Wherever they wash pans and plates, fat heads for the drain unless a trap catches it. In Cox Green, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Windsor and Maidenhead council. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Hall kitchens near All Saints' Church or elsewhere in Cox Green may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Dorney Court is about 3.2 miles east), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings.

About our grease trap cleaning in Cox Green
A grease trap is the kitchen drain’s first line of protection. When it’s looked after, you hardly know it’s there but left too long, it causes trouble. A regular clean keeps it healthy. If you are dealing with a full, neglected grease trap and sinks that drain slowly, we can help, from kitchen waste pipes, school and care home kitchens and inline grease traps onwards.
In a place like Cox Green, kitchens often sit in older buildings with older drains. Smells and slow drains are the usual warning signs.
A written report with pictures follows each visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Cox Green
Do you work in villages like Cox Green?
Yes, Cox Green is part of our area, however small the site. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can school kitchens in Cox Green be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 27 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Cox Green, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line, and we will advise on what to do next.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey tells us what the system needs and how to reach it and the fixed quote is built on it.
Which grease traps does the service cover?
We clean under-sink traps, inline traps and interceptors. Tell us what you have and we’ll plan around it.
What is TR19?
BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification, with two parts that matter most here: TR19® Grease for kitchen extracts and TR19® Air for supply and extract systems. It isn’t law, but it’s the benchmark.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Each report and certificate we give you, kept together in your maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA advises that certificates record the date, location and technician.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with photos.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
What affects the quote in Cox Green
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- A single visit or a regular plan
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
- Travel, parking and unloading
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.
Asking for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. The most useful are:
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
If you need grease trap cleaning in Cox Green, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, and send pictures or your last report if you can. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
Aftercare tips
Aftercare is simple, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
Scrape plates into the bin before washing up. Use strainers in the sink plugholes so less solid waste gets through.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage later.
What grease trap cleaning can’t fix
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Drains that are cracked or have collapsed
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- A unit that cannot cope with the kitchen’s output
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we’ll tell you honestly.
What the work covers
- Under-sink grease traps
- Inline grease traps

The process
Your staff don’t need to do much on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. In a place like Cox Green, we fit the visit around your hours.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Clear the space around the work
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
Getting a quote
For a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We usually come back within one working day.

Leave it or put it right?
A smelly, overflowing trap attracts pests. A clean trap is less of an attraction, alongside good kitchen hygiene. Light use slows the build-up but does not stop it.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.
