About our grease trap cleaning in Broadford
For kitchens across Broadford, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. If you’re dealing with drains clogged with fat and a small trap that fills too quickly, we can help, from pot wash sinks, under-sink grease traps and school and care home kitchens onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Broadford, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
We have been trading since 2009, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

How the visit works
The first job on site is protection: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. After that, the system is made safe and the work begins. It takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap, and we clear up before we go. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Broadford.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
- The inside, baffles and outlet are cleaned.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
How to prepare
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Advice
What affects the quote in Broadford
Sites vary more than people expect. What affects the quote:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The number of sites or systems
- Parking and loading at the site
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
What we need to know
When you call or email, these details help:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
If you need grease trap cleaning in Broadford, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send photos or your last report if you can. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.
Looking after it afterwards
How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
You’ll get our view on how often the trap needs cleaning. It’s based on how full it was and how much the kitchen cooks.
More cooking means more grease in the trap. Booking cleans more often keeps the drains flowing.

Leave it or put it right?
Wherever the kitchen is in Broadford, backed-up drains stop it working. Water will not drain away, and dirty water can back up. Cleaning the grease trap on time helps prevent it. A planned visit to Broadford is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Broadford
Is Broadford within the area you cover?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Broadford included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which environmental health team covers Broadford?
In Broadford, it’s Guildford council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Do I get a report after the visit?
Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with pictures, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t legislation, but it’s the standard people check against.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. BESA’s minimum intervals for kitchen extracts range from 3-monthly for heavy use to 12-monthly for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.

When to call us in Broadford
A busy kitchen in Broadford, or anywhere else, fills its grease trap faster. Traps sized for lighter use can struggle when cooking increases.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Foul odours from the grease trap
- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
- A routine grease trap service
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
If you run a kitchen near Shalford station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap.
What your quote should include
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
- Whether they recommend a next date

Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Kitchens in Broadford get their food hygiene inspections from Guildford council.

When it’s something else
An honest diagnosis matters more to us than a booking, so here’s what grease trap cleaning won’t do:
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- A grease trap that’s too small for the kitchen
