Grease trap cleaning in Lawrence Hill, done properly
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that is emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. The work covers restaurants and takeaways, school and care home kitchens and inline grease traps, and people most often call us about a regular cleaning plan for the grease trap and a small trap that fills too quickly.
Around a place like Lawrence Hill, deep clean work tends to mean pubs, cafés and school or care home kitchens. Smaller kitchens still collect grease behind equipment and in the drains.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a dated report with pictures of the work, and for TR19® Grease cleans, a certificate issued through the BESCA VHE portal. Any parts we couldn’t reach are recorded on it too.

How it works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. In a place like Lawrence Hill, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- Nothing drains into the trap while it’s open.
- Built-up fat, oil and grease is removed from the trap.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
Ask for a quote
There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, then send a fixed quote. To get going, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. What they cannot safely do is clean inside the ductwork, the fan or the risers, which is where we come in.
For landlords and multi-site operators
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Tell us the site, the work and the access arrangements and we’ll come back with a fixed quote.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
Your quote is based on your site. We take into account:
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition we find in the survey
- The number of sites or systems
- Where the site is and how we reach it
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’ll go through it with you.
What we need to know
You do not need the technical terms. Just send:
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- The postcode and the type of business
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your pictures and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before work begins.

FAQs for Lawrence Hill
Can school kitchens in Lawrence Hill be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. With about 8 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Lawrence Hill, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Which council inspects kitchens in Lawrence Hill?
Food hygiene inspections in Lawrence Hill are carried out by Bracknell Forest council. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. The report recommends when the next visit should be, based on what we found and how the system is used.
Can you look after several sites?
Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we’ll quote them together.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. You get a written report with photos after each visit, showing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Kitchen extract cleans to TR19® Grease also get a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Do you look at the system first?

How much does grease trap cleaning cost?
The price depends on the trap and the schedule. Just give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will quote before any work starts.
Leave it or put it right?
A smelly, overflowing trap attracts pests. A clean trap is less of an attraction as part of a clean kitchen. A site near Lawrence Hill that has to close at short notice is hard to cover for.
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 the price is fixed before any work starts.

Different parts, different methods
Baffles and outlets
The outlet carries the separated water on to the drain. A blocked outlet stops the trap working.
Inline grease traps
An inline trap sits in the pipework between the kitchen and the drain. They hold more than under-sink units but still need regular emptying.
