Grease Trap Repair vs. Replacement: Which Is Right for You?
Every grease trap eventually requires attention, but deciding between a repair and a replacement depends on the condition of the system, the age of the unit, and how well it has been maintained. At Andrew’s, we evaluate your system carefully and recommend the most cost-effective solution for your business.
Grease Trap Repair
A grease trap repair may be the right choice if the system is relatively new, properly sized, and still structurally sound. Repairs typically address:
- Small leaks or cracks in the housing
- Faulty gaskets, baffles, or fittings
- Blockages caused by grease accumulation
- Drainage issues due to clogged lines
By repairing these issues early, you extend the life of your system, reduce costs, and avoid the need for a full replacement.
Grease Trap Replacement
Replacement is often necessary when the system is severely damaged, outdated, or consistently failing inspections. You may need a new grease trap if you notice:
- Persistent foul odors despite frequent cleaning
- Overflowing or recurring clogs that disrupt operations
- Rusted or corroded tanks beyond repair
- Structural damage such as collapsed walls or holes
- Health code violations related to grease trap performance
In these cases, a full grease trap replacement ensures compliance, prevents expensive plumbing failures, and helps your business meet the increasing demands of today’s food service industry.

Still Unsure? Here Are The Signs Your Business Needs a Grease Trap Repair or Replacement
Recognizing early warning signs is key to avoiding costly emergencies. If your kitchen is experiencing any of the following issues, it’s time to call Andrew’s for a professional inspection and solution.
1
Foul Odors
Persistent foul smells often indicate grease buildup, stagnant water, or decomposing food waste inside the trap. These odors can quickly create an unpleasant environment for staff and customers, and usually signal it’s time for cleaning or repair.
2
Slow Drainage
If sinks and floor drains are emptying more slowly than usual, grease buildup may be restricting flow. Left unchecked, this can lead to backups and operational downtime.
3
Grease Accumulation
Visible grease or FOG accumulation near drains or around the trap itself suggests your system is overdue for cleaning or repair. Excess grease can also seep into pipes, leading to clogs and health code violations.
4
Clogged Pipes
Recurring clogs in your plumbing system often mean your grease trap is failing to capture FOG effectively. Professional service is needed to restore proper function and prevent costly pipe damage.
5
Overflowing Grease Trap
When a grease trap overflows, it not only halts kitchen operations but can also trigger severe sanitation violations. This is usually a sign of improper maintenance, poor sizing, or system failure that may require replacement.
6
Increased Pest Activity
Food waste and grease are magnets for pests. If your business notices an increase in flies, rodents, or cockroaches, it could be linked to a poorly functioning grease trap.
7
Gurgling Sounds In Drain
Unusual noises from sinks or floor drains may indicate trapped air caused by blockages in your grease trap or connecting pipes. This is often an early warning of a pending backup.
8
Health Code Violation
If your facility has received warnings or citations for grease management, immediate action is necessary. Whether repair, maintenance, or full replacement, our commercial grease trap services help you return to compliance quickly.

Grease Trap Cleaning Frequently Asked Questions
					 What to do if a grease trap is leaking? 
							
			
			
		
						
				If your grease trap is leaking, shut down water flow to the unit and call a licensed professional immediately. Leaks often result from cracks, corroded steel, or worn seals. Temporary fixes won’t last—professional emergency grease trap repair or replacement may be required.
					 How often do grease traps need to be replaced? 
							
			
			
		
						
				Most grease traps last 7–10 years, depending on usage, material, and maintenance. Frequent repairs, corrosion, or persistent failures are signs it’s time for replacement.
					 How to fix a grease trap overflowing? 
							
			
			
		
						
				Overflowing grease traps usually occur when maintenance is overdue or the trap is undersized. A professional cleaning can resolve minor cases, but severe or repeated overflow may require resizing or installing a new grease trap.
					 How much does it cost to maintain a grease trap? 
							
			
			
		
						
				Costs vary depending on trap size and frequency of service, but routine maintenance is always more affordable than emergency repairs or fines. Regular cleaning prevents expensive plumbing damage and health code violations.
					 What is the life expectancy of a grease trap? 
							
			
			
		
						
				With consistent care, a properly maintained grease trap can function for a decade or more. Neglected traps, however, often fail within a few years due to corrosion and buildup.
					 How do I know if my grease trap is clogged? 
							
			
			
		
						
				Warning signs include slow drainage, foul odors, grease buildup, or gurgling sounds from drains. If you notice any of these issues, schedule service before the problem escalates.
					 Can anyone clean a grease trap? 
							
			
			
		
						
				No. Proper grease trap cleaning requires commercial-grade equipment and compliance with local disposal regulations. Hiring a professional grease trap cleaner ensures your system is cleaned safely and legally.
					 Can you pour grease down the drain if you have a grease trap? 
							
			
			
		
						
				Never pour grease directly down the drain. Even with a grease trap, excessive grease overwhelms the system and causes backups. Grease should always be collected in containers and disposed of properly.
