How we handle grease trap cleaning in Pizien Well
No two traps are quite the same. Under-sink traps are compact and need frequent attention, while inline traps and interceptors hold more. We look at the trap, how much the kitchen uses it and how quickly it fills before suggesting how often it needs cleaning. If you have gurgling drains in the kitchen and foul odours from the grease trap, we can put it right.
For a kitchen in or near Pizien Well, the visit is planned ahead, around opening times and the journey, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
A written report with photos follows every visit, so there’s a dated record of the work. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

How the job changes from site to site
School, care home and staff kitchens
In schools, grease traps can be cleaned when the kitchen is closed or after lunch service.
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They’re larger than under-sink traps but still fill up.
Leave it or put it right?
Pests are drawn to grease and food waste. Keeping the trap clean removes something they’re looking for, alongside good kitchen hygiene. In a small place like Pizien Well, a system that fails can take a site out of use.
You will not find a price list here, because each job is priced on what it involves. Call for a fixed quote, and we will talk you through it.

What else we do in Pizien Well
The process
The first job on site is protection: floors, worktops and anything near the work are covered. Then we make the system safe and start. It takes less than an hour for many under-sink units, and the area is cleaned down before we leave. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Pizien Well, let us know and we will plan around it.
- We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
- The sinks feeding the trap are kept out of use while we work.
- Built-up fat, oil and grease is removed from the trap.
- The inside, baffles and pipe connections are cleaned.
- Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.
Getting ready for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions

Related advice
Between visits
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Keep the grease trap on a regular cleaning schedule
- 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.
Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage down the line.
Grease trap cleaning in Pizien Well: local notes
The Food Standards Agency lists about 5 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses across Pizien Well and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever they cook, the kitchen and its drains need the same attention as a restaurant’s. In Pizien Well, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Maidstone council. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Oakwood Hospital about 3.9 miles east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Old Soar Manor is about 3.5 miles west), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning. For schools such as Wateringbury Church of England Primary School, deep cleans and grease trap work are usually booked for the holidays.

Questions from Pizien Well
Do you work in school kitchens around Pizien Well out of term?
Yes, holiday work suits schools best. Around Pizien Well, the Food Standards Agency lists about 6 schools and colleges with registered kitchens within a mile and a half or so. Tell us your holiday dates and we’ll book the visit for when the site is empty.
Will you come out to Pizien Well?
Yes. Pizien Well 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.
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 so you know the cost up front.
Do you take the waste away?
We remove all the waste we take out. It is not poured back down the drain at any point.

What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
The report shows them clearly. Often the fix is extra access, such as new panels in ductwork, and we can fit those.
Will I get paperwork for my records?
Yes. It’s your proof that the work was done: a written, dated record with photos of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.
What should go in our maintenance log?
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.
Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Pizien Well
The price is fixed before any work begins. It’s based on:
- Parking and loading at the site
- What state the system is in
- The scale of the work
- Whether we need access equipment or extra panels
One small site or a whole estate, the quote is built the same way: the work involved, the access and the timing. You will have a fixed price before we start.
What we need to know
When you contact us, it’s useful to have:
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your last certificate, test record or report
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
What a clean won’t put right
We’ll always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work can’t put right:
- Broken pipework below ground
- Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll say what we think.
