About our grease trap cleaning in Weedon
Grease trap cleaning keeps the drains running and the smells away. The fat, oil, grease and solids are taken out and the chambers and baffles cleaned and the trap checked before we leave. Common call-outs are for gurgling from the sink waste and a bad smell from the sinks or drains, across under-sink grease traps, inline grease traps and restaurants and takeaways.
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.
We have been trading since 2009, as a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease. CHAS, SafeContractor and ISO 9001 are in place too, and we carry full insurance.

How we price grease trap cleaning
A fixed price needs a few facts first. We check:
- Access, including roofs, risers and ceiling voids
- The scale of the work
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The times the site is available
What you pay depends on the size of the system, what state it’s in and how easy it is to reach. You get a fixed price before any work starts, so there are no surprises.
What we need to know
To speed up the quote, please include:
- Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
- How we’d reach plant on a roof or in a plant room
- A few general shots of the system
- Where the site is and what kind of site it is
We don’t publish a price list, because every site is different. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then give you a fixed quote. To get going, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form.
Staff cleaning versus specialist work
For ventilation and air handling systems, in-house care is mostly about checks: clear grilles, a log of filter changes and reporting anything odd. The inside of ducts and units needs a specialist.
In-house cleaning and specialist cleaning do different jobs. Wiping filters daily and washing them weekly keeps the visible parts in order, but they don’t reach the grease that builds up further in. That part needs specialist access and equipment.
Your questions about grease trap cleaning in Weedon
Which council inspects kitchens in Weedon?
The local authority for Weedon is Buckinghamshire council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Do you work at weekends in Weedon?
Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. That way a site in Weedon doesn’t have to lose a day’s trading. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.
What paperwork should we keep on file?
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.
What happens if a grease trap isn’t cleaned?
A full trap can’t catch any more grease. It then sets in the drains, causing blockages and smells and can end up adding to sewer blockages.
What is TR19?
It’s the industry benchmark for cleaning ventilation and kitchen extract systems, written by BESA. It sets out inspection, cleaning and record keeping, and it takes a risk-based approach.
Who has the legal duty for fire safety?
The Fire Safety Order 2005 calls them the responsible person: often the employer, owner or occupier. Landlords, facilities managers and managing agents can also hold responsibility.
What do you do to protect the area?
We cover floors and nearby surfaces with sheeting before work begins, and anything we remove is contained. Before we leave, we tidy up and clean down.
Is TR19 cleaning required by law?
No. The law sets the duty; TR19® is the benchmark used to show it’s met. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person has to manage fire risk, and without records, many insurers may refuse or reduce a claim.
Grease trap cleaning around Weedon
The Food Standards Agency lists about 4 bars, pubs and nightclubs as registered food businesses in Weedon and the streets around it, up to about 1.5 miles out. Wherever food is prepared there, a periodic deep clean and a clear grease trap keep things in order. Weedon is about 40 miles from central London, well within the area we cover across London and the South East. We work evenings, overnight and at weekends, so the visit fits around the site. It’s Buckinghamshire council that sends environmental health officers to food businesses in Weedon. The state of floors, drains and hard-to-reach corners all feeds into the inspection. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Hall kitchens near Old School Room Chapel or elsewhere in Weedon 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 Old School Room Chapel for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned. Tindal Centre, about 2.4 miles south, is the nearest hospital to Weedon; healthcare kitchens cannot stop cooking, so deep cleans are worked around meal times.

Leave it or put it right?
Pouring hot water or chemicals down a slow drain is a common quick fix. That only moves the grease further down the pipe to set somewhere harder to reach. The lasting fix starts with the trap. If the system at a site near Weedon fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.
Putting the work off seldom saves money. Build-up, wear and faults tend to get worse, not better, which can make the next visit longer. If you’re not sure what’s needed, call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form for straight advice and a fixed quote.

What else we do in Weedon
How the job changes from site to site
Inline grease traps
Inline traps are fitted into the drain line. They hold more than under-sink units but still need regular emptying.
School, care home and staff kitchens
Drains in care settings need to keep flowing. Visits are planned between meals.
What we do, step by step
Before we leave, we walk the area with whoever is on site. Anything we couldn’t reach or that needs attention is pointed out there and then, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. The timing of a visit to Weedon is set by you, and the travel is our side of the planning.
- First, we find the trap and look at its connections.
- We make sure nothing drains into the trap.
- We empty out the fat, oil, grease and solids.
- The chambers and baffles are cleaned.
- The trap is refitted, tested with water and the waste taken away.
Before we arrive
- Tell us the best time to work, such as after service or at a weekend
- Tell us about site rules, permits or sign-in
- Find the previous report, if there is one
Getting a quote
Photos are enough for some jobs, while others need a look on site. Larger sites, and anything hidden behind walls, ceilings or floors, are normally surveyed first. Either way, the quote is fixed before any work is booked.
