Grease trap cleaning in North Aston

Grease trap cleaning in North Aston, done properly

For kitchens across North Aston, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It can be booked on its own or alongside other kitchen work. The work covers school and care home kitchens, restaurants and takeaways and kitchen waste pipes, and common reasons people get in touch are drains that gurgle and bubble and a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease.

In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.

Good records are part of the job. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s ready for an insurer, fire officer or EHO.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in North Aston

Can you come to North Aston after we close?

Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. It means the site in North Aston keeps running as normal. When you phone us on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line, mention when the site is quiet.

Who inspects food businesses in North Aston?

That’s Cherwell council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in North Aston. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.

What do you do to protect the area?

By covering it before any work starts. The work is kept contained and clean down when we finish.

What is TR19?

BESA’s ventilation hygiene specification in two main parts: TR19® Grease for kitchen extract systems and TR19® Air for general ventilation. It is not law, but it’s the benchmark.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Each site gets its own report and photos.

Is North Aston in your area?

Yes. We work in North Aston and the rest of Oxfordshire, within our South East and London area. To book, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line.

What paperwork should we keep on file?

Every certificate and report from each visit, kept together in your maintenance log, along with your own cleaning log. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.

Are you accredited?

We are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.

When something else is needed

Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we’d rather say so up front. It does not solve:

  • Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
  • Plumbing leaks around the sink
  • Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we will give you a straight answer.

What we work on in North Aston

  • Inline grease traps
  • Kitchen waste pipes
  • Under-sink grease traps
  • Restaurants and takeaways
  • Pot wash sinks
  • School and care home kitchens

Leave it or put it right?

Wherever the kitchen is in North Aston, backed-up drains stop it working. Water will not drain away, and dirty water can back up. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk. It’s simpler to plan the work at North Aston now than to arrange it in a hurry later.

What staff can safely do

Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.

Keep a record of what your team does. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks helps show that the system is managed between specialist visits, next to our reports.

Multi-site and managed buildings

Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we will send a fixed quote.

If you look after several sites, we can plan visits across the whole estate and price them together. Each site gets its own report and photos, so each one has its own record.

What we do, step by step

Your staff do not need to do much 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. Rural roads and tight entrances are worth telling us about before a visit to North Aston.

  1. We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
  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. We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.

Preparing for the visit

  • Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Have your last certificate or report to hand

What affects the quote in North Aston

Every site gets its own quote. This is what makes a difference:

  • The size of the system
  • How easy every part is to reach
  • One-off work versus a regular cycle
  • Any permits to work or inductions

When the work has to happen, how we reach it and how big the site is can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote, and the price is fixed before work begins.

Asking for a quote

A few details help us quote accurately. When you get in touch, it helps to send:

  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • Problems your staff have spotted

Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. Then we send a fixed price, before we start.

What the work involves, part by part

Restaurant and takeaway kitchens

Busy kitchens cannot afford a blocked drain. Keeping the trap clean reduces the risk.

School, care home and staff kitchens

In schools, grease traps can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed or after lunch service.
