How we handle grease trap cleaning in Eyhorne Street
Grease is behind most blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly keeps them out of the drains. The work covers school and care home kitchens, under-sink grease traps and restaurants and takeaways, and the jobs we see most are an inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning and gurgling from the sink waste.
Somewhere as small as Eyhorne Street, the kitchens that need a deep clean are normally a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That is why every job is written up in a report with pictures, and grease extract cleans come with a TR19® certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work are not the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Why it’s worth doing now in Eyhorne Street
Wherever the kitchen is in Eyhorne Street, backed-up drains stop it working. Sinks won’t empty and waste water can come back up. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.

How the visit works
Protection comes first: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes less than an hour for many under-sink units, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. Pictures of the system and its access let us plan the work in Eyhorne Street before we set off.
- We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.
How to prepare
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area

FAQs for Eyhorne Street
Is Eyhorne Street within the area you cover?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Do you work overnight in Eyhorne Street?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Eyhorne Street does not have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which records should we keep?
Anything that proves the system is maintained: reports, certificates, photos and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
We start with protection: floor sheeting and covers over nearby surfaces and equipment. The area is left tidy, with our waste taken away.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
Once it’s full, grease passes straight through. The grease hardens in the pipes, leading to blocked drains and smells and can end up adding to sewer blockages.
Which accreditations do you hold?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. Vent Hygiene Elite is run by BESCA and independently audited.
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.
For landlords and multi-site operators
From a single site to a large estate, you get the same standard: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with pictures.
If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so each one has its own record.
Keeping the system healthy
Here’s the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Hot water only moves grease further down
- Don’t wait for a blockage to book a clean
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
You’ll get our view on how often the trap needs cleaning. It’s based on how full it was and how busy the kitchen is.
If the kitchen has got busier, the trap fills faster. Shortening the cleaning interval now keeps the drains flowing.
Signs you need grease trap cleaning in Eyhorne Street
For a kitchen in Eyhorne Street or anywhere else, the trap is out of sight and out of mind. Hidden under a sink or in a floor, it’s often ignored until something goes wrong.
Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:
- Grease setting in the kitchen pipework
- A kitchen drain that smells
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- Gurgling drains in the kitchen
Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Hollingbourne Primary School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.
