How we price grease trap cleaning
There’s no set price list, because sites vary so much. The quote depends on:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Travel, parking and unloading
- The number of sites or systems
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, and a neglected system can mean more work. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call 0345 646 2711 or email us and we will give you an honest view 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:
- The site address and the type of premises
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
- Your last certificate, test record or report
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Big or complicated sites, and systems that are hard to see in photos, get a survey first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Stoke D'Abernon
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. We empty the built-up grease and food solids, clean the inside and the baffles, and check the trap is working properly. If you have a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease and drains that gurgle and bubble, we can put it right, from under-sink grease traps, inline grease traps and school and care home kitchens onwards.
Work in a small place like Stoke D'Abernon starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
Accreditations are easy to claim and worth checking. We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, with full insurance on top.

Why it’s worth doing now in Stoke D'Abernon

Keeping the system healthy
Results last longer with the right care. We suggest:
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Never pour used oil down the sink
The sinks are ready to use as soon as we’ve finished. We run water through to check it drains before we leave.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage down the line.
What happens on the day
A visit follows the same order every time: sheeting and protection first, make the system safe, do the work, clear away and leave you the report. The visit itself takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. If the van will struggle with a lane or gateway near Stoke D'Abernon, 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.
- We take out the layer of fat, oil and grease and any solids.
- 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
- Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
- Let us know about permits to work or site inductions
- Let us know how we reach the system, including roofs, risers and plant rooms

Stoke D'Abernon: your questions answered

Who would carry out a food hygiene inspection at a kitchen in Stoke D'Abernon?

How far ahead should we book?
Earlier is better, particularly for night and weekend visits. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
Anything that proves the system is maintained: reports, certificates, pictures and your own cleaning or check logs. One maintenance log per site keeps it simple.
