Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we can quote for the whole system.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Kent. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Grease trap cleaning in Bromley Green
Grease traps sit between the sinks and the drain, holding back fats, oils and grease. As the waste water cools, the grease floats and stays in the trap while the water carries on to the drain. Over time, the trap fills up and needs emptying and cleaning. Common call-outs are for an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and a grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time, across school and care home kitchens, under-sink grease traps and restaurants and takeaways.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Common questions in Bromley Green
Do you work overnight in Bromley Green?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Bromley Green does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Is Bromley Green within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Bromley Green is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. The law sets the duty, and TR19® is the recognised benchmark for meeting it. Under the Fire Safety Order 2005, the responsible person must reduce fire risk, and many insurers can refuse or reduce a claim without proof of cleaning.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. Every visit ends with a written report and photos, covering the work, any areas we couldn’t access and the recommended next date. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, there’s also a certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
How far ahead should we book?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Why does a grease trap need regular cleaning?
A full trap can’t catch any more grease. The grease hardens in the pipes, leading to blocked drains and smells, and can add to fatbergs in the sewer.
Are you insured?
Yes, fully. CHAS and SafeContractor accreditation sit alongside it for clients who vet their contractors.
What we do, step by step
We’re used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Bromley Green and turn up when the site is quiet.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- We open the trap and look at its condition.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- The inside, baffles and outlet are cleaned.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Advice
Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
- Keep access to the trap clear
- Do not wait for a blockage to book a clean
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
The sinks are ready to use as soon as we’ve finished. Water is run through to check everything flows before we go.
Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Clearing it then is a bigger job so prevention is the easier route.
Bromley Green kitchens: local notes
Bromley Green is about 50 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. In Bromley Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Ashford council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; William Harvey Hospital, about 4.1 miles north-east, is the nearest hospital to Bromley Green. If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Godinton House is about 4.5 miles north), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning.

Leave it or put it right?
For a kitchen in Bromley Green, a regular grease trap clean is a small, planned job. Waiting for a blockage turns it into an urgent problem, often at a busy time. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are compact units fitted below the kitchen sink. They fill quickly, so they need frequent emptying.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. We fit visits around mealtimes.

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