Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Hartfield
We clean grease traps for kitchens in Hartfield, from small under-sink units to inline traps and interceptors. We come when the sinks are not needed, so the kitchen keeps running. The work covers kitchen waste pipes, under-sink grease traps and pot wash sinks, and the jobs we see most are a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease and an inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

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, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
How the visit works
Your staff do not need to do much on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. In a small place like Hartfield, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.
- We agree a time when the sinks aren’t 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.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
Preparing for the visit
- Make sure someone can let us in and lock up afterwards
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive

Related advice
What the work involves, part by part
Inline grease traps
Several sinks may drain into one inline trap. More waste means faster filling.
Under-sink grease traps
An under-sink trap is out of sight. When they fill, the sink slows and starts to smell.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition we find in the survey
What you pay reflects the actual work. That is why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before we start.
Asking for a quote
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- The site address and the type of premises
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
To get a fixed quote, ring 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will normally have a quote within one working day.

Leave it or put it right?
Some kitchens try to fix slow drains with hot water or drain cleaners. It just shifts the grease further along to set somewhere harder to reach. Emptying and cleaning the trap deals with the source. It’s worth booking a check, because nobody sees inside a duct day to day.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re unsure, call 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line for straight advice and a fixed quote.
