Grease trap cleaning in Tyburn
In Tyburn, we time grease trap visits so the sinks aren’t needed. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked, and the waste is taken away. It can be booked on its own or alongside other kitchen work. The work covers inline grease traps, restaurants and takeaways and kitchen waste pipes, and common reasons people get in touch are an under-sink trap that keeps filling up and gurgling drains in the kitchen.
Fat, oil and grease poured down drains helps form fatbergs, and London’s sewers have made the news for them more than once. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly keeps fat out of the drains.
Nothing is signed off by word of mouth: a written report, dated and illustrated with pictures, plus a certificate through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal when the work is a TR19® Grease clean. It shows what was done and what, if anything, couldn’t be reached.

Why act early in Tyburn
In Tyburn, as anywhere, grease trap cleaning is a short, routine visit. Waiting for a blockage turns it into an urgent problem and typically at the worst moment. Planning ahead in Tyburn lets you pick a quiet night rather than lose a busy one.
Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. Size, access, the condition of the system and when we can work all make a difference.

- Evenings, overnight and weekends, plus 24/7 emergency callout
- We diagnose before we treat
- Fully insured
- Every visit written up, with photos

How we price grease trap cleaning
The survey tells us what the work involves. We look at:
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
What you pay depends on how big the system is, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before we start, so you know where you stand.
What to send for a quote
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
- Any previous report or certificate
- The postcode and the type of business
- Anything you’ve noticed, such as smells, noise, drips or poor airflow
The quickest way to a quote is to send photos: wide shots of the system, close-ups of anything that worries you and how we’d get to it. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Tyburn and across Greater London. Larger estates can be phased building by building to keep disruption down.
From a single site to a large estate, the standard is the same: diagnosis, a fixed price, work booked around your hours and a written report with pictures.
What grease trap cleaning looks like in Tyburn
The FSA’s data shows about 162 pubs, bars and clubs and about 247 hotels and guest houses registered across Tyburn and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half). Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Night work is normal for London kitchens, and the kitchen is handed back ready for the morning. Kitchens in Tyburn get their food hygiene inspections from Westminster council. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.
A summer deep clean suits schools such as Hampden Gurney CofE Primary School, as the kitchen can be stripped back with no lunches to serve. Fortius Clinic, about 0.5 miles north-east, is the nearest hospital to Tyburn; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

Tyburn: your questions answered
Can the work in Tyburn be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. The site is handed back ready to open. Let us know the hours you are closed and we’ll book within them.
Do you clean school kitchens in Tyburn in the summer holidays?
Yes. The holidays are the usual time for school work. With about 78 schools and colleges on the FSA’s register within roughly a mile and a half of Tyburn, it pays to plan holiday dates ahead. Send us your term dates when you phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email, and we will fit the work in.
Will cleaning the grease trap fix a blocked drain?
Cleaning the trap deals with the grease it holds, and can clear the problem where the trap was the cause. Blockages further down the drain, or damaged pipework, need a drainage contractor.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
Under-sink and inline grease traps, and larger interceptors. Each one is emptied, cleaned and checked whatever the size.
Where does the grease from the trap go?
The waste leaves with us. You are not left with anything to dispose of when we go.
How much time does a grease trap clean need?
A typical clean takes less than an hour for many under-sink units including checking it drains. We plan the visit around your service.
Who is the responsible person?
In the words of the Fire Safety Order 2005, it’s the responsible person. That’s generally the employer or the person in control of the premises, and in shared buildings more than one person can have duties. Your lease and fire risk assessment should make it clear.
Do you recommend a next date?
Yes. The interval depends on how much the system is used and what we find and the report sets out why.
When to call us in Tyburn
For a kitchen in Tyburn or anywhere else, the trap is out of sight and out of mind. Hidden under a sink or in a floor it’s often left until there’s a problem.
What we are most often called out for:
- A regular cleaning plan for the grease trap
- Drains that gurgle and bubble
- An overdue grease trap
- A blocked kitchen drain caused by grease
Hall kitchens near Church of the Annunciation or elsewhere in Tyburn may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

The process
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 the rest is down to us. Before we leave, the area is tidied and the paperwork follows. In a London area like Tyburn, parking, loading and building access are planned before the day of the work.
- We agree a time when the sinks are not needed.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
- The inside, baffles and outlet are cleaned.
- The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.
Before we arrive
- Clear the space around the work
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Arrange a key holder or contact on site
Ask for a quote
To get a fixed quote, call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form with the site type, your trading hours and a short description of the system. A few pictures and your last certificate or report help a lot. We typically come back within one working day.
Related advice
Between visits
A little care between visits keeps the system in better shape. We recommend:
- Let us know if the kitchen gets busier
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Don’t wait for a blockage to book a clean
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
If we spot problems beyond the trap, such as a drain that still runs slowly, we’ll tell you. That may need a drainage contractor to investigate.
Grease that gets past the trap sets in the drains. Once it’s there, it needs a drainage contractor to clear so prevention is the easier route.
When it’s something else
Grease trap cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before work begins. It doesn’t solve:
- Blockages in the public sewer beyond the property
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
- Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
Not sure which it is? You can ring 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we will tell you honestly.
