What staff can safely do
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, alongside our reports.
Grease trap cleaning in Fulham, done properly
Every trap is different. Under-sink traps are compact and need frequent attention, 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 restaurants and takeaways, school and care home kitchens and kitchen waste pipes, and common reasons people get in touch are an under-sink trap that keeps filling up and an overdue grease trap.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Fulham
Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:
- How many systems or sites are involved

We do not list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, and we will explain what it covers.

Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
We’ll suggest when the trap should be cleaned again. It’s based on how full it was and how busy the kitchen is.
Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage later.
Honest limits
Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we will tell you before any work starts. It will not put right:
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- A trap undersized for the amount of cooking
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
If in doubt, call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will say what we think.

Common questions in Fulham
Do you work overnight in Fulham?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in Fulham keeps running as normal. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Fulham?
Kitchens in Fulham are inspected by Hammersmith and Fulham council’s environmental health officers. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
The report shows them clearly. In ductwork, new access panels are often the answer, which we can install.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
Not in itself. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to TR19® as the benchmark, and many insurers ask for proof of cleaning to it. The legal duty sits in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, depending on what the system needs.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
What accreditations do you have?
We hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, alongside BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
Grease trap cleaning in Fulham: local notes
Food Standards Agency records list about 23 food manufacturers and packers within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Fulham. Production sites can wash large amounts of fat and oil towards the drain, so traps need emptying to suit the volume. In London, deep cleans and grease trap work are normally done overnight, so the kitchen opens as normal the next day. It’s Hammersmith and Fulham council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Fulham. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Fulham (the nearest hospital is Western Hospital, about 0.7 miles north-east), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service. A summer deep clean suits schools such as St Johns Walham Green Church of England Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Multi-site and managed buildings

We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

- We agree a time when the sinks are not needed.
- 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.
