Old Romney: your questions answered
Do you work in villages like Old Romney?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Old Romney included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Can you work in Old Romney outside opening hours?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Old Romney doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your opening times and we will plan around them.
How much notice should we give?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. For emergencies, we take calls 24/7.
Can one contract cover all our sites?
Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites on one programme. Every site has its own report.
What happens if you cannot reach some of it?
We record them on the report, with pictures where possible, and we explain what access is needed, for example new access panels.
Do you offer maintenance contracts?
Yes. We run scheduled maintenance contracts, with visits at the interval your system needs. The report from each visit recommends the next date.
Will we have to shut during the visit?
Not usually. We work when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends, so the site can carry on as normal.
Can you give me a price for grease trap cleaning?
We price it once we know the trap and how often it needs cleaning. Get in touch and we will send you a fixed quote before any work starts.
How we handle grease trap cleaning in Old Romney
In Old Romney, we time grease trap visits so the sinks aren’t needed. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked, and the waste is taken away. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. Common call-outs are for a larger grease trap that needs emptying and scheduled grease trap emptying, on under-sink grease traps, pot wash sinks and kitchen waste pipes.
Work in a small place like Old Romney starts with agreeing a date and access.
The report is your system’s health record: dated, with pictures, and showing what was done. For TR19® Grease cleans, the certificate comes through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal and sits alongside the report.

Why act early in Old Romney
Pouring hot water or chemicals down a slow drain is a common quick fix. That only moves the grease further down the pipe to set somewhere harder to reach. The lasting fix starts with the trap. In a small place like Old Romney, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. The price is fixed before work begins.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We can diagnose it and quote.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Old Romney
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Honest limits
We will not sell you work that doesn’t address the problem, so here are the limits:
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll say what we think.

What else we do in Old Romney
How we price grease trap cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Any permits to work or inductions
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- Where the site is and how we reach it
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
We don’t list prices on the website, because the cost depends on the site in front of us. For a fixed quote, phone us on 0345 646 2711 or email us, and we will explain what it covers.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Send what you can of the following:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Any symptoms, from odd noises to smells or leaks
- The paperwork from the last visit, if you have it
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or send us an email with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. You will normally have a quote within one working day.
