About our grease trap cleaning in White Waltham
Grease is behind most blocked kitchen drains. Further on, grease can build into fatbergs in the sewer. A grease trap that’s emptied and cleaned regularly holds them back. Typical jobs include a larger grease trap that needs emptying and a small trap that fills too quickly, on pot wash sinks, school and care home kitchens and under-sink grease traps.
Rural kitchens may drain to a septic tank or a private drain rather than straight into a public sewer, and fat getting past a grease trap can cause real trouble there.
The sign-off is always in writing: a written report, dated and illustrated with photos, 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.

Staff cleaning versus specialist work
When your team notices a problem between visits, like drips, unusual noise, smells or damaged filters, they should report it rather than try to fix it. We’ll take a look and send you a fixed quote.
Logging matters as much as cleaning. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, next to our reports.

What a clean won’t put right
Grease trap cleaning can’t fix everything, and we will tell you before we start. It doesn’t solve:
- A unit that cannot cope with the kitchen’s output
- Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
- Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
If in doubt, phone us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll say what we think.

Landlords, agents and facilities managers
Running several sites is easier with one contractor. We work across London and the South East, so a run of sites can go into one programme and kept to a regular schedule.
When the building owner and the occupier are different, the lease normally sets out who maintains what. We can quote either party and send the paperwork to whoever needs it.
Between visits
After the visit, a few habits help the work last:
- Collect waste cooking oil separately
- Tell us if your menu or hours change
- Act on gurgling or smelly drains
- Don’t store things on top of the trap
Once the trap is cleaned and refitted, the sinks can be used right away. Water is run through to check everything flows before we go.
An overfull trap lets grease pass. Cleaning it before it’s full keeps grease out of the drains and avoids a blockage.
How we price grease trap cleaning
Sites vary more than people expect. The main factors:
- Whether several sites go on one quote
- A single visit or a regular plan
- The times the site is available
- The condition we find in the survey
A single site or a whole portfolio, the quote is built the same way: what needs doing, how we get to it and when. You’ll have a fixed price before we start.
Asking for a quote
There’s no need for technical detail. Just send:
- Any access panels or hatches you can see
- Any previous report or certificate
- The site address and the type of premises
- A few general shots of the system
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 send you a fixed quote. To get going, call 0345 646 2711, or send details by email.
What happens on the day
At the end of the visit, someone from your team can look over the work with us. We point out anything that couldn’t be reached or needs a follow-up, and the same goes into the written report. All told, the work takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. Visits to a village like White Waltham are booked in advance, at a time that suits whoever runs the site.

Common questions in White Waltham
Who carries out food hygiene inspections in White Waltham?
In White Waltham, it’s Windsor and Maidenhead council that carries out food hygiene inspections. Inspection results feed into the food hygiene rating published by the Food Standards Agency.
Can you get to a site in White Waltham?
Yes. Villages and rural sites across the South East are part of our work, White Waltham included. The journey is planned ahead, so a few details about the route help.
Do you clean under-sink and inline grease traps?
Under-sink units, inline traps and interceptors are all covered. Let us know what’s fitted and we will plan around it.
Will you tell us when the next visit is due?
Yes. Every report includes a recommended date for the next visit, based on use and what we found.
How much does grease trap cleaning cost?
We price it once we know the trap and how often it needs cleaning. Just call 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will quote before any work starts.
Do you provide a certificate or report?
Yes. Each visit ends with a written report and photos, showing what was done, anything we couldn’t reach and when the next visit is due. Where the work is a TR19® Grease clean, there’s also a certificate issued through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.
Where does the waste go?
It’s contained and taken away. Grease, debris and waste water are collected as the work goes on rather than letting it spread.
What’s the right interval for grease trap cleaning?
The right interval depends on your trap and your cooking. Slow or smelly sinks between cleans mean it needs doing more often, and we can shorten it.
What happens if it’s left?
Some kitchens try to fix slow drains with hot water or drain cleaners. It just shifts the grease further along, where it sets again. The lasting fix starts with the trap. Planning a trip to White Waltham ahead is easier for everyone than a rushed one.
Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you will get one fixed quote.
