cost?
It depends on the type and size of the trap, its condition and access. Tell us about the trap and we’ll come back with a fixed price.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
A typical clean takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit including checking it drains. We plan the visit around your service.
Can you clear our blocked drains as well?
We clean the trap, not the drain network. Where the problem is further down the drain, we will say so so you can call a drainage contractor.
What happens if a grease trap is not cleaned?
A full trap cannot catch any more grease. The grease hardens in the pipes, leading to blocked drains and smells, and can add to fatbergs in the sewer.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
