Grease trap cleaning in Brookwood
We clean grease traps for kitchens in Brookwood, from small under-sink units to inline traps and interceptors. We come when the sinks aren’t needed so washing up is not interrupted. The work covers pot wash sinks, kitchen waste pipes and restaurants and takeaways, and common reasons people get in touch are a regular cleaning plan for the grease trap and sinks that drain slowly.
For a kitchen in or near Brookwood, 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.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

Aftercare tips
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
You’ll get our view on how often the trap needs cleaning. That depends on how quickly it filled and how much the kitchen cooks.
Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Once it’s there, it needs a drainage contractor to clear so prevention is the easier route.
How the job changes from site to site
Grease interceptors
A larger unit takes more time to empty and clean and we plan the visit accordingly.
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
Visits are booked when the sinks aren’t in use so the kitchen isn’t disrupted.
How the visit works
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that is an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Brookwood, let us know and we’ll plan around it.
- We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
Get a fixed quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Common questions in Brookwood
Is Brookwood within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can you work in Brookwood outside opening hours?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The work in Brookwood can fit around your hours. When you call us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
No two traps are quite the same, so we price each one individually. We give you a fixed price, usually within one working day.
What happens if a grease trap is not cleaned?
An overfull trap stops separating grease. Slow drains, bad smells and blockages follow.
Do you look at the system first?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
Which records should we keep?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
We clean under-sink traps, inline traps and interceptors. Tell us what you have and we will plan the visit.
How we price grease trap cleaning
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The number of sites or systems
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Where the site is and how we reach it
One small site or a whole estate, we price it on the same basis: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The postcode and the type of business
- Problems your staff have spotted
- A few general shots of the system
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
When to call us in Brookwood
A full trap can’t hold any more grease. It then builds up in the drains and on towards the sewer, where it can cause blockages.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- Washing-up water that won’t drain away
- Drains clogged with fat
- A full, neglected grease trap
- Foul odours from the grease trap
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Brookwood (the nearest hospital is Brookwood Hospital, about 1.1 miles north-east), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.
