Grease trap cleaning across Wilsley Pound

Between visits

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it makes the next visit easier:

  • Keep access to the trap clear
  • Keep strainers in every sink
  • Scrape plates and pans into the bin before washing up
  • Do not wait for a blockage to book a clean

The waste we remove leaves with us. There’s no greasy waste left on site when we’re done.

If the sinks are slow or smelly, the trap may be full. Acting at this stage usually prevents a blockage later.

Grease trap cleaning in Wilsley Pound, done properly

For kitchens across Wilsley Pound, grease trap cleaning fits easily around service. We empty, clean and check the trap and remove the waste. It works on its own or with a deep clean or extract clean. The work covers pot wash sinks, under-sink grease traps and school and care home kitchens, and the jobs we see most are a small trap that fills too quickly and a routine grease trap service.

Work in a small place like Wilsley Pound starts with agreeing a date and access, and the deep clean is the same as anywhere: walls, floors, ceilings and equipment.

A written report with pictures follows each visit, so you have a record of what was done and when. Kitchen extract cleaning to TR19® Grease is certificated through the BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite portal.

Your quote is based on your site. We consider:

  • Where the site is and how we reach it
  • The condition of the system
  • Whether it’s a one-off visit or part of a schedule

Several systems or sites on one quote often makes better use of the time. Mention every system or site you need covered, and you’ll get one fixed quote.

  • Any previous report or certificate
  • Photos showing the whole system and its surroundings
  • Your opening hours and when the area is out of use
  • The site address and the type of premises

Questions from Wilsley Pound

Do you work overnight in Wilsley Pound?

Yes, out-of-hours work is a big part of what we do. The site is handed back ready to open. Your opening times are the first thing we ask for.

Will you come out to Wilsley Pound?

Yes, we work in villages as well as towns, and Wilsley Pound is covered. Just mention lanes, gates or anything else about the site when you book.

Do you work with multi-site operators?

Yes. Our area covers London and the South East, so we can schedule a run of sites as one programme. Every site has its own report.

Where does the waste go?

It leaves the site with us at the end of the visit. While we work, it’s kept contained so the area stays clean.

What happens if a grease trap isn’t cleaned?

An overfull trap stops separating grease. Slow drains, bad smells and blockages follow.

Do you provide a certificate or report?

Yes, on every job. The report is dated and includes photos, and TR19® Grease cleans come with a certificate through the BESCA VHE portal. File it with your fire safety records.

What happens if you can’t reach some of it?

We record them on the report, with a note of where it is, and we tell you what would make it reachable, for example new access panels.

What types of premises do you cover?

Any site with a kitchen or a ventilation system to look after, from a small pub to a hospital. Hotels, schools, care homes, offices, shops and leisure sites are all part of our work.

What we’re called out for in Wilsley Pound

Food waste slips past sink strainers or gets rinsed down. It settles in the trap as solids and fill it from below.

Most sites get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Gurgling from the sink waste
  • Washing-up water that will not drain away
  • A grease trap that hasn’t been emptied in a long time
  • Grease setting in the kitchen pipework

If you look after a hall kitchen near Church of the Holy Trinity or anywhere in Wilsley Pound, a deep clean between busy seasons is easier than a scramble before a big event.

What to look for in a quote

  • Which accreditations they hold, and whether you can check them
  • Proof of insurance
  • Whether the work can be done while the site is closed
  • How areas they cannot reach will be recorded

Questions to ask before booking

Wilsley Pound kitchens: local notes

Food Standards Agency records include about 5 bars, pubs and nightclubs within 1.5 miles or so of the middle of Wilsley Pound. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. Food hygiene inspections in Wilsley Pound are the job of Tunbridge Wells council’s environmental health team. Grease behind equipment or on a ceiling is the kind of thing an inspection can note. Photos and dates from each deep clean make a useful record.

If you look after a school kitchen, at a school such as Cranbrook Church of England Primary School or anywhere near Wilsley Pound, the holidays are the time for a deep clean or a grease trap clean. If you run catering at a healthcare site, such as a hospital like Benenden Hospital about 3.4 miles south-east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out.

What a clean won’t put right

A few issues sit outside what this work can do:

  • Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
  • Leaking pipework or sink wastes, which need a plumber
  • A unit that can’t cope with the kitchen’s output

Not sure which it is? You can call us on 0345 646 2711 or use the quote form and we will tell you honestly before booking.

What the work covers

  • Kitchen waste pipes
  • School and care home kitchens
  • Under-sink grease traps
  • Restaurants and takeaways
  • Pot wash sinks
  • Inline grease traps

What we do, step by step

Our technicians bring everything the work needs, including protection sheets, the right tools and access kit. All we need from you is clear access and the right equipment switched off. The visit takes less than an hour for many under-sink units. In a small place like Wilsley Pound, the journey is planned ahead and the visit arranged around the site’s hours.

  1. We agree a time when the sinks are not needed.
  2. The trap is opened up and checked.
  3. We remove the grease layer and settled solids.
  4. We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
  5. We close it up, check it drains and suggest when it needs cleaning again.

How to prepare

  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Tell us about access, such as roof hatches, plant rooms, ceilings or locked areas
  • Allow time for equipment near the work to be turned off and cool down

Part by part

Grease interceptors

An interceptor works on the same principle as a smaller trap. Cooling water lets grease rise and solids settle.

Baffles and outlets

The baffles hold back grease while water flows on. They gather grease and debris, so we clean them.

What staff can safely do

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.

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.
