Grease trap cleaning near Crampmoor

Multi-site and managed buildings

Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we can quote for the whole system.

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Crampmoor

Grease traps sit between the sinks and the drain, holding back fats, oils and grease. Cooling water lets the grease rise and separate, and clean water flows on. Eventually it fills and needs emptying and cleaning. Common call-outs are for drains clogged with fat and an inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning, across pot wash sinks, restaurants and takeaways and under-sink grease traps.

In a village or hamlet like Crampmoor, 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.

The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Looking after it afterwards

How long the results last depends on use and care. We suggest:

  • Wipe grease off pans before washing them
  • Keep access to the trap clear
  • Do not wait for a blockage to book a clean
  • Keep strainers in every sink

If we spot problems beyond the trap, such as a drain that still runs slowly, we will tell you. It may need a drainage specialist to investigate.

A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.

How the visit works

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. After that, the work takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Crampmoor.

  1. A visit is booked around your service.
  2. The trap is opened up and checked.
  3. We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
  4. We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
  5. The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us where we can park and unload
  • Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Common problems we fix in Crampmoor

In Crampmoor, as everywhere, grease traps are easy to forget. Tucked away under the sink or below the floor, it’s often ignored until something goes wrong.

If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:

  • Drains that gurgle and bubble
  • A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
  • A bad smell from the sinks or drains
  • An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning

Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Romsey Community Hospital, about 1.4 miles south-west, is the nearest hospital to Crampmoor.

Before you book anyone

  • Whether a survey comes first
  • Exactly which parts of the system are covered
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed

Grease trap cleaning around Crampmoor

The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 6 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens and about 5 takeaways and sandwich shops in and around Crampmoor, up to about a mile and a half out. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
