Grease trap cleaning in Great Warley, done properly
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Down the line, they can add to fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. Typical jobs include a kitchen drain that smells and a larger grease trap that needs emptying, across restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and school and care home kitchens.
In a village or hamlet like Great Warley, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and give you a fixed quote.
How it works
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes less than an hour for many under-sink units, and we clear up before we go. In a small place like Great Warley, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We agree a time when the sinks aren’t needed.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
- The inside, baffles and outlet are cleaned.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Fat from washing up sets hard in pipes, and kitchens like these produce plenty of it. It’s Brentwood council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Great Warley. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.

Why deal with it now?
Grease that gets past the trap does not disappear. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps it where it can be removed. In a small place like Great Warley, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and why the quote is fixed before we start.

Looking after it afterwards
Aftercare is simple, and it helps at the next visit:
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
- Do not store things on top of the trap
We take the grease and solids away. Nothing is left for you to dispose of after the visit.
An overfull trap lets grease pass. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and avoids a blockage.

Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Great Warley included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can school kitchens in Great Warley be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. Food Standards Agency records list about 5 schools, colleges and universities with registered kitchens within about a mile and a half of Great Warley. Tell us your holiday dates and we will book the visit for when the site is empty.

Do the sinks have to be out of use during the clean?
Only briefly, and only the sinks that feed the trap. Visits are booked outside your busiest hours wherever possible.
How much notice should we give?
The more notice, the better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We normally quote within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Do you take the waste away?
The fat, oil, grease and solids we remove go with us. None of it goes back into the drains at any point.
What grease trap cleaning cannot fix
Grease trap cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It will not put right:
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- Grease set hard in the drain run
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
If you are not sure, just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- The scale of the work
