Commercial Grease Trap Installation & Maintenance in Southwest Florida

A grease trap (or interceptor) catches fats, oils, and grease before they reach the sewer — keeping your kitchen draining and your business in compliance. We install, repair, and service traps for restaurants and commercial kitchens across Southwest Florida.

Installation and correct sizing

We install and replace grease traps and interceptors sized to your kitchen's flow and your local grease ordinance. Too small and it overflows grease into the sewer; oversized wastes space and money. If you're opening or remodeling a commercial kitchen, we'll spec and install the right unit and prepare it for inspection.

Indoor traps vs in-ground interceptors

Smaller under-sink traps handle a single station; larger in-ground interceptors serve the whole kitchen. We help you choose based on your fixtures, menu, and local code, and install it so it's accessible for the cleaning and pumping it will need.

Keep it compliant and draining

A neglected trap means slow drains, foul odors, backups, and code violations that can shut a kitchen down. Regular service and proper maintenance keep the line clear and keep you on the right side of your local ordinance — and a documented service history is what inspectors want to see.

When grease has already backed up

If grease has hardened in the line and the kitchen is backing up, we clear it — often with hydro jetting that scours the pipe walls clean rather than just punching a hole through the clog — and then sort out the trap so it stops happening again.

Questions

Before you schedule

What size grease trap does my kitchen need?

It depends on your fixtures, flow, and local code. We size and install the right interceptor so it actually keeps up and passes inspection.

Do you clear grease backups too?

Yes — when grease has already clogged the line, we clear it (often with hydro jetting) and get the kitchen draining, then sort out the trap so it stops recurring.

How often should a grease trap be serviced?

It depends on volume and the size of the trap, but a regular schedule keeps it draining and keeps your service record clean for inspections. We'll recommend an interval for your kitchen.

How do I know if I need grease trap installation & maintenance?

It is worth asking about grease trap installation & maintenance when you notice slow drains in a commercial kitchen, foul odors near the trap or floor drains, grease backing up into sinks or floor drains, or new or remodeled kitchen that needs a trap installed. We confirm what is happening first, then explain the practical next step.
