Grease trap cleaning in Micheldever Station, Hampshire
Specialist grease trap cleaning for Micheldever Station: diagnosis first, then a fixed quote, the work and a report with photos. Ask us for a fixed quote.

- A bad smell from the sinks or drains
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Micheldever Station
Smells from the sink, gurgling drains or slow drainage all point to the grease trap. In Micheldever Station, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap and run water through to check it drains. If you have drains that gurgle and bubble and a bad smell from the sinks or drains, we can help.
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.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with photos of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

Micheldever Station: your questions answered
Do you work at weekends in Micheldever Station?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Micheldever Station doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Micheldever Station?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Tell us what you have and how it’s used, and we’ll suggest a schedule and quote for it.
What should go in our maintenance log?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. They’re what an insurer, fire officer or EHO may ask for, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
How much notice should we give?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we’ll quote them together.
What types of grease trap do you clean?
Under-sink units, inline traps and interceptors are all covered. Tell us what you have and we will plan around it.
Do you take the waste away?
It’s removed from site when we leave. Your staff don’t have to handle it once the clean is done.
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
What a clean won’t put right
It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:
- Blockages further down the drainage network
- Grease set hard in the drain run
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and it goes on the report too. The visit takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. For a village or hamlet like Micheldever Station, tell us about narrow lanes, gates and parking when you book.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- We open the trap and look at its condition.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- The inside, baffles and outlet are cleaned.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
Preparing for the visit
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
How to get a quote
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
Aftercare tips
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Do not rely on hot water to clear grease
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
- Mention any increase in cooking
Between cleans, keep food scraps out of the sink. Sink strainers help catch solids so less solid waste gets through.
Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Clearing it then is a bigger job, so it’s far better to keep the trap clean.
Leave it or put it right?
Some kitchens try to fix slow drains with hot water or drain cleaners. That only moves the grease further down the pipe to set somewhere harder to reach. Emptying and cleaning the trap deals with the source. Planning a trip to Micheldever Station ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
The cost 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 any work starts, so there are no surprises.
