Commercial kitchens in Bridgemary
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 34 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 26 takeaways in Bridgemary and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer. Kitchens in Bridgemary get their food hygiene inspections from Gosport council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Gosport War Memorial Hospital (about 2.1 miles south-east), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Rowner Junior for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

Grease trap cleaning in Bridgemary, done properly
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles and the trap checked before we leave. If you have gurgling from the sink waste and sinks that drain slowly, we can put it right.
For a kitchen near Bridgemary, deep cleans are booked around opening hours, often on a closed day, and the journey is planned ahead.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. A site near Bridgemary typically has room to park, so the questions are about access to the system and your hours.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.
Preparing for the visit
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions

Advice
Questions from Bridgemary
Which council inspects kitchens in Bridgemary?
In Bridgemary, it’s Gosport council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you cover smaller places like Bridgemary?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Bridgemary included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on what we found and how the system is used.
How long does a grease trap clean take?
A typical clean takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap, including testing. We plan the visit around your service.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your pictures and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
What about areas you cannot get to?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- The number of sites or systems
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- The times the site is available
- How big the system is
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
Helping us quote
To speed up the quote, send us:
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- A few general shots of the system
Here’s what helps us quote: where the site is, what it is and its opening hours, a few pictures and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Then give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Aftercare tips
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
You will get our view on how often the trap needs cleaning. That depends on how quickly it filled and how much the kitchen cooks.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage later.

What happens if it’s left?
Grease that leaves the kitchen ends up somewhere. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. You choose the date of a planned visit, and a breakdown never asks.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

Common problems we fix in Bridgemary
Oil tipped down the drain instead of being collected overloads the trap fast. Small amounts soon build up.
Any of these means the system needs a check-up:
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
- An overdue grease trap
- An interceptor full of grease and solids
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
Where a church or community hall near St Matthew's, or anywhere in Bridgemary, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.
Before you book anyone
- How they set the interval to the next visit
- Their accreditations, such as BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite, CHAS or SafeContractor
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- Whether inaccessible sections are listed on the report
Multi-site and managed buildings
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.
