FOG is the single biggest cause of commercial drain failure

Fat, oil and grease (FOG) is the number-one cause of blockage in commercial kitchen drainage. Cooled cooking fat congeals on pipe walls, captures everything else passing through and slowly narrows the bore until even a normal washing-up load tips the drain into a blockage. The right approach is twofold: a properly serviced grease trap to capture FOG before it enters the drainage, and scheduled drainage jetting to keep the run downstream clean.

Call2Drain services grease traps across Kent, Surrey, Sussex, Essex & London on monthly, bi-monthly or quarterly schedules depending on the volume of food prep on site. Each service includes physically lifting the trap contents, jetting the chamber and outlet, and confirming the float and baffle are functioning correctly.

For sites where the trap is overwhelmed - usually because the kitchen has grown faster than the original trap was sized for - we can advise on upsizing or supplementing with a passive separator or biological dosing system. Most issues can be solved at a fraction of the cost of replacing the trap altogether.

Common questions

How often should a grease trap be serviced?

Depends on covers per day and food type. Busy restaurants typically need monthly; lighter sites can stretch to quarterly.

Will my insurance cover blockages from FOG?

Most commercial policies exclude blockages caused by failed grease management. A documented service schedule is what insurers expect.

Can you handle out-of-hours visits?

Yes. Evening and early-morning slots are routine - we work around your service hours so the kitchen does not lose covers.
