About our grease trap cleaning in Canada

For kitchens across Canada, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It can be booked on its own or alongside other kitchen work. We are often asked to deal with foul odours from the grease trap and gurgling drains in the kitchen, across kitchen waste pipes, school and care home kitchens and restaurants and takeaways.

In a village or hamlet like Canada, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.

Duct Doctor has been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we’re fully insured.

When something else is needed

Grease trap cleaning cannot fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It won’t put right:

  • Drains that are cracked or have collapsed
  • Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
  • Sewer problems outside the premises

Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly.

Where we work

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

Aftercare tips

Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:

  • Keep access to the trap clear
  • Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
  • Keep strainers in every sink
  • Report slow or smelly sinks early

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.

Fat that escapes the trap hardens in the pipework. Clearing it then is a bigger job, so it’s far better to keep the trap clean.

When to call us in Canada

If a trap isn’t emptied, grease passes straight through. It then builds up in the drains and on towards the sewer, where it can form blockages.

Any of these means the system needs a check-up:

  • A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
  • Gurgling from the sink waste
  • A small trap that fills too quickly
  • Sinks that drain slowly

Tatchbury Mount Hospital, about 3.5 miles south-east, is the nearest hospital to Canada; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

Our hiring checklist

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.

What affects the quote in Canada

The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:

  • Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • Parking and loading at the site
  • How easy every part is to reach

A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:

  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
  • When the site is open and when it’s quiet
  • The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to

Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, you get a fixed price before any work starts.

How the visit works

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Canada.

  1. We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
  2. We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
  3. Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
  4. We clean every part of the inside.
  5. The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

Preparing for the visit

  • Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
  • Move anything stored near the system
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

How the job changes from site to site

Access to an inline trap can be in a floor or cupboard. We check how to reach it before the visit.

Under-sink grease traps

Under-sink traps are cleaned in a short visit, and check the lid and seals.

FAQs for Canada

Which environmental health team covers Canada?

That is Test Valley council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Canada. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.

Can a school kitchen in Canada be done out of term time?

Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Canada. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.

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.

How long does a grease trap clean take?

Typically, it takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. A large or very full trap takes longer and we will say so when we quote.

Are you accredited?

BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We are fully insured and have been trading since 2009.

How do you protect the area?

Protection goes down first: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. We tidy up and take our waste away before we leave.

Are you fully insured?

Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.

Do you have a 24/7 line?

Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that can’t wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.

Grease trap cleaning around Canada

The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 3 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Canada, up to about a mile and a half out. Where they run a kitchen, it needs the same deep cleaning and grease trap care as any restaurant. Environmental health officers from Test Valley council inspect food businesses in Canada. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.

Landford Manor, about 2 miles north-west, is one of the historic houses around Canada; event kitchens at places like that work in bursts, so a deep clean after a busy season helps. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Wellow School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.
