About our grease trap cleaning in North Stoneham
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. We empty the built-up grease and food solids, clean the inside and the baffles, and check the trap is working properly. The work covers pot wash sinks, inline grease traps and restaurants and takeaways, and common reasons people get in touch are gurgling from the sink waste and a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease.
Somewhere as small as North Stoneham, the kitchens that need a deep clean are normally 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.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with photos, and showing what was done. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal, ready for your insurer.

Keeping the system healthy
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
- Don’t rely on hot water to clear grease
Keep used oil out of the drains and the trap won’t fill as quickly. It makes a real difference.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. We agree the timing with you.

When something else is needed
We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what grease trap cleaning won’t do:
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
- Blockages further down the drainage network
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.
Parts of the system we cover

Multi-site and managed buildings
Facilities teams in offices, schools and healthcare sites book us too in North Stoneham and across Hampshire. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.

What affects the quote in North Stoneham
We do not publish a price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The size of the system
- Any permits to work or inductions
The cost depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so you know where you stand.
What we need to know
To help us quote quickly, send us:
- Problems your staff have spotted
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
Every quote begins with a look at the system, from your photos and details or, where that isn’t enough, a survey on site. After that, you get a fixed price for the work so you know the cost before any work starts.
Common questions in North Stoneham
Do you cover smaller places like North Stoneham?
Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and North Stoneham is covered. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can school kitchens in North Stoneham be cleaned in the holidays?
Yes, and it’s the easiest time to do it. There are about 12 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of North Stoneham. You can ring 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with the dates the site is empty.
Where does the waste go?
Anything we remove is contained as we work and taken away with us, from grease and debris to used cleaning water. None of it is left on site.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The recommended date is on the report. For kitchen extracts, BESA’s minimum intervals run from every 3 months for heavy use to every 12 months for light use, and fire dampers need testing at least once a year.
Do you have insurance?
Yes, fully. We also hold CHAS and SafeContractor, for sites that check contractor safety.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
Which records should we keep?
Each report and certificate we give you, kept together in your maintenance log with your in-house cleaning records. BESA says certificates should show the date, location and technician.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
Once it’s full, grease passes straight through. It then sets in the drains, causing blockages and smells, and can add to fatbergs in the sewer.
Common problems we fix in North Stoneham
If a trap isn’t emptied, grease passes straight through. It then builds up in the drains and on towards the sewer, where it can form blockages.
Common reasons sites call us include:
- Sinks that drain slowly
- A bad smell from the sinks or drains
- A routine grease trap service
- Gurgling from the sink waste
If you look after a hall kitchen near St. Nicolas' Church or anywhere in North Stoneham, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

How the job changes from site to site
Baffles and outlets
The outlet carries the separated water on to the drain. If it’s blocked or greasy, the trap backs up.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink units are easy to forget. A full one shows itself with a slow, smelly sink.
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.
