Grease Trap Pumping & Cleaning Services

Neglected grease traps can lead to serious consequences for your food service business. When FOG (fats, oils, and grease) accumulates, it can cause sewer backups into your establishment, creating unsanitary conditions, triggering immediate health department shutdowns, and potentially forcing temporary closure during peak business hours. You may face costly emergency plumbing repairs ($1,000-5,000+), health code violations with substantial fines ($500-2,000 per occurrence), and potential suspension of your food service permit. Additionally, grease that escapes into municipal sewer systems can contribute to "fatbergs" and sewer overflows, which may result in environmental penalties and responsibility for cleanup costs. Regular maintenance is far more economical than dealing with these expensive and reputation-damaging consequences.
