Grease Trap Cleaning in Tisman's Common
Grease trap cleaning for Tisman's Common, from a team that has been trading since 2009. Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus a 24/7 emergency line.

- A larger grease trap that needs emptying
Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Where a system serves more than one tenant, such as a shared riser, it helps to agree who arranges the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept on a regular cycle.
About our grease trap cleaning in Tisman's Common
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out, clean the inside and the baffles, and check the trap is working properly. If you are dealing with a routine grease trap service and gurgling drains in the kitchen, we can help, from under-sink grease traps, inline grease traps and school and care home kitchens onwards.
Somewhere as small as Tisman's Common, the kitchens that need a deep clean are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Wherever there is one, it needs its grease trap and hard-to-reach areas kept clean.
It’s worth checking any contractor’s accreditations. Ours are BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite membership, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, plus CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Tisman's Common
Can you get to a site in Tisman's Common?
Yes, Tisman's Common is part of our area, however small the site. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Which council inspects kitchens in Tisman's Common?
In Tisman's Common, it’s Horsham council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Photos from a deep clean are a simple record of what was done and when.
Do you offer emergency callouts?
Yes, 24/7. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.
Where does the grease from the trap go?
We remove all the waste we take out. None of it goes back into the drains, of course.
Which records should we keep?
Visit reports, certificates and your in-house cleaning logs. Insurers, fire officers and EHOs may all ask to see them, so keep them where they can be found quickly.
Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?
It depends where the blockage is. A full trap is a common cause, and cleaning it can help, but blockages further along need a drainage contractor.
What happens if a grease trap isn’t cleaned?
Grease escapes into the drains when the trap is full. There it hardens on the pipe walls until they block. Keeping the trap clean stops that happening.
What if parts of the system cannot be reached?
We never leave them off the paperwork. You will know exactly which parts weren’t reached and why, along with a quote to put access in.
Common problems we fix in Tisman's Common
For a kitchen in Tisman's Common or anywhere else, the trap is out of sight and out of mind. Tucked away under the sink or below the floor, it’s often ignored until something goes wrong.
If you notice any of these, it’s worth a diagnosis:
- An inline trap or interceptor due for cleaning
- Grease setting in the kitchen pipework
- An overdue grease trap
- Gurgling from the sink waste
Where a church or community hall near St John the Baptist, or anywhere in Tisman's Common, has a kitchen used by volunteers, a periodic deep clean keeps it ready for the next event.
What your quote should include
- What hours they’ll be on site
- How areas they cannot reach will be recorded
- What paperwork you get at the end
- If they look at the system before pricing
What affects the cost of grease trap cleaning
We do not publish a price list, because no two systems are the same. The quote depends on:
- The times the site is available
- The condition of the system
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and access to every part of it. We give you a fixed price before we start, so there are no surprises.
Helping us quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- When the site is open and when it’s quiet
- Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
- The roof, plant room or outside wall the system runs to
- Problems your staff have spotted
If you need grease trap cleaning in Tisman's Common, give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or email us. Let us know the site type and the opening hours, plus photos or the previous report if they’re to hand. We usually send a fixed quote within one working day.
What your team can do, and what needs us
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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.
When your team notices a problem between visits, such as dripping grease, a noisy fan, a smell or a filter that will not come clean, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We can diagnose it and quote.
What the work involves, part by part
Inline grease traps
Access to an inline trap can be in a floor or cupboard. We check how to reach it before the visit.
Restaurant and takeaway kitchens
Kitchens that fry and wash up all day fill their traps quickly. They often need the most frequent cleaning.

The process
When we arrive, we check the system against the survey or the pictures you sent. Anything unexpected is raised with you before we go further. From there, it takes a short visit for a small trap and longer for an inline unit or interceptor. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Tisman's Common knowing what to expect.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
- Grease and solids are removed from the trap.
- We clean every part of the inside.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.
How to prepare
- Have your last certificate or report to hand
- Let us know about parking and loading
- Make sure equipment near the work can be switched off and left to cool
