Grease Trap Installation and Maintenance in Sydney
Plumbers for Commercial Kitchens That Can’t Afford Downtime
A grease trap (or grease arrestor) is the tank that intercepts fats, oils and grease from a commercial kitchen’s wastewater before it reaches the sewer. In Sydney, food businesses — cafés, restaurants, pubs, clubs and food halls — are required under Sydney Water’s trade waste rules to have a correctly sized grease trap and to keep it maintained. When a trap is undersized, damaged or neglected, grease hardens, the kitchen backs up, and the business risks fines and downtime.
We’re not just general plumbers. We’re commercial specialists who understand the daily pressure of commercial food operations. From small takeaway shops to large restaurant chains, we provide expert, commercial-grade plumbing backed by experience, transparency, and urgency.

Do I Legally Need One?
Sydney Water regulates trade waste, which includes the fats, oils and grease produced by commercial food preparation.
Most food businesses need a grease arrestor sized to their kitchen’s output and connected under an approved trade waste agreement. We design and install systems that meet those requirements and help with the council and Sydney Water documentation, so you pass inspection without delays to your opening or fit-out.
Grease Traps need To Be Fully Compliant
Sydney councils and Sydney Water have strict requirements for grease trap sizing, positioning, and installation standards. We understand the codes and build systems that not only meet regulations but are tailored to your commercial kitchen’s daily output.
Whether you’re launching a new food venue or upgrading an aging trap, our plumbers design systems to suit your kitchen’s grease volume, pipe flow, and drain configuration.
We deliver the best installations, repairs, and plumbing maintenance for all business owners.

Grease Trap Blockage and Repairs – Fast Response Times
Every install is completed by a licensed plumber with commercial experience — no subcontractors, no guesswork, and no delays.
Grease traps are designed to intercept fats, oils, and grease (FOG) — but over time, these materials harden and cause internal clogs or component failures. When this happens, you need more than a cleaner, you need a plumber with the tools and experience to remove grease blockages, replace failed parts, and restore system flow.
Common Repairs and Maintenance Services:
- Clearing grease trap blockages in inlets, outlets, and internal chambers
- Replacing cracked or corroded tank walls, lids, or internal baffles
- Repairing leaks around pipe entry points or access covers
- Fixing connection issues between grease traps and trade waste lines
- Recommissioning traps after long periods of disuse
We’re available across Sydney to clear blocked grease traps, replace broken baffles, and repair damaged connections. Our team uses commercial-grade tools to get your system running again, fast.
We do not perform routine grease trap pump-outs or cleaning services — but we work closely with cleaners and facility managers to provide complementary plumbing support when deeper blockages or mechanical failures arise.
