Questions from Durfold Wood
Who inspects food businesses in Durfold Wood?
Food hygiene inspections in Durfold Wood are carried out by Chichester council. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you work at weekends in Durfold Wood?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Durfold Wood keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. Our emergency line runs 24/7 for anything that cannot wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits to keep things running.
Will cleaning the grease trap fix a blocked drain?
A trap clean removes the grease in the trap and that may solve a slow drain caused by the trap. A blockage deeper in the drains needs a drainage specialist.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
Every trap is different, so we price each one individually. You get a fixed quote, usually within one working day.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
About our grease trap cleaning in Durfold Wood
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Down the line, they can add to fatbergs in the sewer. A well-maintained trap holds them back. Typical jobs include gurgling from the sink waste and a bad smell from the sinks or drains, across under-sink grease traps, school and care home kitchens and restaurants and takeaways.
Work in a small place like Durfold Wood starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. Each visit is written up with pictures, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

When to call us in Durfold Wood
If a trap is not emptied, grease passes straight through. It goes on into the drain and the sewer beyond, where it can cause blockages.
Keep an eye out for any of the following:
- An under-sink unit that needs regular emptying
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
- An overdue grease trap
- A bad smell from the sinks or drains
School kitchens, at schools like Plaistow and Kirdford Primary School for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. Here’s what we suggest:
- Never pour used oil down the sink
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Mention any increase in cooking
Anything we notice beyond the trap, like a slow drain downstream, is pointed out. It may need a drainage specialist to investigate.
If the kitchen has got busier, the trap fills faster. Shortening the cleaning interval now stops it overflowing.
How the job changes from site to site
Inline grease traps
Inline traps may be under a floor panel or in a cupboard. We ask about access when we quote.
Baffles and outlets
The outlet carries the separated water on to the drain. If it’s blocked or greasy, the trap backs up.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Durfold Wood
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We regularly work with managing agents. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
