Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Lynsore Bottom
Kitchens in Lynsore Bottom use us for grease trap cleaning, from small under-sink units to inline traps and interceptors. Visits are booked around your service so washing up isn’t interrupted. The work covers school and care home kitchens, inline grease traps and pot wash sinks, and people most often call us about an under-sink trap that keeps filling up and sinks that drain slowly.
Somewhere as small as Lynsore Bottom, the kitchens that need a deep clean are usually a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with pictures after each 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.

How we price grease trap cleaning
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- How easy every part is to reach
- What state the system is in
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
We can often survey from pictures. The most useful are:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The postcode and the type of business

Looking after it afterwards
Simple habits between visits make a real difference. Our advice:
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Keep strainers in every sink
Once the trap is cleaned and refitted, the sinks can be used right away. We run water through to check it drains before we go.
Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Acting at this stage normally prevents a blockage later.
How it works
Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. On site, the work takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. Visits to a village like Lynsore Bottom are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
Before we arrive

What we are called out for in Lynsore Bottom

Common reasons sites call us include:
- A routine grease trap service

- Grease setting in the kitchen pipework
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning

Questions from Lynsore Bottom
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Lynsore Bottom?
The local authority for Lynsore Bottom is Canterbury City council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Do you cover smaller places like Lynsore Bottom?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Lynsore Bottom is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
Grease escapes into the drains when the trap is full. There it hardens on the pipe walls and causes blockages. Keeping the trap clean stops that happening.
Which grease traps does the service cover?
Under-sink and inline grease traps, and larger interceptors. They’re emptied, cleaned and checked whatever the size.
How much does grease trap cleaning cost?
We price it once we know the trap and how often it needs cleaning. Get in touch and we’ll give you a fixed quote so you know the cost up front.
What accreditations do you have?
BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001. We have been trading since 2009 and we’re fully insured.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, any time. If something urgent happens, like a fan failing or damage after a fire, call our 24/7 line and we’ll talk you through the next steps.
