About our grease trap cleaning in Paley Street
In Paley Street, we time grease trap visits so the sinks aren’t needed. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. Typical jobs include drains clogged with fat and a full, neglected grease trap, on inline grease traps, restaurants and takeaways and school and care home kitchens.
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.
Each visit ends with a written report and photos, so there’s a dated record of the work. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, the certificate is issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

What happens if it’s left?
Pests are drawn to grease and food waste. A clean trap is less of an attraction as part of a clean kitchen. Our emergency line runs 24/7, but a planned visit to Paley Street is calmer for everyone.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.

What we do, step by step
We start by comparing what we find with the survey or your pictures. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Paley Street and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We find the trap and check how it’s connected.
- Nothing drains into the trap while it’s open.
- The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- The trap is reassembled, checked for leaks and the waste taken away.
How to prepare
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Clear loose items from the work area
- Name a contact who can let us in at the agreed time

Questions from Paley Street
Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Paley Street?
The local authority for Paley Street is Windsor and Maidenhead council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you work overnight in Paley Street?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Paley Street doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
How often should a grease trap be cleaned?
That depends on the trap and the kitchen. Small under-sink units fill faster than larger traps, and busy kitchens fill them faster still. We will suggest an interval after the first clean.
How long does a grease trap clean take?
Typically, it takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. A large or very full trap takes longer, and we will tell you in advance.
Are you fully insured?
Yes. Duct Doctor is fully insured, and we can share the details when you need them.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Our office is open from 8am to 6pm on weekdays, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
An overfull trap stops separating grease. The result is slow drains, foul odours and eventually a blockage.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes. Regular plans can run on 3, 6 or 12-monthly cycles, to suit the system and how it’s used.

Paley Street kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs in Paley Street and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Kitchens in Paley Street get their food hygiene inspections from Windsor and Maidenhead council. They look at the cleanliness of the whole kitchen: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.

Historic houses such as Dorney Court (about 3.8 miles north-east) are part of the area around Paley Street, and if you run event catering at a venue like that, a deep clean between seasons helps.

What your team can do, and what needs us
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. That is our job.
