About our grease trap cleaning in Meonstoke
For kitchens across Meonstoke, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. We empty, clean and check the trap and remove the waste. It can be booked on its own or alongside other kitchen work. Common call-outs are for a routine grease trap service and a grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time, across kitchen waste pipes, school and care home kitchens and inline grease traps.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
A written report with pictures follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What the work involves, part by part
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They hold more than under-sink units but still fill up.
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
Busy kitchens with lots of washing-up fill traps fast. They often need the most frequent cleaning.

Evening, overnight and weekend visits are all possible. It’s Winchester City council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Meonstoke.

Hinton Ampner House, about 4.8 miles north, is one of the historic houses around Meonstoke; event kitchens at places like that work in bursts, so a deep clean after a busy season helps.

Signs you need grease trap cleaning in Meonstoke
If a trap is not emptied, grease passes straight through. It then builds up in the drains and the sewer beyond, where it can form blockages.
Clients typically contact us after spotting something like this:
- A slow-draining kitchen sink
- Gurgling from the sink waste
- A grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
Hall and church kitchens, near Church of St Andrew or anywhere around Meonstoke, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order.
Before you book anyone
- Whether the price is fixed
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- When the next visit should be, and why
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
Why deal with it now?
A dirty grease trap smells. Rotting food and grease give off foul odours and the smell carries. A clean trap takes the source away. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at and we will price it together.
Why book with us
- Photo reports with every job
- Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
- In business since 2009
- A BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease

Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and photos, ready to show insurers, fire officers or EHOs.
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- The scale of the work
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
You don’t need the technical terms. Just send:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
What staff can safely do
Staff cleaning doesn’t replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you can’t see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. That’s our job.
Meonstoke: your questions answered
Do you work overnight in Meonstoke?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. Your customers, staff or residents in Meonstoke needn’t be disturbed. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Who inspects food businesses in Meonstoke?
In Meonstoke, it’s Winchester City council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Everything that shows the system is looked after: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. A single log for each site works best.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
How much time does a grease trap clean need?
Most grease trap cleans take less than an hour for many under-sink units including checking it drains. We plan the visit around your service.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
It depends where the blockage is. A full trap is a common cause, and cleaning it can help but grease set further down the drains needs jetting by a drainage specialist.
Where does the grease from the trap go?
The waste leaves with us. Nothing greasy is left on site when we go.
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 we book a time when it would be closed anyway.
