Grease trap cleaning in Swaile's Green, done properly
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. We empty the built-up grease and food solids, clean the inside and the baffles, and check the trap is working properly. The work covers pot wash sinks, kitchen waste pipes and inline grease traps, and the jobs we see most are a regular cleaning plan for the grease trap and a small trap that fills too quickly.
In rural areas, a kitchen may drain to a private system rather than a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
Insurers, fire officers and environmental health officers all look at records. So every job comes with a written report and photos, plus a TR19® certificate through the BESCA VHE portal where the work is a TR19® Grease clean.

Looking after it afterwards
No system stays clean for ever, but care slows the build-up. A few tips:
- Keep access to the trap clear
- Mention any increase in cooking
- Wipe grease off pans before washing them
- Do not rely on hot water to clear grease
The sinks are ready to use as soon as we’ve finished. Water is run through to check everything flows before we leave.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage down the line.

Why it’s worth doing now in Swaile's Green
A dirty grease trap smells. Rotting food and grease give off foul odours that can reach the kitchen and beyond. A clean trap takes the source away. Out of sight is the usual reason a rural system goes too long without attention.

- Grease setting in the kitchen pipework

FAQs for Swaile's Green
Will you come out to Swaile's Green?
Yes. Swaile's Green is within the area we cover across London and the South East. Photos of the system and directions to the site help us plan the visit.
Which environmental health team covers Swaile's Green?
Kitchens in Swaile's Green are inspected by Rother council’s environmental health officers. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.
What about areas you can’t get to?
We record them on the report, with photos where possible, and we explain what access is needed, such as extra access panels in ductwork.
How long does a grease trap clean take?
Typically, it takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. A large or very full trap takes longer and we will say so when we quote.
How much notice do you need?
That depends on the slot you want and the size of the job. Tell us your preferred dates when you ask for a quote, and if it’s an emergency, call us any time.
What do you do with the waste?
We remove all the waste we take out. None of it goes back into the drains, of course.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find, and we explain the reasoning on the report.
What problems does a full grease trap cause?
Grease escapes into the drains when the trap is full. There it hardens on the pipe walls until they block. Regular cleaning prevents it.
Multi-site and managed buildings
Managing agents often deal with us directly. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works and we will come back with a fixed quote.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We are happy to deal with either side, and the report can go to both.
What grease trap cleaning can’t fix
We’d rather tell you now than book work that won’t help, so here are the limits:
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
- Sewer problems outside the premises
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly.
