Grease Trap Cleaning in Odiham
Grease trap cleaning across Odiham and nearby, booked around your opening hours and signed off in writing with photos.
- A slow-draining kitchen sink
- An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
- Gurgling drains in the kitchen
Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. Our tips:
- Tell us when sinks start draining slowly
- Do not wait for a blockage to book a clean
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
- Make sure the trap can be reached easily
Between cleans, keep food scraps out of the sink. Use strainers in the sink plugholes so less solid waste gets through.
An overfull trap lets grease pass. Regular emptying keeps it working and avoids a blockage.
About our grease trap cleaning in Odiham
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles and the trap checked before we leave. If you’re dealing with an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and a slow-draining kitchen sink, we can put it right, from under-sink grease traps, pot wash sinks and restaurants and takeaways onwards.
In a place like Odiham, kitchens often sit in older buildings with older drains. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is usually the first sign.
We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. We are also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

More services for Odiham
Multi-site and managed buildings
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so visits at different addresses can be planned together and kept on a regular cycle.
Keeping records across a portfolio is half the battle. Every visit ends with a dated report and pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
Part by part
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.
Grease interceptors
An interceptor works on the same principle as a smaller trap. Grease floats and solids sink.
Common questions in Odiham
Who inspects food businesses in Odiham?
Kitchens in Odiham are inspected by Hart council’s environmental health officers. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Is Odiham within the area you cover?
Yes. Odiham is within the area we cover across London and the South East. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you work with multi-site operators?
Yes. Tell us the addresses and what each needs and we will quote them together.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
How regularly does a grease trap need emptying?
It depends on the size of the trap and how busy the kitchen is. Small under-sink units fill faster than larger traps and the busier the kitchen, the faster it fills. We’ll suggest an interval after the first clean.
Which grease traps does the service cover?
We clean under-sink traps, inline traps and interceptors. Let us know what’s fitted and we will plan the visit.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
Can we book visits on a schedule?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we’ll propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
What happens on the day
We are used to working while the site is closed. Evenings, nights and weekends are when much of our work happens, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. On site, the work takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. In a place like Odiham, we fit the visit around your hours.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- Every part of the trap is scraped and cleaned, including the baffles.
- Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.
How to prepare
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool

Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Add the site type and your opening hours, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
Advice
What affects the quote in Odiham
There’s no set price list, because no two systems are the same. What we look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- The scale of the work
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- How many systems or sites are involved
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all play a part.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- The postcode and the type of business
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- A few general shots of the system
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
Getting a quote doesn’t take long. Call or email with a few details and you will normally have a fixed price within one working day. If we need to see the system first, we book a survey around your hours.
Commercial kitchens in Odiham
The FSA’s data shows about 5 pubs, bars and clubs registered in and around Odiham, up to about a mile and a half out. Any of them serving food has a kitchen that collects grease out of sight and drains that need protecting. Environmental health officers from Hart council inspect food businesses in Odiham. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Healthcare kitchens cook through the year, so a deep clean has to be fitted around meals; Fleet Community Hospital, about 4.5 miles north-east, is the nearest hospital to Odiham. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Mayhill Junior School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned. Hall and church kitchens, near All Saints Church or anywhere around Odiham, are used by many hands, and periodic deep cleans and grease trap visits keep them in order.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
What grease trap cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- A unit that can’t cope with the kitchen’s output
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
- Blockages further down the drainage network
If in doubt, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
