The process
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. The visit takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Seeing the system in pictures first means the trip to Hoyle can be planned properly.
- 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.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
Before we arrive
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Move anything stored near the system

Related advice
Grease trap cleaning in Hoyle
If the sinks drain slowly or smell, the trap is often the cause. We find the trap, empty it and clean it and run water through to check it drains. If you’re dealing with a larger grease trap that needs emptying and a routine grease trap service, we can put it right, from restaurants and takeaways, school and care home kitchens and under-sink grease traps onwards.
For a kitchen in or near Hoyle, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after each visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Why act early in Hoyle
Pests are drawn to grease and food waste. Keeping the trap clean removes something they’re looking for, alongside good kitchen hygiene. A fault that closes a site in a village like Hoyle affects everyone who depends on it.
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you an honest view and a fixed quote.

Hoyle kitchens: local notes
Environmental health officers from Chichester council inspect food businesses in Hoyle. 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. Hoyle, about 46 miles from central London, is within our usual area. Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible.
School kitchens, at schools like Midhurst Rother College for example, normally have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Midhurst Community Hospital about 2.6 miles north-west, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. If you look after a hall kitchen near The Parish Church of St James or anywhere in Hoyle, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.
Hoyle is about 9 miles north of Chichester, in West Sussex.

What a clean will not put right
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Broken pipework below ground
- A grease trap that is too small for the kitchen
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning

What affects the quote in Hoyle
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The condition of the system
- How many systems or sites are involved
- A single visit or a regular plan
When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.
What to send for a quote
Photos let us diagnose from a distance. Try to include:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Problems your staff have spotted
- The site address and the type of premises
- Your last certificate, test record or report
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, 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 any work starts.
Hoyle questions
Who inspects food businesses in Hoyle?
Food hygiene inspections in Hoyle are carried out by Chichester council. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you cover smaller places like Hoyle?
Yes, Hoyle is part of our area, however small the site. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
We clean the trap, not the drain network. Where the problem is further down the drain, we’ll say so so you can call a drainage contractor.
How much notice do you need?
For planned work, earlier is better, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
Will the grease trap clean disrupt the kitchen?
For the length of the clean, yes. It takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit, and we time it to suit you.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
How much does grease trap cleaning cost?
The price depends on the trap and the schedule. Get in touch and we’ll send you a fixed quote so you know the cost up front.
What the work involves, part by part
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
A blocked drain in a busy kitchen can stop service. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk.
Grease interceptors
An interceptor works on the same principle as a smaller trap. Grease floats and solids sink.
Looking after it afterwards
Once we have finished, these simple steps help:
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
Scrape plates into the bin before washing up. Use strainers in the sink plugholes so less solid waste gets through.
Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Once it’s there, it needs a drainage contractor to clear, so it’s far better to keep the trap clean.
