Grease trap cleaning in Hurstbourne Priors, done properly
Grease is behind most blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps them out of the drains. If you have an under-sink trap that keeps filling up and a grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time, we can help, from pot wash sinks, kitchen waste pipes and under-sink grease traps onwards.
In a village or hamlet like Hurstbourne Priors, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Part by part
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are compact units fitted below the kitchen sink. They fill quickly, so they need frequent emptying.
Baffles and outlets
The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. Grease clings to them, so we clean them.

What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Clean filters and tidy surfaces slow the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Common questions in Hurstbourne Priors
Can the work in Hurstbourne Priors be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Hurstbourne Priors needn’t be disturbed. Just call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we will plan around them.
Is Hurstbourne Priors within the area you cover?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Hurstbourne Priors is covered. A survey first, from pictures or a visit, means we arrive with the right kit.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
Most grease trap cleans take a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor including checking it drains. It’s booked when the sinks aren’t needed.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, any time. For anything urgent, such as a fan failure or damage after a fire, ring the 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
How regularly does a grease trap need emptying?
It varies with the trap and the kitchen. If the sinks start to drain slowly between cleans, it’s too long, and we can shorten it.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. Every job is surveyed first, from your photos and details, or with a visit where necessary. A fixed quote follows.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is BESA’s specification for ventilation hygiene. TR19® Grease, a standalone specification since 2019, covers grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them together and easy to find.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
The Fire Safety Order 2005 puts the duty to manage fire risk on the responsible person, and that can be the employer, the owner, a landlord, a facilities manager or a managing agent. With shared responsibility, good records help everyone.

How we price grease trap cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The size of the system
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
You will not find a price list here, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form, and we will explain what it covers.
What we need to know
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- A few general shots of the system
Quoting starts with a diagnosis, either from photos 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 work begins.
What happens if it’s left?
Pouring hot water or chemicals down a slow drain is a common quick fix. It just shifts the grease further along, where it sets again. Emptying and cleaning the trap deals with the source. Planning a trip to Hurstbourne Priors ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Ask for a fixed quote and we will go through it with you.
