What we do, step by step
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. We book the visit for a time the area is closed, whether that’s an evening, overnight or a weekend. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. Photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan a visit to Keeper's Corner.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- Nothing drains into the trap while it’s open.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- The trap is reassembled, checked for leaks and the waste taken away.
Getting ready for the visit
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use

Advice
How we handle grease trap cleaning in Keeper's Corner
No two traps are quite the same. Under-sink traps are compact and need frequent attention and larger traps hold more grease before they fill. We assess the trap and how fast it fills before suggesting how often it needs cleaning. If you have drains that gurgle and bubble and an overdue grease trap, we can put it right.
Somewhere as small as Keeper's Corner, the kitchens that need a deep clean are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

How the job changes from site to site
School, care home and staff kitchens
Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. Visits are planned between meals.
Inline grease traps
Several sinks may drain into one inline trap. That means more grease, so regular cleaning matters.
Why act early in Keeper's Corner
Smells from a neglected trap are hard to ignore. Decomposing waste in the trap smells bad that can reach the kitchen and beyond. Cleaning it removes the cause. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. You get a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

What grease trap cleaning looks like in Keeper's Corner
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 7 pubs, bars and clubs in and around Keeper's Corner, up to about a mile and a half out. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Food hygiene inspections in Keeper's Corner are the job of Mid Sussex council’s environmental health team. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
If you cater for weddings or events at a historic house in the area (Saint Hill Manor is about 4.8 miles south-east), deep cleans can be fitted between bookings. Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Langley Green Hospital, about 3.9 miles west, is the nearest hospital to Keeper's Corner.

Keeping the system healthy
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- Hot water only moves grease further down
- 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.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. We agree the timing with you.
When something else is needed
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
- Sewer problems outside the premises
If you are not sure, just phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before booking.

Keeper's Corner: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Keeper's Corner?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. That way a site in Keeper's Corner does not have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Which environmental health team covers Keeper's Corner?
Food hygiene inspections in Keeper's Corner are carried out by Mid Sussex council. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. We work across South East England and London, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. The area we’re working in has to be out of use while we are there, so the visit goes in a quiet slot.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
Under-sink and inline grease traps, and larger interceptors. They’re emptied, cleaned and checked in the same careful way.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. Scheduled maintenance plans are part of what we do, set at the interval the system needs. Each report recommends when the next visit should be.
Who is the responsible person?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, it’s the responsible person: normally the employer or whoever controls the premises. In shared or managed buildings, a landlord, facilities manager or managing agent can share the duty.
Common problems we fix in Keeper's Corner
Oil tipped down the drain instead of being collected fills a grease trap far faster than washing-up. Even small amounts add up.
Clients normally contact us after spotting one of these:
- A small trap that fills too quickly
- A full, neglected grease trap
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- An interceptor full of grease and solids
Hall kitchens near Church of St Bartholomew or elsewhere in Keeper's Corner may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.
