Grease trap cleaning in Broomer's Corner
Smells from the sink, gurgling drains or slow drainage all point to the grease trap. In Broomer's Corner, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap and run water through to check it drains. If you have a routine grease trap service and a grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time, we can help, from pot wash sinks, school and care home kitchens and under-sink grease traps onwards.
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.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Broomer's Corner: your questions answered
Can you come to Broomer's Corner after we close?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The work in Broomer's Corner can fit around your hours. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, mention when the site is quiet.
Can you get to a site in Broomer's Corner?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
Under-sink and inline grease traps, and larger interceptors. They’re emptied, cleaned and checked in the same careful way.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not usually. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages so parts stay in use.
How do you protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and leave the area clean.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What’s the right interval for grease trap cleaning?
It varies with the trap and the kitchen. Slow or smelly sinks between cleans mean it needs doing more often, and we can shorten it.
What we’re called out for in Broomer's Corner
In Broomer's Corner, as everywhere, grease traps are easy to forget. Hidden under a sink or in a floor it’s often left until there’s a problem.
Clients typically contact us when they notice something like this:
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
- Sinks that drain slowly
- An overdue grease trap
Hall kitchens near St Mary's Mission Church or elsewhere in Broomer's Corner may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Broomer's Corner
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
What the work involves, part by part
Grease interceptors
Interceptors separate grease the same way, on a larger scale. Grease floats and solids sink.
Under-sink grease traps
Small grease traps sit under the sink. They fill quickly and need regular cleaning.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Why deal with it now?
In Broomer's Corner, as anywhere, grease trap cleaning is a short, routine visit. Waiting for a blockage turns it into an urgent problem and normally at the worst moment. Equipment tucked in a roof space or outbuilding near Broomer's Corner rarely gets looked at unless someone books it.
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

What else we do in Broomer's Corner
Keeping the system healthy
Once we’ve finished, these simple steps help:
- Hot water only moves grease further down
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Mention any increase in cooking
The waste we remove leaves with us. Nothing is left for you to dispose of after the visit.
If the kitchen has got busier, the trap fills faster. Shortening the cleaning interval now stops it overflowing.
The process
We turn up at the time agreed with you, which is often after service, overnight or at a weekend. Anything that needs to be off for the work is switched off and left to cool first, and floors and nearby surfaces are sheeted. The work itself 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 Broomer's Corner, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We agree a time when the sinks are not needed.
- We open the trap and look at its condition.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
How to prepare
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Getting a quote
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
