FAQs for Limpsfield
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Limpsfield?
That’s Tandridge council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Limpsfield. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Can school kitchens in Limpsfield be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 5 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Limpsfield, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, and we’ll fit the work in.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
We cover under-sink, inline and interceptor units. Each one is emptied, cleaned and checked whatever the size.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
Each trap is a little different, and you can expect it to take anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. We will confirm when we quote.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
What happens to the waste?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
The price depends on the trap and the schedule. Just ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll quote before any work starts.
Grease trap cleaning in Limpsfield, done properly
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles and the trap checked before we leave. We’re often asked to deal with a routine grease trap service and washing-up water that won’t drain away, on inline grease traps, under-sink grease traps and pot wash sinks.
For a kitchen in or near Limpsfield, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
For insurers and inspectors, the record counts. That is why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Grease trap cleaning in Limpsfield: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register shows about 30 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 6 takeaways in Limpsfield and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Fat from washing up sets hard in pipes, and kitchens like these produce plenty of it. Kitchens in Limpsfield get their food hygiene inspections from Tandridge council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Foetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorders Clinic, about 0.6 miles west, is the nearest hospital to Limpsfield; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times. Hall kitchens near Church of St Peter or elsewhere in Limpsfield may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. If you run a kitchen near Oxted station with long trading hours, grease builds up faster behind equipment and in the trap.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that is where we come in.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and the rest is down to us. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to Limpsfield.
- 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.
- Every part of the trap is scraped and cleaned, including the baffles.
- We put it back together, run water through and remove the waste.
Before we arrive
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Advice
For landlords and multi-site operators
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
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.
