What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:
- The condition of the system
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- How easy every part is to reach
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
Helping us quote
When you call or email, these details help:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
Quotes are quick. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
How we handle grease trap cleaning in Godshill
Smells from the sink, gurgling drains or slow drainage all point to the grease trap. We find the trap, empty it and clean it, then check the water flows properly. If you’re dealing with gurgling drains in the kitchen and a full, neglected grease trap, we can help, from inline grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and under-sink grease traps onwards.
Somewhere as small as Godshill, 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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
What happens if it’s left?
Grease that gets past the trap does not disappear. It adds to blockages further down the drains and sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps it where it can be removed. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What else we do in Godshill
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, do the work, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. Somewhere like Godshill, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- The sinks feeding the trap are kept out of use while we work.
- 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.
Before we arrive
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.
Advice
Questions from Godshill
Can you get to a site in Godshill?
Yes. Godshill is within the area we cover across London and the South East. A survey first, from photos or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Which environmental health team covers Godshill?
In Godshill, it’s New Forest council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
What should go in our maintenance log?
The reports and certificates from each visit, plus your own logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
How do you protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
What does TR19 mean?
It’s BESA’s specification and the benchmark insurers, fire officers and EHOs look to. It covers how systems are inspected, cleaned and checked and expects a risk-based approach.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
Every trap is different, so we quote once we know what you have. We give you a fixed price, usually within one working day.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so sites at different addresses can be planned together as one programme. Each site gets its own report and pictures.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Commercial kitchens in Godshill
The FSA’s data shows about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs registered in Godshill and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. It’s New Forest council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Godshill. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Breamore House is about 2.9 miles north-west), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings. School kitchens, at schools like The Burgate School and Sixth Form for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. If you look after a hall kitchen near St Giles or anywhere in Godshill, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Part by part
Baffles and outlets
Baffles inside the trap slow the water so grease can separate. They gather grease and debris, so we clean them.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Care home and hospital kitchens need their drains working all the time. Visits are planned between meals.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
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.
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
