Grease trap cleaning in Great Rollright
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles and the trap checked before we leave. If you have an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and a kitchen drain that smells, we can put it right, from inline grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and under-sink grease traps onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Great Rollright, 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.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That’s why every job is written up in a report with pictures, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Looking after it afterwards
Here’s the after-treatment advice, in brief:
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
Collect waste cooking oil separately rather than pouring it down the sink, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It’s the single easiest way to help.
A trap that’s left too long stops catching grease. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and avoids a blockage.
What the work involves, part by part
School, care home and staff kitchens
Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. Visits are planned between meals.
Inline grease traps
Several sinks may drain into one inline trap. More waste means faster filling.
What happens if it’s left?
Pouring hot water or chemicals down a slow drain is a common quick fix. It just shifts the grease further along, where it sets again. Emptying and cleaning the trap deals with the source. A planned visit to Great Rollright is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
We don’t list prices on the website, because each job is priced on what it involves. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will explain what it covers.

Questions from Great Rollright
Can the work in Great Rollright be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Great Rollright?
Kitchens in Great Rollright are inspected by West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health officers. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
What happens to the waste?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. We don’t leave it behind.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
How much notice should we give?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Anything that proves the system is maintained: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.
Is Great Rollright in your area?
Yes. Our technicians work in Great Rollright, within the South East and London area we cover.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. We put a recommended next date on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, while fire dampers are tested at least annually.
How it works
A visit follows the same order every time: protect the area, isolate whatever needs isolating, carry out the grease trap cleaning, tidy up and leave you the report. The visit itself takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Great Rollright, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
- Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Clear the space around the work
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Great Rollright kitchens: local notes
Food hygiene inspections in Great Rollright are the job of West Oxfordshire council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you run a church or community hall kitchen, near Church of St Andrew or elsewhere in Great Rollright, a deep clean and an emptied grease trap before a busy season of events are worth booking. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Great Rollright Church of England (Aided) Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.
