Upfront Pricing
Grease Trap Installation, Repair & Servicing in London
Grease trap installation cost in London depends on the unit size, where it sits and how much pipework changes; servicing and repair depend on how hard the kitchen works it. Each is itemised before work starts.
Unlike the common practice of withholding prices, we set out our itemised pricing upfront. You'll see a clear breakdown of our charges for both installation and servicing based on the work required, before you ever book. This transparency is the core of how we work.
Our London-wide service covers everything from installing new grease traps in central London restaurant refits to routine servicing for cafes in residential buildings across the outer boroughs. Our engineers understand the specific demands of London's diverse plumbing infrastructure.
Our pricing is based on a clear matrix of service type (e.g., installation, routine service, emergency clearance) and the time band the work falls in. You see the total cost, itemised by labour and parts, before you commit.

Questions
Grease Traps FAQs for London homeowners
Do you show your prices online?
Yes. We publish our core pricing model online because we believe in transparency. You can understand how costs are calculated before you contact us, and your formal quote will reflect this published structure.
Why is regular grease trap servicing important in London?
London's ageing sewer network is highly susceptible to blockages from FOG. Regular servicing prevents back-ups into your property, avoids fines from Thames Water for non-compliance, and protects your business from disruptive and expensive emergencies.
What's involved in a standard service?
Our engineers pump out all contents, scrape and clean the interior baffles and walls, inspect the unit for damage or wear, and ensure the inlet/outlet is flowing freely. We dispose of all waste at licensed facilities and provide a certificate.
Can you install a grease trap in a listed building or tight central London site?
Yes. Our engineers are experienced with the access challenges of London properties, including basement kitchens, listed buildings with conservation-area restrictions, and tight service alleys. We advise on the best unit and placement.
How often should my commercial kitchen's grease trap be serviced?
Frequency depends entirely on your volume of cooking. A high-turnover restaurant in Soho may need monthly servicing, while a small cafe might require quarterly. We will recommend a schedule based on your specific operation after an initial assessment.

A grease trap price depends far more on which unit your kitchen needs and where it has to go than on the trap itself. How each type is sized, what adds cost and what it costs to run once fitted.
