When to call us in Sutton at Hone
Oil tipped down the drain instead of being collected fills a grease trap far faster than washing-up. Small amounts soon build up.
Keep an eye out for these warning signs:
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning
- Gurgling drains in the kitchen
- A small trap that fills too quickly
Healthcare kitchens, like those at hospitals such as Darenth Park Hospital (about 2 miles north-east), cook for long hours, so deep cleans and grease trap work are planned around patients’ meals.
Before booking anyone
- Whether the whole system is included, or only the parts that are easy to reach
- What hours they’ll be on site
- Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Where a tenant occupies the premises but the landlord owns the building, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. Someone lets us in at the agreed time and shows us where everything is, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. We agree a date with you, plan the drive to Sutton at Hone and turn up when the site is quiet.
- We locate the trap and check how it’s fitted.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.
Preparing for the visit

Sutton at Hone: your questions answered
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Sutton at Hone?
That’s Dartford council, whose environmental health officers carry out food hygiene inspections in Sutton at Hone. Keep the dates of your last deep clean and grease trap visit with your food safety records, ready if an officer asks.
Can the work in Sutton at Hone be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, nights and weekends are routine for us. The site is handed back ready to open. When you ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos, mention when the site is quiet.
Do you have insurance?
Yes. We carry full insurance and have been trading since 2009.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
Cleaning the trap deals with the grease it holds, and can clear the problem where the trap was the cause. A blockage deeper in the drains needs a drainage specialist.
Are you accredited?
We’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we are fully insured.
Which kinds of sites do you work on?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. We work with hotels, schools, care homes, offices, retail and leisure sites.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a written, dated record with pictures of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, with the emergency line covering every other hour.
When it’s something else
Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we will tell you before we start. It won’t put right:
- Blockages further down the drainage network
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
- Broken pipework below ground
If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711 or email us and we’ll give you a straight answer before you book.

What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- When the work can happen, such as evenings, overnight or weekends
- The scale of the work
- What state the system is in
- How many systems or sites are involved
No two sites are the same, so we price each one individually. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all make a difference.
What we need to know
What to send for a quote:
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
Getting a quote does not take long. Send a few details and photos, and we usually reply with a fixed quote within one working day. Where a survey is needed, we arrange a time that suits the site.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
Staff cleaning does not replace a specialist visit; it supports it. Regular in-house cleaning slows the build-up, but the parts you cannot see still need a specialist at the right interval.
