Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Mousehill

A neglected grease trap stops doing its job. Further down the pipe, the grease cools and hardens and the result is blocked drains and bad smells. Regular cleaning keeps it working. The work covers restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and school and care home kitchens, and people most often call us about a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease and an overdue grease trap.

Work in a small place like Mousehill starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.

We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

Leave it or put it right?

Grease that gets past the trap does not disappear. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. Rural sites cannot always move to another kitchen or room when something fails.

The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before any work starts.

Why us?

  • Fixed quotes, normally within one working day
  • Accredited under CHAS and SafeContractor, with ISO 9001
  • Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
  • Full insurance on every job

What the work involves, part by part

School, care home and staff kitchens

Kitchens with fixed mealtimes build up grease more predictably. Planned cleaning fits their routine.

Under-sink grease traps

An under-sink trap is out of sight. A full one shows itself with a slow, smelly sink.

For landlords and multi-site operators

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Every building has its own written report, so records stay tidy.

Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We are happy to deal with either side and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.

Commercial kitchens in Mousehill

The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Mousehill. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Environmental health officers from Waverley council inspect food businesses in Mousehill. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.

If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Milford Hospital about 1.1 miles east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. For busy kitchens close to Milford (Surrey) station, deep cleans and grease trap work can be done after closing. School kitchens, at schools like Milford School for example, usually have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed.

Mousehill: your questions answered

Can you work in Mousehill outside opening hours?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The work in Mousehill can fit around your hours. Tell us your opening hours when you ask for a quote.

Do you work in villages like Mousehill?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Mousehill is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any commercial site with kitchens or ventilation, from a single café to a large school. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.

Do we need to close while you work?

Not normally. We need the work area to ourselves while we’re on site, so we book a time when it would be closed anyway.

Will I get paperwork for my records?

Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with pictures of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.

What happens to the waste?

Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, including grease, debris and dirty water. We do not leave it behind.

Which grease traps does the service cover?

Under-sink and inline grease traps, and larger interceptors. Each one is emptied, cleaned and checked whatever the size.

How much notice should we give?

Book as early as you can for planned work, particularly if your next visit is nearly due. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.

How we price grease trap cleaning

The diagnosis comes before the price. The main factors are:

  • The condition of the system
  • A single visit or a regular plan
  • The size of the system
  • Travel, parking and unloading

Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: the size of the job, access, condition and working hours. Call for a fixed quote and we’ll go through it with you.

What to send for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. It helps if you can send:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The postcode and the type of business
  • Any previous report or certificate
  • The times we could work without disrupting the site

The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and many jobs can be priced from that alone.

Between visits

Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:

  • Do not store things on top of the trap
  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Use strainers in the sink plugholes
  • Mention any increase in cooking

Keep used oil out of the drains and the trap won’t fill as quickly. It’s the single easiest way to help.

Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Acting at this stage typically prevents a blockage down the line.

How the visit works

Every visit runs to the same pattern: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, tidy up and hand over the paperwork. On site, the work takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. Somewhere like Mousehill, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.

  1. First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
  2. Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
  3. We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
  4. We clean every part of the inside.
  5. The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
  • Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Ask for a quote

To help us quote: the address, the type of site and when it’s open, photos of the system and the last certificate or report, if there is one. Once you have those, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email.
