Part by part
Under-sink grease traps
Small grease traps sit under the sink. They fill quickly and need regular cleaning.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Kitchens with fixed mealtimes build up grease more predictably. A regular interval suits them well.
How we handle grease trap cleaning in Sutton-under-Brailes
Grease traps sit between the sinks and the drain, holding back fats, oils and grease. Cooling water lets the grease rise and separate, and clean water flows on. Over time, the trap fills up and needs emptying and cleaning. The work covers inline grease traps, restaurants and takeaways and under-sink grease traps, and the jobs we see most are foul odours from the grease trap and an inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning.
Work in a small place like Sutton-under-Brailes starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.
Our accreditations include CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, trading since 2009.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
A few tasks are always specialist work: entering ducts, working on fans, testing dampers and taking grease readings need training, the right equipment and safe access. That is our job.
Multi-site and managed buildings
When the building owner and the occupier are different, it’s worth checking the lease for who maintains the systems. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Landlords, managing agents and facilities managers book us, not only the businesses that use the systems. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.

If you look after a hall kitchen near St Thomas a Becket Church or anywhere in Sutton-under-Brailes, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

Sutton-under-Brailes: your questions answered
Can the work in Sutton-under-Brailes be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you’re closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you offer grease trap cleaning in Sutton-under-Brailes?
Yes. Our area runs across London and the South East, Sutton-under-Brailes included. You can call us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and tell us what needs doing.
How regularly does a grease trap need emptying?
That depends on the trap and the kitchen. A small trap fills more quickly than a large one and the busier the kitchen, the faster it fills. We will recommend a schedule once we’ve seen it.
Are you insured?
Yes. We are fully insured, and the details are available on request.
What do you do with what you remove?
It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes, always. The report is dated and includes photos, plus a certificate via the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal for TR19® Grease cleans. Keep it in your maintenance log.
How much notice do you need?
It depends on the time you need and how big the job is. Mention your preferred dates with your enquiry, and for anything urgent, ring our 24/7 emergency line.
Can you set up regular visits?
Yes, of course. Send details of the systems and how they’re used and we will propose a schedule with a fixed quote.
How the visit works
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 anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Somewhere like Sutton-under-Brailes, lanes, gates and parking are worth mentioning in advance.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
How to prepare
- Tell us where we can park and unload
- Mention any sign-in, permit or induction we need
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend

Advice
Why it’s worth doing now in Sutton-under-Brailes
A full grease trap lets grease through to the drains. There it sets and narrows the pipe until water cannot get through. Cleaning the trap regularly is far easier than clearing a blocked drain. A planned visit to Sutton-under-Brailes is easier to arrange than an emergency callout.
