Our grease trap cleaning service in Buckinghamshire
A neglected grease trap stops doing its job. Further down the pipe, the grease cools and hardens and the result is blocked drains and bad smells. A trap that is cleaned regularly keeps grease where it belongs. Common call-outs are for a slow-draining kitchen sink and drains clogged with fat, across under-sink grease traps, pot wash sinks and school and care home kitchens.
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit, and we clear up before we go.
- We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

Grease trap cleaning across Buckinghamshire: local notes
In Buckinghamshire, we work in places such as Aylesbury, High Wycombe and Chesham and the smaller places around them. We cover every place we list for Buckinghamshire, 263 in all.
Much of our work across London and the South East happens in the evening, overnight or at weekends, so sites across Buckinghamshire do not have to lose a day.
Aylesbury: If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Mary or elsewhere in Aylesbury, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Buckinghamshire UTC for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- Travel, parking and unloading
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Helping us quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Any previous report or certificate
- A few general shots of the system
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Between visits
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
Collect waste cooking oil separately rather than pouring it down the sink, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It’s the single easiest way to help.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. We agree the timing with you.
What we’re called out for in Buckinghamshire
In Buckinghamshire, as everywhere, grease traps are easy to forget. Hidden under a sink or in a floor it’s often left until there’s a problem.
Look out for any of the following:
- A kitchen drain that smells
- Sinks that drain slowly
- Drains clogged with fat
- An overdue grease trap
Different parts, different methods
School, care home and staff kitchens
In schools, grease traps can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed or after lunch service.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are cleaned in a short visit and check the seal on the lid.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
FAQs for Buckinghamshire
What types of grease trap do you clean?
We clean all the common types. If you’re not sure what you have, send us a photo when you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Photos often do the job, and larger or hidden systems get a visit.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
A typical clean takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor, including testing. We plan the visit around your service.
What about areas you can’t get to?
Anything we can’t reach goes on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
How often should a grease trap be cleaned?
It varies with the trap and the kitchen. Slow or smelly sinks between cleans mean it needs doing more often and we will adjust the schedule.
