Grease trap cleaning in Stoke Poges
A grease trap catches fats, oils and grease from the kitchen sinks before they reach the drain. Cooling water lets the grease rise and separate while the water carries on to the drain. Over time, the trap fills up and needs emptying and cleaning. Common call-outs are for an inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning and gurgling drains in the kitchen, across under-sink grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and inline grease traps.
Work in a smaller place like Stoke Poges is planned around your opening hours, and the journey is planned ahead.
A written report with pictures 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.

The process
We work around your opening hours, not the other way round. Most visits are booked for when the area is out of use, such as evenings, overnight, early mornings or weekends. When the team arrives, the work area is protected and the relevant equipment is switched off to cool, and the work takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. Tell us about any gates, ladders or locked plant areas at your site near Stoke Poges when you book.
- We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
- The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
- The trap is reassembled, checked for leaks and the waste taken away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
- Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas

We do not publish a price list, because every site is different. We look at your system first, from photos or on a visit, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
Advice
How we price grease trap cleaning
The quote reflects the site in front of us. We take into account:
- Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The scale of the work
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
The cost depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What to send for a quote
Before you ask for a quote, gather:
- The postcode and the type of business
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Wide photos of the system and the area around it
For a fixed quote, call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and tell us the type of site, your opening hours and roughly what the system looks like. Photos and the last report, if you have one, make the quote quicker. We typically come back within one working day.
What happens if it’s left?
Grease that leaves the kitchen ends up somewhere. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. When a site near Stoke Poges shuts unexpectedly, the people who rely on it notice at once.
Working hours, access and the scale of the site can all change the price. Each of those is built into the quote and give you a fixed price before we start.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease call for the right kit, training and safe access. Leave those to us.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping canopies, washing grease filters and recording it in a log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Stoke Poges
Multi-site operators often want one contractor and one number. We cover South East England and London, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
Records are where multi-site compliance often slips. Each visit produces a dated report with pictures, so you can show an insurer or inspector what was done at each site.
How the job changes from site to site
Baffles and outlets
The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. Grease clings to them so they’re cleaned every time.
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They hold more than under-sink units but still need regular emptying.
Questions from Stoke Poges
Can a school kitchen in Stoke Poges be done out of term time?
Yes. Half-terms and the summer break are the natural time for school work. There are about 7 schools, colleges and universities on the FSA’s food hygiene register within about 1.5 miles of Stoke Poges. Just phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos with your term dates and we will plan around them.
Can you work in Stoke Poges outside opening hours?
Yes. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends. That way a site in Stoke Poges doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Do you work in Stoke Poges?
Yes. Our technicians work in Stoke Poges, as part of our area across London and the South East.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. How often depends on use and condition and the report sets out why.
Who is the responsible person?
The law calls them the responsible person. That is generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and where several people have control, each can have duties. If you’re not sure, check your lease and fire risk assessment.
How much notice do you need?
The more notice, the better, especially for out-of-hours work. We usually quote within one working day, and there’s a 24/7 line for emergencies.
How long does a grease trap clean take?
As a guide, it takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. Bigger or overdue traps need more time and we will say so when we quote.
Are you accredited?
Our accreditations are CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. The Vent Hygiene Elite scheme is run by BESCA and audited independently.
Commercial kitchens in Stoke Poges
Look up Stoke Poges on the FSA’s food hygiene register and you will find about 12 cafés, restaurants and staff canteens within roughly a mile and a half of the centre of Stoke Poges. Kitchens like these wash fat, oil and grease down the sink every day, and a grease trap is what stops it reaching the sewer. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Stoke Poges. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
School kitchens, at schools like The Stoke Poges School for example, typically have their deep cleans and grease trap work done while the canteen is closed. If you run event catering at a historic house or estate in the area (Windsor Castle is about 4.3 miles south), a deep clean before or after the busy season is worth planning. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Wexham Park Hospital about 1 mile south-east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.

Looking after it afterwards
Good habits slow the build-up between visits. A few tips:
- Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps
- Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Keep access to the trap clear
Anything we notice beyond the trap, like a slow drain downstream, is pointed out. It may need a drainage specialist to look further.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
