Grease trap cleaning for kitchens and businesses in Sutton Scotney
A neglected grease trap stops doing its job. Further down the pipe, the grease cools and hardens and the result is blocked drains and bad smells. A trap that’s cleaned regularly keeps grease where it belongs. Typical jobs include an under-sink unit that needs regular emptying and gurgling from the sink waste, across school and care home kitchens, pot wash sinks and restaurants and takeaways.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. We’re also a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

Signs you need grease trap cleaning in Sutton Scotney
The more a kitchen cooks and washes up, the quicker the trap fills. Traps sized for lighter use can fill very quickly when trade picks up.
These are the problems we see most often:
- A grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time
- Scheduled grease trap emptying
- Sinks that drain slowly
- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
A deep clean in Sutton Scotney covers walls, floors, ceilings and equipment, done while the kitchen is shut.

Advice
What affects the quote in Sutton Scotney
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We look at:
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The condition we find in the survey
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The times the site is available
Kitchens, offices, schools and hospitals are all priced the same way: how much there is, how we reach it, what state it’s in and when we can work. Ask for a fixed quote and we’ll explain each part.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Any previous report or certificate
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
For grease trap cleaning in Sutton Scotney, ring 0345 646 2711, or email photos. Tell us what kind of premises it is and when it’s open, and send pictures or your last report if you can. A fixed quote typically follows within one working day.
What staff can safely do
If your staff spot something between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, it’s best reported rather than tackled in-house. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Some jobs should never be done in-house: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Sutton Scotney
