Grease trap cleaning for sites in North Boarhunt

Grease trap cleaning in North Boarhunt, done properly

Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. We empty the built-up grease and food solids and the chambers and baffles cleaned and the trap checked before we leave. Common call-outs are for a larger grease trap that needs emptying and gurgling from the sink waste, on under-sink grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and pot wash sinks.

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.

The sign-off is always in writing: a dated report with photos of the work, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

What a clean won’t put right

It’s worth knowing the limits before booking:

  • Sewer problems outside the premises
  • A trap undersized for the amount of cooking
  • Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor

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

What the work covers

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

How the visit works

Everything the job needs comes with us, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. If you can send photos, we can arrive in North Boarhunt knowing what to expect.

  1. We agree a time when the sinks aren’t needed.
  2. The trap is opened up and checked.
  3. Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
  4. We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
  5. We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.

How to prepare

  • Clear the space around the work
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Arrange a key holder or contact on site

Related advice

Leave it or put it right?

For a kitchen in North Boarhunt, a regular grease trap clean is a small, planned job. A blocked drain is an emergency and normally at the worst moment. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

Every site is different, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.

What you get with us

  • Photo reports with every job
  • Out-of-hours work and a 24/7 emergency line
  • Fixed quotes, usually within one working day
  • We are fully insured

Multi-site and managed buildings

Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Each visit ends with a dated report and pictures, 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 North Boarhunt and across Hampshire. Work can be phased by floor, building or site around the people who use them.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work

In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. 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. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.

Different parts, different methods

Under-sink grease traps

We empty and clean under-sink traps without disrupting the rest of the kitchen and check the seal on the lid.

School, care home and staff kitchens

Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. We fit visits around mealtimes.

What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • Parking and loading at the site
  • How many systems or sites are involved
  • The size of the system
  • When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends

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 you will get one fixed quote.

Asking for a quote

There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:

  • Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
  • The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
  • Where the site is and what kind of site it is
  • Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall

Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you’ll normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.

What grease trap cleaning looks like in North Boarhunt

Kitchens in North Boarhunt get their food hygiene inspections from Winchester City council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.

If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near North Boarhunt (the nearest hospital is Knowle Hospital, about 2.8 miles west), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Newtown Soberton Infant School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. Where a church or community hall near Church of the Holy Trinity, or anywhere in North Boarhunt, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.

What should go in our maintenance log?

Anything that proves the system is maintained: our reports and pictures, any certificates and your in-house logs. A single log for each site works best.

How do you protect the area?

With sheeting and covers, before anything else happens. The work is kept contained and leave the area clean.
