How we handle grease trap cleaning in Boundstone
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles, and check the trap is working properly. Common call-outs are for a small trap that fills too quickly and a slow-draining kitchen sink, on inline grease traps, pot wash sinks and under-sink grease traps.
In a smaller place like Boundstone, commercial kitchens are more likely to be a pub, a café, a takeaway or a school or care home kitchen. A smaller kitchen still builds up grease where everyday cleaning does not reach.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Common questions in Boundstone
Do you work overnight in Boundstone?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Boundstone needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you work in school kitchens around Boundstone out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. With about 6 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Boundstone, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
What types of premises do you cover?
Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, as well as food production and leisure sites.
What do you do with the waste?
We remove all the waste we take out. It isn’t poured back down the drain at any point.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Plans on a 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycle are available, depending on what the system needs.
Which accreditations do you hold?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Is Boundstone in your area?
Yes. Boundstone is part of the area we cover, within the South East and London area we cover.
What grease trap cleaning looks like in Boundstone
There are about 12 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Boundstone, according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer. In Boundstone, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Waverley council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Farnham Castle is about 2 miles north), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning. If you look after a hall kitchen near St Timothy or anywhere in Boundstone, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

How the job changes from site to site
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
We time visits to avoid service so the kitchen isn’t disrupted.
School, care home and staff kitchens
In schools, grease traps can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed or after lunch service.
The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. Most of the time goes on the work itself, which takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. In a smaller place like Boundstone, parking is rarely the issue, but tell us about gates, roof access and opening hours.
- We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
- Nothing drains into the trap while it’s open.
- Built-up fat, oil and grease is removed from the trap.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Clear the space around the work
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Ask for a quote
Some systems can be priced from photos; others need a survey. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in pictures, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

For landlords and multi-site operators
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Keep strainers in every sink
Scrape plates into the bin before washing up. Use strainers in the sink plugholes before they reach the trap.
A trap that’s left too long stops catching grease. Regular emptying keeps it working and avoids a blockage.
Do you need grease trap cleaning in Boundstone?
Food waste slips past sink strainers or gets rinsed down. Solids settle at the bottom of the trap and fill it from below.
Signs it’s time to call us include:
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- Foul odours from the grease trap
- Sinks that drain slowly
- An overdue grease trap
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as St Peter's CofE Primary School or anywhere near Boundstone, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.
