Grease trap cleaning in Shedfield
Fats, oils and grease are the main cause of blocked kitchen drains. Down the line, they can add to fatbergs in the sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps them out of the drains. We are often asked to deal with an interceptor full of grease and solids and a small trap that fills too quickly, on restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and pot wash sinks.
For a kitchen in or near Shedfield, 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.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. That’s why every job is written up in a report with photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Managing agents and facilities teams in Shedfield
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: a survey first, a fixed quote, the work timed around the site and a report with photos.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
What a clean won’t put right
Grease trap cleaning can’t fix everything, and we’d rather say so up front. It doesn’t solve:
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- A leaking sink waste or trap connection
If you’re not sure, just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

How the job changes from site to site
Baffles and outlets
The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. They gather grease and debris so they’re cleaned every time.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Kitchens that serve set mealtimes fill their traps more steadily. A regular interval suits them well.
What happens on the day
Protection comes first: sheeting goes over floors and surfaces close to the work. Then we make the system safe and start. The work on site takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap, and we clear up before we go. A few pictures of the system help us make the most of a visit to a place like Shedfield.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
Preparing for the visit
- Move anything stored near the system
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
- Tell us where we can park and unload

Aftercare tips
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Book trap cleans at a set interval
- Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
- Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
Collect waste cooking oil separately rather than pouring it down the sink, and the trap will stay cleaner for longer. It makes a real difference.
A trap that is left too long stops catching grease. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and saves a call-out for a blocked drain.
Shedfield kitchens: local notes
The FSA’s food hygiene register includes about 7 pubs and bars in and around Shedfield, up to about a mile and a half out. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. In Shedfield, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Winchester City council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A cleaning log that includes deep cleans and grease trap visits shows the work is planned.
Where a church or community hall near Church of St John, or anywhere in Shedfield, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event. A summer deep clean suits schools such as St John the Baptist Church of England Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Knowle Hospital about 2.4 miles south, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.

Shedfield: your questions answered
Can the work in Shedfield be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. Your customers, staff or residents in Shedfield needn’t be disturbed. Just ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email with your opening times and we’ll plan around them.
Do you work in villages like Shedfield?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, Shedfield included. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Do we need to close while you work?
Not normally. Out-of-hours visits keep the disruption down. Bigger sites can be done in stages to keep things running.
What does a grease trap clean cost?
Every trap is different, so we quote once we know what you have. You get a fixed quote, normally within one working day.
Which sectors do you work in?
All kinds of commercial and public premises: from restaurants, pubs and hotels to schools, hospitals, care homes, offices, shops and food production sites. We fit the work around how the site operates.
Can you come out in an emergency?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
Can you clear our blocked drains as well?
Our service covers the grease trap itself. If the drain beyond the trap is blocked or damaged, we’ll tell you and suggest a drainage contractor.
What your team can do, and what needs us
Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but grease that has passed the filters is out of reach. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
Good housekeeping makes our visits easier, not unnecessary. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but hidden parts of the system still need specialist attention.
What happens if it’s left?
For a kitchen in Shedfield, a regular grease trap clean is a small, planned job. A blocked drain is an emergency, often at a busy time. Somewhere as small as Shedfield, losing a kitchen or building to a fault is felt by everyone who uses it.
The price reflects the work, not guesswork. That is why we survey first, from photos or on site, and the price is agreed before work begins.
