Leave it or put it right?
Grease that gets past the trap does not disappear. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. In a smaller place like Virginia Water, a site that has to close is felt quickly.

Grease trap cleaning in Virginia Water, done properly
In Virginia Water, we time grease trap visits so the sinks are not needed. The trap is emptied, cleaned and checked and remove the waste. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. The work covers under-sink grease traps, kitchen waste pipes and inline grease traps, and the jobs we see most are washing-up water that won’t drain away and a bad smell from the sinks or drains.

In-house cleaning or a specialist?
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A dated log of in-house cleaning and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.
Your own staff can handle the daily basics: wiping down canopy surfaces, cleaning filters and keeping a simple log. Inside the ducts, risers and fan is specialist work, which is where we come in.
Part by part
Baffles and outlets
We check the inlet, outlet and baffles at each clean so water flows freely.
Under-sink grease traps
Under-sink traps are compact units fitted below the kitchen sink. Their small size means they fill fast, so they need frequent emptying.

- We ask for the sinks that drain into the trap not to be used.

- We clean the chambers, baffles and connections.

Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Virginia Water
Every site gets its own quote. These are the things that affect it:
- Working hours and out-of-hours timing
- Site requirements such as sign-in and permits
- The condition we find in the survey
- One-off work versus a regular cycle
Leaving it longer rarely makes the work cheaper. Problems in a system tend to grow, which can make the next visit longer. If you are unsure, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email for straight advice and a fixed quote.

Photos and a few facts are often enough to price the work. Useful things to send:

- The postcode and the type of business
- Detail shots of panels, filters and grilles
- Where the plant sits or the system leaves the building, such as a roof or outside wall
