Why act early in Pevensey Bay
A smelly, overflowing trap attracts pests. Keeping the trap clean removes something they’re looking for, alongside good kitchen hygiene. Systems on quieter sites still build up dirt and wear, just more slowly.
What you pay reflects the actual work. That’s why every job is surveyed first, and the price is agreed before work begins.

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Pevensey Bay
Think of the grease trap as a filter for the kitchen’s drains. When it’s looked after, you hardly know it’s there, but neglected, it causes blockages and smells. A regular clean keeps it healthy. If you are dealing with an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and drains clogged with fat, we can put it right.
Kitchens around a smaller place like Pevensey Bay are often in older buildings, with drains and grease traps that have been there for years. A blocked drain or a smelly grease trap is typically the first sign.
Think of the report as the system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What the work involves, part by part
Grease interceptors
Interceptors separate grease the same way, on a larger scale. Grease floats and solids sink.
Inline grease traps
Inline traps often take waste from several sinks or appliances. More waste means faster filling.
How we price grease trap cleaning
Some jobs are bigger than they look, and some smaller. What affects the quote:
- The scale of the work
- The condition we find in the survey
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
- The number of sites or systems
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.
What to send for a quote
Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
Need a price for grease trap cleaning? Please give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or drop us a line with a few details about the site. We’ll explain what we’d do and send a fixed quote before you commit to anything.
Between visits
Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
- Hot water only moves grease further down
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Keep strainers in every sink
We’ll suggest when the trap should be cleaned again. That depends on how quickly it filled and how busy the kitchen is.
A fixed cleaning interval means the trap never gets overfull. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Pevensey Bay
Which council inspects kitchens in Pevensey Bay?
In Pevensey Bay, it’s Wealden council that carries out food hygiene inspections. An officer may look behind equipment and at drains, so it pays to have the deep clean booked before those areas build up.
Can you come to Pevensey Bay after we close?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. That way a site in Pevensey Bay doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Is there a survey before the work?
Yes. For many sites, photos and a few details are enough, while bigger or harder-to-see systems are surveyed on site.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a dated report with photos, listing the work and any areas we couldn’t reach.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
A trap clean removes the grease in the trap and that may solve a slow drain caused by the trap. A blockage deeper in the drains needs a drainage specialist.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on, so it does not spread.
Does the report say when we need you again?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
How much notice do you need?
Book as early as you can for planned work, especially if the next clean or test is due soon. Emergencies are different, because our line is open 24/7.
Honest limits
A few issues sit outside what this work can do:
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- A trap undersized for the amount of cooking
- Blockages further down the drainage network
Not sure which it is? You can give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email and we’ll tell you honestly before booking.

Grease trap cleaning in Pevensey Bay: local notes
According to Food Standards Agency records, there are about 3 pubs, bars and clubs within about 1.5 miles of central Pevensey Bay. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. It’s Wealden council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Pevensey Bay. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Keeping a record of deep cleans and grease trap visits helps at inspection time.
Where a church or community hall near St Wilfrid's Church Pevensey Bay, or anywhere in Pevensey Bay, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. Eastbourne District General Hospital, about 4.1 miles south-west, is the nearest hospital to Pevensey Bay; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times. A summer deep clean suits schools such as Pevensey and Westham CofE Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
Day-to-day cleaning is something your team can do: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, and that’s where we come in.
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 they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
