ESSENTIAL SERVICE

Grease Trap Servicing & Maintenance

At Grease Guru, we provide expert grease trap servicing and maintenance to ensure your commercial kitchen operates smoothly, remains compliant with UK regulations, and avoids costly disruptions. Regular servicing is essential to prevent blockages, bad odours, and system failures caused by fat, oil, and grease (FOG) build-up.

Without routine maintenance, grease traps can become ineffective, leading to:

Drainage Blockages & Overflowing Waste

Prevent costly repairs and ensure uninterrupted kitchen operations

Unpleasant Odours & Hygiene Risks

Maintain a clean, odour-free environment for staff and customers

Fines & Enforcement Notices

Stay compliant with UK water authority and environmental regulations

Environmental Harm

Avoid pollution caused by excessive grease entering the sewer system

Reduced Efficiency

Keep your grease trap working at full capacity with regular cleaning and maintenance

Our Method

Our Grease Trap Servicing Process

Our Unique Methods

  • Mechanical descaling of the inflow pipework from the sinks to the trap and descaling of the outfall (0.1-5M). Upon completing the descaling, the pipework will be tested for proper operation, and any defects reported as necessary.
  • Remove and thoroughly clean all filters, baskets and food trapping equipment.
  • Using wet vacuumation equipment, remove all water and clean the internal housing of the trap. Also; inspect, clean and service internal mechanical components and report any defects that require repair (chargeable).
  • Ensuring that all materials are disposed of in a compliant manner. Ensure the trap is free of food particulates and dairy products. Ensure the trap is free from FOGS.
  • Replace or repair consumable parts such as wiper blades (this may be chargeable).
  • Perform a minimum of three drop tests. Test the flow rate and rectify it to the appropriate specifications or standards.
  • Transfer waste FOGS compliantly to the vehicle using a tank or barrels, and complete the waste transfer note and job task card with before & after photos.

Reporting

To ensure complete transparency and compliance, our engineers use job cards to produce a comprehensive report for every grease trap service.

Your report includes before and after photos, a step-by-step summary of the work completed, details of any required corrective or remedial actions, and certified waste transfer notes. Everything you need to demonstrate compliance, protect your business, and maintain operational confidence in one place.

Your service documentation is delivered as a detailed PDF report, designed for clarity, traceability, and long-term record keeping.

Each PDF includes:

  • A structured layout with clear sections
  • Before and after images for visual confirmation
  • Written explanations to support photographic evidence
  • Date-stamped records for compliance and auditing

The report format makes it easy to download, share internally, or present during inspections — ensuring nothing is overlooked.
