About our grease trap cleaning in Walberton
Grease is behind most blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A well-maintained trap keeps them out of the drains. The work covers restaurants and takeaways, inline grease traps and kitchen waste pipes, and the jobs we see most are grease setting in the kitchen pipework and foul odours from the grease trap.
Somewhere as small as Walberton, the kitchens that need a deep clean are typically a pub, a school, a care home or a hall kitchen, wherever there is one. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.
We have been trading since 2009, and we’re a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. We also hold CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001, and we’re fully insured.

What happens if it’s left?
In Walberton, as anywhere, grease trap cleaning is a short, routine visit. A blocked drain is an emergency and normally at the worst moment. Systems in rural buildings are often out of sight and out of mind.
Combining work into one visit or one programme often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.

Fixed quotes for grease trap cleaning in Walberton
Before we fix a price, we need to know a few things. We check:
- The times the site is available
- How many systems or sites are involved
- How easy every part is to reach
- The condition of the system
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. The price is fixed before any work starts.
What to send for a quote
When you contact us, these details help:
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- The times we could work without disrupting the site
- A few general shots of the system
- Close-ups of filters, grilles, hatches or access panels
Photos are the quickest way to a quote: the system from a couple of angles, plus any access panels or hatches. Tell us what kind of site it is and when it’s open, and we can price many jobs without a visit.
In-house cleaning or a specialist?
A few tasks are always specialist work: opening up ductwork, cleaning fans, drop testing fire dampers and measuring grease need training, the right equipment and safe access. Leave those to us.
Away from the kitchen, the in-house job is mainly checking: keeping grilles clear, noting unusual noise or smells and logging filter changes. Cleaning inside ducts and units is specialist work.
The process
There’s very little for your team to do on the day. A contact on site lets us in at the agreed time and points us to the system, and we take it from there. Afterwards, the area is left tidy and the written report follows. If you can send pictures, we can arrive in Walberton knowing what to expect.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- Sinks feeding the trap are taken out of use.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- We refit it, run water through and remove the waste.
Preparing for the visit
- Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Find the previous report, if there is one

Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Walberton
Will you come out to Walberton?
Yes, smaller places are covered as well as towns. Let us know about access, parking and anything unusual about getting there when you book.
Can the work in Walberton be done at night or at weekends?
Yes, we can come after you close and finish before you open. The work in Walberton can fit around your hours. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
Which sectors do you work in?
Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a single café to a large school. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.
How long will the sinks be out of use?
The size and state of the trap make the difference, and you can expect it to take less than an hour for many under-sink units. You will know before the visit.
Where does the grease from the trap go?
We take it away. There’s nothing left for your team to deal with once the clean is done.
How do you keep the site clean during the work?
By covering it before any work starts. We keep the work contained and clean down when we finish.
Is TR19 a legal requirement?
No. TR19® is BESA’s specification, not legislation. The legal duty comes from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005: the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, and TR19® is the benchmark for showing that grease in the extract is under control.
Do you have a 24/7 line?
Yes. There’s a 24/7 emergency line for anything that can’t wait until a planned visit. Ring any time and tell us what’s happened.

What else we do in Walberton
Grease trap cleaning around Walberton
There are about 8 restaurants, cafés and works canteens and about 5 sandwich bars and takeaways across Walberton and its immediate surroundings (about a mile and a half), according to the Food Standards Agency’s register. A grease trap in kitchens like these fills steadily and needs emptying before it overflows. It’s Arun council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Walberton. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. A record of each deep clean helps show the kitchen is kept in order.
Arundel and District Hospital, about 2.5 miles east, is the nearest hospital to Walberton; healthcare kitchens can’t stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times. Hall kitchens near St Mary's Church or elsewhere in Walberton may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean. Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Walberton and Binsted CofE Primary School for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned.

Looking after it afterwards
Think of this as the after-treatment advice, short and simple:
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Use strainers in the sink plugholes
- Keep waste oil out of the drains
- Keep access to the trap clear
The waste we remove leaves with us. Nothing is left for you to dispose of after the visit.
Setting regular cleans takes the guesswork out. The interval is set to suit the trap and the kitchen.
What a clean will not put right
Not every problem is solved by grease trap cleaning, and we’ll tell you before work begins. It does not solve:
- Drains that need jetting rather than trap cleaning
- A grease trap that is too small for the kitchen
- Plumbing leaks around the sink
Not sure which it is? You can phone us on 0345 646 2711, or send details by email and we’ll tell you honestly.
