Why it’s worth doing now in Wolverton Common

Grease that gets past the trap doesn’t disappear. It can build up in the drains and join fatbergs in the sewer. Keeping it in the trap, and emptying the trap, is the responsible thing to do. If the system at a site near Wolverton Common fails, there may be nowhere nearby to move to.

Every site is different, so each one gets its own fixed quote. The size of the job, how we reach it, its condition and the working hours all play a part.

Grease trap cleaning in Wolverton Common, done properly

If the sinks drain slowly or smell, the trap is often the cause. In Wolverton Common, as everywhere we work, our team empties and cleans the trap and run water through to check it drains. If you have a blocked kitchen drain caused by grease and scheduled grease trap emptying, we can help, from school and care home kitchens, restaurants and takeaways and kitchen waste pipes onwards.

In a village or hamlet like Wolverton Common, commercial kitchens are few, perhaps a pub, a school or a care home. Each still needs the occasional deep clean and its grease trap kept clear.

We are CHAS and SafeContractor accredited, we hold ISO 9001 and we’re fully insured. On top of that, we are a BESCA Vent Hygiene Elite member, cleaning to BESA TR19® Grease, and we have been trading since 2009.

What grease trap cleaning cannot fix

We will not sell you work that does not address the problem, so here are the limits:

  • Grease deep in the drains, which needs jetting by a drainage contractor
  • Collapsed or damaged drains, which need a drainage contractor
  • Blockages further down the drainage network

If you’re not sure, just call us on 0345 646 2711, or email photos and we’ll give you a straight answer.

What we work on in Wolverton Common

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

What the work involves, part by part

Grease interceptors

Bigger kitchens may have a larger grease interceptor. They hold more grease and solids but they still need cleaning.

Under-sink grease traps

We empty and clean under-sink traps without disrupting the rest of the kitchen and check the seal on the lid.

What happens on the day

The visit has three parts: getting the area ready, doing the work and signing it off. Set-up means sheeting and making equipment safe, while signing off means the written report and photos. The middle part takes longest, and that takes anything from under an hour to a few hours, depending on the trap. A quick note on how to find the site and where to park makes a visit to Wolverton Common run smoothly.

  1. We agree a time when the sinks aren’t needed.
  2. The trap is opened up and checked.
  3. Built-up grease and food waste are taken out.
  4. We clean the baffles, inlet and outlet.
  5. The trap is closed, tested and the next clean discussed.

Before we arrive

  • Let us know when the site is closed or quiet
  • Clear loose items from the work area
  • Let us know about parking and loading

Commercial kitchens in Wolverton Common

The Food Standards Agency lists about 3 pubs, bars and clubs as registered food businesses within about 1.5 miles of central Wolverton Common. Pub and hotel kitchens get the same build-up behind equipment and in the grease trap as any other. In Wolverton Common, food businesses are inspected by environmental health officers from Basingstoke and Deane council. 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. We cover Wolverton Common, about 49 miles from central London, as part of our work across London and the South East. The visit is fixed around your opening hours, not ours.

Half-term is a good time for school kitchens, at schools like The Hurst School 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 Park Prewett Hospital about 5 miles south-east, deep cleans and grease trap visits are planned so meals still go out. Hall kitchens near Church of St Catherine or elsewhere in Wolverton Common may have older sinks and drains, so a grease trap check is worth adding to a deep clean.

Wolverton Common: your questions answered

Can you come to Wolverton Common after we close?

Yes, evening, overnight and weekend work is normal for us. It means the site in Wolverton Common keeps running as normal. When you give us a ring on 0345 646 2711 or send us an email, mention when the site is quiet.

Who carries out food hygiene inspections in Wolverton Common?

The local authority for Wolverton Common is Basingstoke and Deane council, and its environmental health team does the inspecting. How often a business is inspected depends on the council’s risk rating for it, so the kitchen needs to be ready at any time.

What happens if a grease trap isn’t cleaned?

Once it’s full, grease passes straight through. The grease hardens in the pipes, leading to blocked drains and smells and can end up adding to sewer blockages.

Do you offer emergency callouts?

Yes, day and night, every day of the year. Office hours are Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm, and the emergency line covers the rest.

Which grease traps does the service cover?

Under-sink units, inline traps and interceptors are all covered. Tell us what you have and we will plan the visit.

Do you deal with blocked drains beyond the grease trap?

It depends where the blockage is. A full trap is a common cause, and cleaning it can help, but blockages further along need a drainage contractor.

Can one contract cover all our sites?

Yes. Send the list of sites and the work at each and we will quote them together.

Do I get a report after the visit?

Yes. It’s the record insurers and inspectors ask to see: a written, dated record with pictures of what we did and anything we couldn’t access.

In-house cleaning or 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. Reaching it takes a specialist with the right equipment.

Keep a record of what your team does. A simple log of filter washes, wipe-downs and checks shows an inspector that the system is looked after between visits, alongside our reports.

Looking after it afterwards

Looking after the system between visits is straightforward, and it helps at the next visit:

  • Get food waste into the bin, not the sink
  • Report slow or smelly sinks early
  • Keep access to the trap clear
  • Fit sink strainers to catch food scraps

We’ll suggest when the trap should be cleaned again. It’s based on how full it was and how much the kitchen cooks.

Slow sinks and a bad smell are early warnings. Acting at this stage usually prevents a blockage later.

For landlords and multi-site operators

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person must assess and reduce fire risk, which may be the employer, owner, landlord, FM or managing agent. Where responsibility is shared, records matter even more.

We work for landlords, managing agents and facilities managers as well as the people running the site. Shared systems, like a riser serving several units, need a clear agreement on who books the work, and we’re happy to quote for all of it.
