Grease trap cleaning in Furzeley Corner

Between visits

No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:

  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Keep strainers in every sink
  • Collect waste cooking oil separately
  • Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease

Keep used oil out of the drains, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It’s the single easiest way to help.

A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.

Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Furzeley Corner

Grease traps sit between the sinks and the drain, holding back fats, oils and grease. As the waste water cools, the grease floats and stays in the trap, and clean water flows on. Eventually it fills and needs emptying and cleaning. If you have an under-sink trap that keeps filling up and a full, neglected grease trap, we can help.

Somewhere as small as Furzeley Corner, the kitchens that need a deep clean are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.

Good records are part of the job. Each visit is written up with photos, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Furzeley Corner

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Furzeley Corner?

The local authority for Furzeley Corner is Winchester City council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.

Can the work in Furzeley Corner be done at night or at weekends?

Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. The work in Furzeley Corner can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

How long does a grease trap clean take?

Typically, it takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. A large or very full trap takes longer, and we will tell you in advance.

Will you tell us when the next visit is due?

Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.

Which sectors do you work in?

Restaurants and pubs, hotels, schools and colleges, hospitals and care homes, offices and retail, plus food production and leisure sites.

Is there a survey before the work?

Yes. Photos often do the job, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.

Where does the grease from the trap go?

The fat, oil, grease and solids we remove go with us. None of it goes back into the drains at any point.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Anything that proves the system is maintained: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.

How we price grease trap cleaning

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The condition we find in the survey
  • Working hours and out-of-hours timing
  • How easy every part is to reach

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered and we’ll price it together.

Helping us quote

A few details help us quote accurately. With your enquiry, please include:

  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Your last certificate, test record or report
  • How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room

Every quote begins with a look at the system, either from pictures and details you send or from a site visit. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Furzeley Corner

When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.

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 pictures.

Why act early in Furzeley Corner

Grease that gets past the trap doesn’t disappear. It adds to blockages further down the drains and sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps it where it can be removed. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is all affect the cost. We take each of them into account, and the price is fixed before any work starts.

Signs you need grease trap cleaning in Furzeley Corner

Every pan and plate washed sends grease towards the drain. In the trap, they cool and separate, and the layer gets thicker day by day.

Most sites get in touch after spotting something like this:

  • A small trap that fills too quickly
  • Foul odours from the grease trap
  • Gurgling from the sink waste
  • A slow-draining kitchen sink

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Denmead Junior School or anywhere near Furzeley Corner, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean.

Choosing a duct cleaning contractor

In-house cleaning or a specialist?

When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and send you a fixed quote.

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

The process

When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the photos you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Seeing the system in photos first means the trip to Furzeley Corner can be planned properly.

  1. First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
  2. Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
  3. We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
  4. The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
  5. We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site
  • Find the previous report, if there is one
  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
