About our grease trap cleaning in Hungerford
For kitchens across Hungerford, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. If you’re dealing with an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and a larger grease trap that needs emptying, we can put it right.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Grease trap cleaning around Hungerford
Food Standards Agency data counts about 4 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Hungerford. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer. Environmental health officers from New Forest council inspect food businesses in Hungerford. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Where a church or community hall near Church of the Holy Ascension, or anywhere in Hungerford, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. For schools such as Hyde Church of England Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are typically booked for the holidays.

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:
- The number of sites or systems
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- The size of the system
Whatever the type of site, the quote works the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we will explain each part.
Asking for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The postcode and the type of business
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, from your photos and details or, where that is not enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.
Why act early in Hungerford
A blocked drain can stop a kitchen in its tracks. Sinks won’t empty, and dirty water can back up. Cleaning the grease trap on time helps prevent it. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. Call for a fixed quote, and we’ll explain what it covers.

Signs you need grease trap cleaning in Hungerford
If a trap is not emptied, grease passes straight through. It goes on into the drain and on towards the sewer, where it can form blockages.
It’s time to book a visit if you see:
- A small trap that fills too quickly
- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
- Gurgling from the sink waste
If you run a kitchen in an older building near Hungerford, such as a historic house like Breamore House (about 4.3 miles north), older drains make a working grease trap all the more important.

How the visit works
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we are in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Hungerford and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
Preparing for the visit
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Aftercare tips
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:
- Hot water only moves grease further down
- Don’t wait for a blockage to book a clean
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
Keep used oil out of the drains, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It makes a real difference.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. We agree the timing with you.
