What happens on the day
Your trading hours come first. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. Once we’re in, the area is sheeted and anything that has to be off is turned off and cooled, and the work takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Before the visit, a few photos of the system and how to reach it help us plan the work in Sandhurst.
- First, we locate the grease trap and look at the pipework around it.
- Nothing drains into the trap while it’s open.
- The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
- 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.
Preparing for the visit
- Mention any locked doors, roof access or ceiling voids
- Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
- Clear the space around the work

Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Sandhurst
We clean grease traps for kitchens in Sandhurst, whether it’s an under-sink unit or a larger inline trap. We come when the sinks aren’t needed so washing up is not interrupted. The work covers school and care home kitchens, under-sink grease traps and pot wash sinks, and people most often call us about washing-up water that won’t drain away and an under-sink trap that keeps filling up.
Around a town like Sandhurst, the kitchens we deep clean tend to be pubs, restaurants, takeaways and school or care home kitchens. All of them collect grease behind and under equipment.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

We will always give you a straight diagnosis, so here’s what this work cannot put right:

- Grease set hard in the drain run
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber

- Inline grease traps
- Pot wash sinks
- School and care home kitchens

Common problems we fix in Sandhurst
Waste cooking oil poured down the sink overloads the trap fast. Even small amounts add up.
Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:
- An overdue grease trap
- Washing-up water that will not drain away
- Gurgling from the sink waste
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
Hall kitchens near St George's Church or elsewhere in Sandhurst may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

Leave it or put it right?
A smelly, overflowing trap attracts pests. A clean trap is less of an attraction as part of a clean kitchen. Dealt with now, it’s a planned visit around your hours rather than a callout when the site needs to be open.

What the work involves, part by part
Inline grease traps
Several sinks may drain into one inline trap. That means more grease, so regular cleaning matters.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are compact units fitted below the kitchen sink. They fill quickly, so they need frequent emptying.
For landlords and multi-site operators
For anyone managing more than one site, we can schedule visits across all of them on one quote. Each site gets its own report and photos, so records stay tidy.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party, and the report can go to both.
Aftercare tips
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. Our tips:
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Let us know if the kitchen gets busier
- Keep access to the trap clear
If we spot problems beyond the trap, such as a drain that still runs slowly, we will tell you. That may need a drainage contractor to investigate.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.

Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other.
