Part by part
School, care home and staff kitchens
In schools, grease traps can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed or between meal services.
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They’re larger than under-sink traps but still need regular emptying.
Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Corhampton
Once a trap is full, grease passes straight through. Further down the pipe, the grease cools and hardens and the result is blocked drains and bad smells. Regular cleaning keeps it working. We are often asked to deal with an interceptor full of grease and solids and a kitchen drain that smells, across inline grease traps, school and care home kitchens and under-sink grease traps.
For a kitchen in or near Corhampton, 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.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we are fully insured.

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Broken pipework below ground
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber

Commercial kitchens in Corhampton

A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned. About 57 miles out from central London, Corhampton is part of the South East area we work across. Visits are booked around your hours, evenings and weekends included.
Historic houses such as Hinton Ampner House (about 4.4 miles north) are part of the area around Corhampton, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Meonstoke Church of England Infant School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

Do you need grease trap cleaning in Corhampton?
Every pan and plate washed sends grease towards the drain. They cool and float to the top of the trap, and the layer gets thicker day by day.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning
- An overdue grease trap
- A slow-draining kitchen sink
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
If you look after a hall kitchen near Corhampton Church or anywhere in Corhampton, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Advice
Questions from Corhampton
Can you get to a site in Corhampton?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Corhampton is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Can you work in school kitchens in Corhampton during the holidays?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Food Standards Agency records list about 2 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Corhampton. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do the sinks have to be out of use during the clean?
Just the sinks that drain into the trap, and only while we work. Visits are booked outside your busiest hours where we can.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
How do you protect the area?
With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. We always survey first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. Then you get a fixed quote.
How regularly does a grease trap need emptying?
It varies. We look at how full the trap is and how quickly it fills and we will advise on timing.
Are you accredited?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Keeping the system healthy
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Do not store things on top of the trap
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
We take the grease and solids away. Nothing is left for you to dispose of after the visit.
More cooking means more grease in the trap. Shortening the cleaning interval now keeps the drains flowing.
