About our grease trap cleaning in Hunny Hill
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. We empty the built-up grease and food solids and the chambers and baffles cleaned, and check the trap is working properly. If you have a kitchen drain that smells and an overdue grease trap, we can help, from restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and school and care home kitchens onwards.
Work in a smaller place like Hunny Hill is planned around your opening hours.
Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with pictures after every visit, listing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Keep it with your fire safety records so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

Part by part
Baffles and outlets
We check the inlet, outlet and baffles at each clean so the trap works as it should.
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
Kitchens that fry and wash up all day fill their traps quickly. They often need the most frequent cleaning.
How it works
There are three stages on the day: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Getting ready means protecting surfaces and switching off what needs to be off, and the sign-off is a written report with pictures. The middle part takes longest, which takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. Because the survey comes first, a visit to Hunny Hill can normally be finished without a second trip.
- 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.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
How to prepare
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice
Grease trap cleaning in Hunny Hill: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 20 pubs, bars and clubs and about 6 hotels, B&Bs and guest houses as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Hunny Hill. Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. It’s Isle of Wight council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Hunny Hill. Walls, floors, ceilings and equipment are all part of what they look at. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Hunny Hill (the nearest hospital is St Mary's Hospital, about under half a mile north), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service. School kitchens, at schools like Hunnyhill Primary School for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. Carisbrooke Castle, about 1.3 miles south-west, is one of the historic houses around Hunny Hill; event kitchens at places like that work in bursts, so a deep clean after a busy season helps.

Why deal with it now?
Once the trap is full, grease heads for the drain. It hardens on the pipe walls, until the drain blocks. Regular trap cleaning beats dealing with a blockage. A quieter site near Hunny Hill still needs its system looked after.

Questions from Hunny Hill
Do you work in villages like Hunny Hill?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Hunny Hill included. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Hunny Hill?
That is Isle of Wight council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Hunny Hill. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line, for problems that cannot wait. Call us any time and explain what’s happened.
How much time does a grease trap clean need?
Each trap is a little different, and you can expect it to take less than an hour for many under-sink units. You will know before the visit.
What do you do to protect the area?
By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
What about areas you can’t get to?
They’re marked on the report. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, which we can install.
How far ahead should we book?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. Quotes typically come back within one working day, and emergencies are covered by our 24/7 line.
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
If we spot problems beyond the trap, such as a drain that still runs slowly, we’ll tell you. It may need a drainage specialist to investigate.
An overfull trap lets grease pass. Regular emptying keeps it working and saves a call-out for a blocked drain.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The scale of the work
- Whether several sites go on one quote
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Wide pictures of the system and the area around it
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The postcode and the type of business
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from pictures or a survey, then send a fixed quote. To start, call 0345 646 2711, or email photos.
