Grease trap cleaning for Mogador, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.

Grease trap cleaning in Mogador, done properly
Smells from the sink, gurgling drains or slow drainage all point to the grease trap. We find the trap, empty it and clean it and run water through to check it drains. The work covers pot wash sinks, school and care home kitchens and inline grease traps, and people most often call us about grease setting in the kitchen pipework and gurgling from the sink waste.
Somewhere as small as Mogador, the kitchens that need a deep clean are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we’ve been trading since 2009.

What grease trap cleaning looks like in Mogador
The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses in and around Mogador, up to about a mile and a half out. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Food hygiene inspections in Mogador are the job of Reigate and Banstead council’s environmental health team. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
School kitchens, at schools like Kingswood Primary School for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of Jesus Christ and the Wisdom of God or anywhere in Mogador, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Different parts, different methods
Inline grease traps
Access to an inline trap can be in a floor or cupboard. We check how to reach it before the visit.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink units are easy to forget. A full one shows itself with a slow, smelly sink.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Mogador
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Every visit ends with a dated report and photos, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in Mogador and across Surrey. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
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 we take it from there. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Mogador and turn up when the site is quiet.
- A visit is booked around your service.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
Before we arrive
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, a few photos and any previous report or certificate. Once you have those, ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.
Advice
Why deal with it now?
Wherever the kitchen is in Mogador, backed-up drains stop it working. Sinks won’t empty and waste water can come back up. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Tell us about everything you’d like looked at, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

What else we do in Mogador
When to call us in Mogador
A busy kitchen in Mogador, or anywhere else, fills its grease trap faster. Traps sized for lighter use can fill very quickly when trade picks up.
What we’re most often called out for:
- Gurgling from the sink waste
- A kitchen drain that smells
- A grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Headley Court (about 3.2 miles north-west), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.
Questions to ask before you book
- Whether they recommend a next date
- Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
- Whether the price is fixed
- What’s included in the scope, part by part
When it’s something else
Some problems need a different service or another trade:
- Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
- A leaking sink waste or trap connection
- Drains that are cracked or have collapsed
If you are not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we’ll give you a straight answer.

Mogador questions
Which environmental health team covers Mogador?
That’s Reigate and Banstead council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Mogador. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you work at weekends in Mogador?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. It means the site in Mogador keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you survey before quoting?
Yes, always. We diagnose before we treat: the survey shows what needs doing and what access we need and the fixed quote is built on it.
What does TR19 mean?
TR19® is the BESA specification for keeping ventilation systems clean. Since 2019, TR19® Grease has been a standalone specification for grease in kitchen extract systems, and TR19® Air covers general supply and extract systems.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and the details are available on request.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before any work starts, and waste is contained as we go. At the end, the area is cleaned down.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. Booking the work out of hours means the site can carry on as normal. Larger jobs can be phased over several visits so parts stay in use.
