About our grease trap cleaning in Donkey Town
Kitchens in Donkey Town use us for grease trap cleaning, whether it’s an under-sink unit or a larger inline trap. Visits are booked around your service, so the kitchen keeps running. If you are dealing with a bad smell from the sinks or drains and a regular cleaning plan for the grease trap, we can help.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.

How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Donkey Town before we set off.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
How to get a quote
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos and details you send or from a site visit. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

What staff can safely do
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’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
When to call us in Donkey Town
Food scraps go down the sink with the washing-up water. It settles in the trap as solids and fill it from below.
Most sites get in touch when they notice one of these:
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
- Gurgling from the sink waste
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Gordon's School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Environmental health officers from Surrey Heath council inspect food businesses in Donkey Town. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.

What else we do in Donkey Town
Between visits
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
- Keep access to the trap clear
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
We will suggest when the trap should be cleaned again. That depends on how quickly it filled and how much the kitchen cooks.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
What a clean will not put right
In fairness, some problems need a different fix:
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
- Drains that are cracked or have collapsed
- A trap undersized for the amount of cooking
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.
