Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Eythorne
Every trap is different. Under-sink units are small and fill quickly, while inline traps and interceptors hold more. We look at the trap, how much the kitchen uses it and how quickly it fills and suggest an interval that suits. The work covers school and care home kitchens, inline grease traps and under-sink grease traps, and people most often call us about foul odours from the grease trap and drains that gurgle and bubble.
Work in a small place like Eythorne starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we are fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

What grease trap cleaning looks like in Eythorne
Food Standards Agency data counts about 3 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens in and around Eythorne, up to about a mile and a half out. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer. Food hygiene inspections in Eythorne are the job of Dover council’s environmental health team. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of St Peter and St Paul or anywhere in Eythorne, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event. Historic houses such as Goodnestone Park (about 3.6 miles north-west) are part of the area around Eythorne, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps. If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Eythorne (the nearest hospital is Buckland Hospital, about 4.7 miles south), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

Eythorne: your questions answered
Can you get to a site in Eythorne?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Eythorne is covered. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you work in Eythorne outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. Your customers, staff or residents in Eythorne needn’t be disturbed. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Usually not. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
What types of premises do you cover?
Commercial premises of every kind: kitchens, offices, schools, healthcare, retail, leisure and food production. Work is timed around how each site runs.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
Will cleaning the grease trap fix a blocked drain?
Our service covers the grease trap itself. If the drain beyond the trap is blocked or damaged, we will tell you and suggest a drainage contractor.
How often should a grease trap be cleaned?
It varies. The interval depends on how quickly your trap fills and we’ll advise on timing.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
As a guide, it takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. Bigger or overdue traps need more time, and we’ll tell you in advance.

What else we do in Eythorne
Different parts, different methods
School, care home and staff kitchens
Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. Visits are planned between meals.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink units are easy to forget. When they fill, the sink slows and starts to smell.
Keeping the system healthy
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. We recommend:
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
Keep used oil out of the drains and the trap will not fill as quickly. It’s the single easiest way to help.
Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Acting at this stage typically prevents a blockage later.
Why it’s worth doing now in Eythorne
Grease that gets past the trap doesn’t disappear. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. In a place like Eythorne, ductwork and fans are easy to forget until something goes wrong.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we will price it together.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Eythorne
Whether it’s one building or many, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
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.
Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
The process
The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and pictures. The middle part takes longest, and that takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Eythorne can be planned properly.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
Getting ready for the visit
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
