Grease Trap Cleaning & Maintenance (Commercial)
Keep It Clean. Keep It Flowing. Stay in Compliance.
If your business has a commercial kitchen, you already know how important your grease trap is. But if it’s not cleaned and maintained properly, it can cause major headaches—clogs, odors, backups, and even code violations. At Military Plumbing, we offer professional grease trap cleaning and maintenance services to help businesses across Frisco, Garland, Plano, and the wider DFW Metroplex stay compliant, clean, and operational.
We handle grease so you don’t have to.
What’s a Grease Trap—and Why Does It Matter?
A grease trap is a plumbing device installed in commercial kitchens to intercept fats, oils, and grease (FOG) before they enter the wastewater system. These substances can solidify in pipes and cause massive blockages—both in your system and in the city’s.
Regular maintenance of your grease trap is essential for:
- Health code compliance
- Avoiding costly plumbing backups
- Preventing unpleasant odors in your kitchen
- Avoiding emergency closures or city fines
- Keeping your kitchen running safely and efficiently
Whether you’re running a restaurant, food truck, cafeteria, or commercial prep facility, grease trap maintenance is not optional—it’s critical.
What We Offer
Military Plumbing provides complete grease trap services designed to keep your commercial kitchen flowing smoothly. Our team understands the urgency and importance of staying on top of your FOG output.
Our grease trap services include:
- Routine pumping and cleaning
- Inspection of baffles, seals, and flow lines
- FOG level measurement and documentation
- Cleaning schedules tailored to your volume
- Removal and proper disposal of waste
- Recommendations for optimal grease trap maintenance practices
- Emergency service if backups or odors arise
We also provide written records of service to keep you compliant with local regulations and inspections.
Signs Your Grease Trap Needs Cleaning
Waiting until your trap backs up is never a good plan. Here are a few red flags that it’s time to schedule service:
- Persistent odors near sinks or drains
- Water draining slowly in kitchen fixtures
- Visible grease floating in the trap
- Overflow or backup into floor drains
- You can’t remember the last time it was cleaned
- You’re receiving city notices or violations
If you’re already noticing issues, don’t wait—call us before it becomes a major (and messy) situation.
