Grease trap cleaning in Bramshott Chase

What happens if it’s left?

Wherever the kitchen is in Bramshott Chase, backed-up drains stop it working. Water won’t drain away and waste water can come back up. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk. Planning a trip to Bramshott Chase ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.

You won’t find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll talk you through it.

Grease trap cleaning in Bramshott Chase, done properly

Grease is behind most blocked kitchen drains. Down the line, they can add to fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. Common call-outs are for a routine grease trap service and an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying, on inline grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and pot wash sinks.

Work in a small place like Bramshott Chase starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.

The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, 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.

Questions from Bramshott Chase

Can you work in Bramshott Chase outside opening hours?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Bramshott Chase needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you work in villages like Bramshott Chase?

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Bramshott Chase included. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.

What types of grease trap do you clean?

Both under-sink and inline traps, plus interceptors. If you are not sure what you have, send us a photo and we will confirm.

What do you do to protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

Do you take the waste away?

We remove all the waste we take out. None of it goes back into the drains, of course.

How much does grease trap cleaning cost?

No two traps are quite the same, so we quote once we know what you have. We give you a fixed price, usually within one working day.

Do you survey before quoting?

Yes, always. Diagnosis comes before treatment: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need, and the quote is based on that.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.

When to call us in Bramshott Chase

Food waste slips past sink strainers or gets rinsed down. It settles in the trap as solids and fill it from below.

The symptoms we’re asked about most are:

  • Gurgling from the sink waste
  • An under-sink unit that needs regular emptying
  • A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
  • Sinks that drain slowly

A summer deep clean suits schools such as Woolmer Hill School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

What to look for in a quote

  • Whether a written report and pictures are included
  • Whether a survey comes first
  • How they set the interval to the next visit
  • Proof of accreditation you can verify

Our hiring checklist

When something else is needed

An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what grease trap cleaning won’t do:

  • Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
  • Blockages further down the drainage network
  • Plumbing leaks around the sink

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

What we work on in Bramshott Chase

  • Kitchen waste pipes
  • Pot wash sinks
  • Inline grease traps
  • School and care home kitchens
  • Under-sink grease traps
  • Restaurants and takeaways

Between visits

A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. Our advice:

  • Keep strainers in every sink
  • Hot water only moves grease further down
  • Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
  • Do not store things on top of the trap

We will suggest when the trap should be cleaned again. That depends on how quickly it filled and how busy the kitchen is.

If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Acting at this stage normally prevents a blockage later.

Part by part

Under-sink grease traps

Under-sink units are easy to forget. A full one shows itself with a slow, smelly sink.

School, care home and staff kitchens

School kitchens can be cleaned in the holidays or between meal services.

The process

Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor, and we clear up before we go. Somewhere as small as Bramshott Chase, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.

  1. We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
  2. Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
  3. Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
  4. We clean every part of the inside.
  5. The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

Advice

What staff can safely do

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
