Grease trap cleaning in East End
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. The work covers school and care home kitchens, pot wash sinks and inline grease traps, and people most often call us about gurgling from the sink waste and a grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time.
Work in a small place like East End starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Common problems we fix in East End
Food scraps go down the sink with the washing-up water. It settles in the trap as solids and takes up space.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- A grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time
- Gurgling drains in the kitchen
A summer deep clean suits schools such as South Baddesley Church of England Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

- What insurance they carry

- If the quote is a fixed price or an estimate
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Let us know if the kitchen gets busier
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
The waste we remove leaves with us. Nothing is left for you to dispose of after the visit.
A trap that’s left too long stops catching grease. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and saves a call-out for a blocked drain.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. The main factors are:
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- How big the system is
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- A single visit or a regular plan
What you pay depends on how big the system is, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The postcode and the type of business
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
We don’t publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from pictures or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.

East End: your questions answered
Which council inspects kitchens in East End?
In East End, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you work in villages like East End?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
What’s TR19?
A BESA specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
A full trap cannot catch any more grease. It then sets in the drains, causing blockages and smells, and can add to fatbergs in the sewer.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. None of it is left on site.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What types of premises do you cover?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. Work is timed around how each site runs.
What grease trap cleaning looks like in East End
It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in East End. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Lymington New Forest Hospital about 2.7 miles west, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. Where a church or community hall near Church of St Mary, or anywhere in East End, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.

How the visit works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. In a small place like East End, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- First, we locate the grease trap and look at the pipework around it.
- The sinks feeding the trap are kept out of use while we work.
- Built-up fat, oil and grease is removed from the trap.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
Getting ready for the visit
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

What your team can do, and what needs us
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That’s our job.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
