Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Kitchens in Stubbings get their food hygiene inspections from Windsor and Maidenhead council. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.

How we handle grease trap cleaning in Stubbings

A grease trap is the kitchen drain’s first line of protection. Kept clean, it does its job quietly, but neglected, it causes blockages and smells. Routine cleaning keeps it in good working order. If you’re dealing with foul odours from the grease trap and a full, neglected grease trap, we can put it right, from inline grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and restaurants and takeaways onwards.

For a kitchen in or near Stubbings, 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.

The report is your system’s health record: a dated account with pictures of everything we did. Grease extract cleans are also certificated to TR19® Grease through the BESCA VHE portal and sits alongside the report.

What staff can safely do

Staff cleaning and specialist work aren’t the same thing. A daily filter wipe and a weekly filter wash keep grease down at the front of the system, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.

Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

What a clean will not put right

In fairness, there are a few things this work won’t fix:

  • Plumbing leaks around the sink
  • Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
  • Broken pipework below ground

If in doubt, ring 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will say what we think before you book.

Where we work

  • School and care home kitchens
  • Restaurants and takeaways
  • Kitchen waste pipes
  • Inline grease traps
  • Under-sink grease traps
  • Pot wash sinks

What we are called out for in Stubbings

Hot washing-up water keeps grease liquid for a while. Once it cools, it sets, often in the trap or the pipe beyond.

Clients typically contact us when they notice something like this:

  • An under-sink trap that keeps filling up
  • A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
  • A slow-draining kitchen sink
  • A bad smell from the sinks or drains

If you run a care home or healthcare kitchen near Stubbings (the nearest hospital is St Mark's Hospital, about 1.4 miles east), a grease trap on a set schedule avoids a blocked drain mid-service.

Questions to ask before you book

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Avoid pouring boiling water down to shift grease
  • Make sure the trap can be reached easily

Between cleans, keep food scraps out of the sink. Sink strainers help catch solids before they reach the trap.

Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Once it’s there, it needs a drainage contractor to clear so prevention is the easier route.

The process

Everything the job needs comes with us, from protective sheeting to tools and access equipment. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes an hour or two in most kitchens, depending on the size and condition of the trap. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Stubbings run smoothly.

  1. We start by finding the trap and checking its inlet and outlet.
  2. We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.
  3. The trap is emptied of grease and food waste.
  4. We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.
  5. Once it’s refitted, water is run through to check it drains, and we take the waste with us.

Before we arrive

  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down
  • Dig out any earlier paperwork for the system
  • Clear loose items from the work area
