Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Brockham
Smells from the sink, gurgling drains or slow drainage all point to the grease trap. In Brockham, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap, then check the water flows properly. The work covers under-sink grease traps, inline grease traps and restaurants and takeaways, and the jobs we see most are drains that gurgle and bubble and foul odours from the grease trap.
Somewhere as small as Brockham, the kitchens that need a deep clean are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

FAQs for Brockham
Who inspects food businesses in Brockham?
Food hygiene inspections in Brockham are carried out by Mole Valley council. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Do you work in villages like Brockham?
Yes, Brockham is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
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. None of it is left on site.
What if parts of the system can’t be reached?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
We price it once we know the trap and how often it needs cleaning. Just call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will quote before any work starts.
How do you protect the area?
Floors and surfaces near the work are sheeted before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them together and easy to find.
Keeping the system healthy
How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
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.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
When to call us in Brockham
Waste cooking oil poured down the sink fills a grease trap far faster than washing-up. Small amounts soon build up.
What we’re most often called out for:
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- A small trap that fills too quickly
- Drains that gurgle and bubble
- Drains clogged with fat
If you run a kitchen in an older building near Brockham, such as a historic house like Polesden Lacey (about 4.2 miles west), older drains make a working grease trap all the more important.
What your quote should include
- Proof of accreditation you can verify
- How areas they can’t reach will be recorded
- Proof of insurance
- Whether a written report and pictures are included

How the visit works
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, which takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. The timing of a visit to Brockham is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us where we can park and unload
How to get a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
