How we handle grease trap cleaning in Wexham Street
A clean trap means flowing drains and no foul smells. We empty the built-up grease and food solids and the chambers and baffles cleaned and the trap checked before we leave. If you have a slow-draining kitchen sink and drains that gurgle and bubble, we can help, from pot wash sinks, kitchen waste pipes and school and care home kitchens onwards.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, so keeping fat out with a working grease trap matters even more.
The paperwork matters as much as the work. You get a written report with photos after every visit, covering the work done, any areas we couldn’t access and a recommended next date. File it in your maintenance log so it’s to hand when an insurer or inspector asks.

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.
Baffles and outlets
Every clean includes the baffles, inlet and outlet so the trap works as it should.
Leave it or put it right?

Looking after it afterwards
To keep the system working properly between visits:
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
- Report slow or smelly sinks early
- Keep strainers in every sink
- Mention any increase in cooking
You will get our view on how often the trap needs cleaning. That depends on how quickly it filled and how busy the kitchen is.
If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Getting it cleaned now can stop a full blockage down the line.
Managing agents and facilities teams in Wexham Street
We regularly work with managing agents. Send the address, what’s needed and how access works, and we’ll send a fixed quote.
We also work for facilities teams across offices, schools and healthcare in Wexham Street and across Slough. Larger estates can be phased building by building around the people who use them.
The process
We are used to working while the site is closed. A lot of visits happen overnight or at weekends, so a kitchen or building can carry on as usual the next day. The visit itself takes an hour or so for an under-sink trap, longer for a larger unit. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Wexham Street run smoothly.
- We agree a time when the sinks aren’t needed.
- The trap is opened up and checked.
- We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
- We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
- We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.
How to prepare
- Agree a time when the area can be out of use
- Plan for cooking equipment or plant to be off before we arrive
- Have your last certificate or report to hand

There’s no standard price list, because no two systems are the same. Instead, we look at your site first, from photos or a survey, and then send you a fixed quote. To get going, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos.

What staff can safely do
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.
If your staff spot something between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We will take a look and give you a fixed quote.
Grease trap cleaning around Wexham Street
Food Standards Agency data counts about 11 restaurants, cafés and works canteens within about 1.5 miles of central Wexham Street. Each of them sends fat, oil and grease towards the drain, which is why grease traps need regular emptying. Environmental health officers from Buckinghamshire council inspect food businesses in Wexham Street. An inspection covers the structure of the kitchen as well as the food. Having the dates of the last deep clean to hand saves digging for them on the day.
Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like Khalsa Secondary Academy for instance, to have the grease trap emptied and the kitchen deep cleaned. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Wexham Park Hospital about 0.8 miles south, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. Hall kitchens near St Andrew's Church Centre or elsewhere in Wexham Street may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.
