What happens if it’s left?
Wherever the kitchen is in Brambridge, backed-up drains stop it working. Sinks will not empty and waste water can come back up. Cleaning the grease trap on time helps prevent it. A fault that closes a site in a village like Brambridge affects everyone who depends on it.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Brambridge
No two traps are quite the same. Under-sink units are small and fill quickly and larger traps hold more grease before they fill. We assess the trap and how fast it fills before suggesting how often it needs cleaning. The work covers restaurants and takeaways, kitchen waste pipes and inline grease traps, and the jobs we see most are a full, neglected grease trap and gurgling drains in the kitchen.
For a kitchen in or near Brambridge, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with photos, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

For landlords and multi-site operators
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
What happens on the day
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. If anything is different, we talk it through with the person on site before carrying on. From there, it takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Brambridge and turn up when the site is quiet.
- 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.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
Before we arrive
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards

Advice
Between visits
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
If we spot problems beyond the trap, such as a drain that still runs slowly, we will tell you. It may need a drainage specialist to investigate.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- A grease trap that’s too small for the kitchen
If in doubt, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think before you book.

Grease trap cleaning around Brambridge
The FSA’s data shows about 6 pubs, bars and clubs registered in Brambridge and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever they cook, the kitchen and its drains need the same attention as a restaurant’s. Food hygiene inspections in Brambridge are the job of Winchester City council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Colden Common Primary School or anywhere near Brambridge, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean. If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (South Stoneham House is about 4.5 miles south-west), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning. If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of the Holy Trinity or elsewhere in Brambridge, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking.

What the work involves, part by part
Grease interceptors
Bigger kitchens may have a larger grease interceptor. With more capacity, they fill more slowly but they still need cleaning.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are compact units fitted below the kitchen sink. Their small size means they fill fast and need regular cleaning.

Who is responsible for fire safety on the premises?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.

We cover under-sink, inline and interceptor units. Each one is emptied, cleaned and checked in the same careful way.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What is TR19?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, while TR19® Air covers other supply and extract ductwork.
What do you do with what you remove?
Waste is contained during the work and removed when we leave, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
