About our grease trap cleaning in Burridge

A grease trap is the kitchen drain’s first line of protection. Kept clean, it does its job quietly but left too long, it causes trouble. Routine cleaning keeps it in good working order. If you are dealing with an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and washing-up water that won’t drain away, we can help.

For a kitchen in or near Burridge, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey.

Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers

Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept to a regular schedule.

Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

How the visit works

We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. For a village or hamlet like Burridge, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.

  1. First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
  2. Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
  3. We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
  4. We clean every part of the inside.
  5. The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

Before we arrive

  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Getting a quote

Quotes are quick. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.

What we’re called out for in Burridge

Oil tipped down the drain instead of being collected fills a grease trap far faster than washing-up. Even small amounts add up.

The symptoms we’re asked about most include:

  • Sinks that drain slowly
  • A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
  • A full, neglected grease trap
  • Gurgling drains in the kitchen

For schools such as Whiteley Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are normally booked for the holidays.

Questions from Burridge

Do you work overnight in Burridge?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Burridge does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we will book within them.

Do you work in school kitchens around Burridge out of term?

Yes, holiday work suits schools best. The FSA’s register shows about 6 schools and colleges with food registrations within roughly a mile and a half of Burridge. You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the dates the site is empty.

How often should a grease trap be cleaned?

The right interval depends on your trap and your cooking. Slow or smelly sinks between cleans mean it needs doing more often, and we can shorten it.

What if parts of the system can’t be reached?

We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.

Is Burridge in your area?

Yes. Our technicians work in Burridge, as part of our area across London and the South East.

What accreditations do you have?

Duct Doctor is a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we carry full insurance.

Will I get paperwork for my records?

Yes. Every visit ends with a written report and pictures, showing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, there’s also a certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Can you give me a price for grease trap cleaning?

The price depends on the trap and the schedule. Get in touch and we’ll give you a fixed quote so you know the cost up front.

When something else is needed

We won’t sell you work that does not address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:

  • Grease set hard in the drain run
  • Sewer problems outside the premises
  • Plumbing leaks around the sink

Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will tell you honestly before you book.

What the work covers

  • Under-sink grease traps
  • Restaurants and takeaways
  • Pot wash sinks
  • Kitchen waste pipes
  • School and care home kitchens
  • Inline grease traps

Why act early in Burridge

Pests are drawn to grease and food waste. Keeping the trap clean removes something they’re looking for as part of a clean kitchen. With notice, the visit to Burridge can be fitted around your bookings and events.

Putting the work off seldom saves money. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you are not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Why book with us

  • We are fully insured
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
  • Survey first, then a fixed quote

Between visits

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
  • Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
  • Wipe grease off pans before washing them

Once the trap is cleaned and refitted, the sinks can be used straight away. We run water through to check it drains before we leave.

More cooking means more grease in the trap. Shortening the cleaning interval now stops it overflowing.

What affects the quote in Burridge

The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:

  • Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
  • What state the system is in
  • The size of the system
  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits

We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will explain what it covers.

What to send for a quote

Before you ask for a quote, gather:

  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.

Burridge kitchens: local notes

There are about 44 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 13 takeaways across Burridge and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. Wherever they wash pans and plates, fat heads for the drain unless a trap catches it. In Burridge, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Fareham council. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.

Fareham Community Hospital, about 1.4 miles south-west, is the nearest hospital to Burridge; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.
