How long does a grease trap clean take?
Most grease trap cleans take a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor, including testing. It’s booked when the sinks aren’t needed.
What happens on the day
Night work is normal for us. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so the site can open as normal afterwards. The visit itself takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. In a place like Bursledon, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- Every part of the trap is scraped and cleaned, including the baffles.
- Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.

Do you need grease trap cleaning in Bursledon?
For a kitchen in Bursledon or anywhere else, the trap is out of sight and out of mind. Tucked away under the sink or below the floor, it’s often ignored until something goes wrong.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- Drains clogged with fat
- Gurgling drains in the kitchen
- An overdue grease trap
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
Hall and church kitchens, near St Paul’s Church or anywhere around Bursledon, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order.

When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we will tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
- A grease trap that’s too small for the kitchen
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will tell you honestly.
Parts of the system we cover
- School and care home kitchens
- Inline grease traps
- Pot wash sinks
- Kitchen waste pipes
- Under-sink grease traps
- Restaurants and takeaways
Keeping the system healthy
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Let us know if the kitchen gets busier
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Keep strainers in every sink
Anything we notice beyond the trap, like a slow drain downstream, is pointed out. That may need a drainage contractor to investigate.
If the kitchen has got busier, the trap fills faster. Shortening the cleaning interval now keeps the drains flowing.
