Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
The sinks are ready to use as soon as we’ve finished. Water is run through to check everything flows before we leave.
An overfull trap lets grease pass. Regular emptying keeps it working and avoids a blockage.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Badger Farm
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We’re happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
How the visit works
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so the site can open as normal afterwards. On site, the work takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. Around Badger Farm, access is usually simpler than in a town centre, though gates and roof access are worth mentioning.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- We open the trap and look at its condition.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Getting a quote
Some systems can be priced from pictures; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Badger Farm
Which council inspects kitchens in Badger Farm?
In Badger Farm, it’s Winchester City council that carries out food hygiene inspections. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Can you work in school kitchens in Badger Farm during the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. The FSA’s register shows about 15 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Badger Farm. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
Each trap is a little different, but a clean generally takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. We’ll confirm when we quote.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
We clean the trap, not the drain network. If the drain beyond the trap is blocked or damaged, we’ll tell you and suggest a drainage contractor.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
The price depends on the trap and the schedule. Get in touch and we’ll send you a fixed quote before any work starts.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. You deal with one contact for every site across London and the South East, and visits can be set on a regular cycle.
What should go in our maintenance log?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Do you take the waste away?
The fat, oil, grease and solids we remove go with us. It isn’t poured back down the drain at any point.
Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Badger Farm
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- The scale of the work
- The condition of the system
- Travel, parking and unloading
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
The more you tell us, the more accurate the quote. With your enquiry, please include:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The site address and the type of premises
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will typically have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

Part by part
Baffles and outlets
The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. Grease clings to them so they’re cleaned every time.
Grease interceptors
Grease interceptors are larger units that serve busier kitchens. With more capacity, they fill more slowly, but they still need regular emptying and cleaning.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Badger Farm kitchens: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 5 food manufacturers and packers within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Badger Farm. Food production can send a lot of fat, oil and grease towards the drains, so traps and interceptors need emptying on a schedule. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Badger Farm. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Where a church or community hall near Saint Luke, or anywhere in Badger Farm, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Royal Hampshire County Hospital (about 1 mile north), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals. School kitchens, at schools like Stanmore Primary School for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.
