Common questions in Dorney Reach

Can the work in Dorney Reach be done at night or at weekends?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Dorney Reach doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Dorney Reach?

In Dorney Reach, it’s Buckinghamshire council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.

Who has the legal duty for fire safety?

That depends on who controls the premises. The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty on the responsible person, which can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, an FM or a managing agent.

Do you work in Dorney Reach?

Yes. We work across Greater London, Surrey, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, the Isle of Wight, Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire and Essex, and that includes Dorney Reach.

What do you do to protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.

Does the law say we must follow TR19?

No, not in itself. TR19® is the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs check against, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The law behind it is the Fire Safety Order 2005 in England and Wales.

Can you clear our blocked drains as well?

Cleaning the trap deals with the grease it holds and that may solve a slow drain caused by the trap. A blockage deeper in the drains needs a drainage specialist.

Can you look after several sites?

Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Dorney Reach

If the sinks drain slowly or smell, the trap is often the cause. In Dorney Reach, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap, then check the water flows properly. Typical jobs include scheduled grease trap emptying and a small trap that fills too quickly, on restaurants and takeaways, school and care home kitchens and kitchen waste pipes.

For a kitchen in or near Dorney Reach, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey.

Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

When to call us in Dorney Reach

Food scraps go down the sink with the washing-up water. Solids settle at the bottom of the trap and fill it from below.

What we are most often called out for:

  • A larger grease trap that needs emptying
  • An under-sink unit that needs regular emptying
  • A routine grease trap service
  • Grease setting in the kitchen pipework

Hall kitchens near Church of St James or elsewhere in Dorney Reach may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

What happens on the day

There’s very little for your team to do 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. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Dorney Reach and turn up when the site is quiet.

  1. We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
  2. We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
  3. Built-up fat, oil and grease is removed from the trap.
  4. Every part of the trap is scraped and cleaned, including the baffles.
  5. The trap is reassembled, checked for leaks and the waste taken away.

Before we arrive

  • Agree a time when the area can be out of use
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Tell us where we can park and unload

Getting a quote

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Advice

Keeping the system healthy

How long the results last depends on use and care. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Tell us if your menu or hours change
  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Keep access to the trap clear
  • Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps

The sinks are ready to use as soon as we have finished. Water is run through to check everything flows before we leave.

A trap that is left too long stops catching grease. Regular emptying keeps it working and avoids a blockage.

What staff can safely do

Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they can’t safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, and that is where we come in.

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’s our job.

Why deal with it now?

Smells from a neglected trap are hard to ignore. Rotting food and grease give off foul odours and the smell carries. Cleaning it removes the cause. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before work begins.

  • Work around your opening hours, with 24/7 emergency cover
  • A single point of contact for sites across the South East and London
  • CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, with ISO 9001

Grease trap cleaning around Dorney Reach
