Grease trap cleaning in Foulford, done properly
If the sinks drain slowly or smell, the trap is often the cause. In Foulford, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap, then check the water flows properly. Typical jobs include gurgling drains in the kitchen and a regular cleaning plan for the grease trap, across restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and kitchen waste pipes.
For a kitchen in or near Foulford, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Foulford questions
Is Foulford within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Foulford is covered. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Foulford?
Kitchens in Foulford are inspected by New Forest council’s environmental health officers. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and you’ll get one fixed quote.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Commercial premises of every kind: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Do the sinks have to be out of use during the clean?
While the trap is being cleaned, nothing can drain into it. We book the visit around your service so the kitchen isn’t held up.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What accreditations do you have?
CHAS, SafeContractor, ISO 9001 and BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Grease trap cleaning around Foulford
Food Standards Agency records list about 3 restaurants, cafés and works canteens in Foulford and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. A grease trap in kitchens like these fills steadily and needs emptying before it overflows. Kitchens in Foulford get their food hygiene inspections from New Forest council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
A summer deep clean suits schools such as Ringwood School Academy, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. Historic houses such as Avon Tyrrell House (about 3.3 miles south) are part of the area around Foulford, 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 Foulford (the nearest hospital is St Leonard's Hospital, about 5.5 miles south-west), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

Different parts, different methods
Baffles and outlets
The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. Grease clings to them, so we clean them.
Grease interceptors
A larger unit takes more time to empty and clean and we plan the visit accordingly.
The process
Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. You only need to give us clear access and switch off what needs to be off. The visit takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. Somewhere as small as Foulford, the date and timings are agreed with you well before the day.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- We open the trap and look at its condition.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
How to prepare
- Mention any parking or loading restrictions
- Move anything stored near the system
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, you get a fixed price before work begins.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Foulford
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we are happy to quote for all of it.
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 send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Between visits
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
Scrape plates into the bin before washing up. Use strainers in the sink plugholes before they reach the trap.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage later.

How we price grease trap cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We look at:
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- Any permits to work or inductions
- A single visit or a regular plan
- What state the system is in
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.
Helping us quote
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and pictures, and we typically reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
