How the visit works
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and it goes on the report too. All told, the work takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. The timing of a visit to Ditton is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
Before we arrive

- Find the previous report, if there is one

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Ditton
Every trap is different. Under-sink units are small and fill quickly, while inline traps and interceptors hold more. We look at the trap, how much the kitchen uses it and how quickly it fills before suggesting how often it needs cleaning. Typical jobs include a routine grease trap service and grease setting in the kitchen pipework, on under-sink grease traps, restaurants and takeaways and kitchen waste pipes.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Each visit ends with a written report and pictures, so you have a record of what was done and when. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What we’re called out for in Ditton
In Ditton, as everywhere, grease traps are easy to forget. Tucked away under the sink or below the floor it’s often left until there’s a problem.
Most sites get in touch when they notice something like this:
- Washing-up water that will not drain away
- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
- A small trap that fills too quickly
- A kitchen drain that smells
Upton Hospital, about 1.5 miles north-west, is the nearest hospital to Ditton; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

Looking after it afterwards
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Hot water only moves grease further down
We take the grease and solids away. There’s no greasy waste left on site after the visit.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: the system surveyed, the price fixed, the visit fitted around trading and everything written up afterwards.
Commercial kitchens in Ditton
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 7 pubs and bars and about 8 hotels and B&Bs within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Ditton. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. It’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Ditton. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
For busy kitchens close to Datchet station, deep cleans and grease trap work can be done after closing. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Castleview Primary School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

How we price grease trap cleaning
The price is fixed before any work begins. It takes into account:
- The scale of the work
- The times the site is available
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- What state the system is in
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Any previous report or certificate

Common questions in Ditton
Can you get to a site in Ditton?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Ditton included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Can the work in Ditton be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Ditton needn’t be disturbed. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, and we can fit those.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes, on every job. It’s a dated, written report with photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
What does TR19 mean?
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.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, set at the interval the system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Does the law say we must follow TR19?
No. TR19® itself isn’t law; it’s a BESA specification. The law is the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which makes the responsible person assess and reduce fire risk, and cleaning to TR19® is the recognised way to show grease is under control.

Baffles and outlets
The outlet carries the separated water on to the drain. A blocked outlet stops the trap working.
Grease interceptors
Interceptors take longer to clean and we plan the visit accordingly.
When something else is needed
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so these are the things it won’t cover:
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- A leaking sink waste or trap connection
- A unit that can’t cope with the kitchen’s output
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will say what we think before booking.
