Grease Pumping Backed by Decades of Local Experience
Restaurant owners tell us the same things about grease trap service: trucks show up at the wrong hour, paperwork goes missing, and FOG compliance feels like a moving target. We built our grease service to fix that. It's backed by the same 20+ years of plumbing and septic experience that homes and businesses across the Fredericksburg area already rely on, with the same standards, the same local crews, and a real maintenance plan so the work happens before there's a problem.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you service our grease trap in Spotsylvania or Fredericksburg outside of business hours?
Yes. We provide grease pumping, grease trap cleaning, and maintenance plans for restaurants and commercial kitchens in Spotsylvania County and the City of Fredericksburg, and we schedule around your service hours. Early-morning and after-close appointments are available so service never interrupts a lunch or dinner rush. Call (540) 645-1351 to book.
What are the signs my grease trap needs to be pumped?
Common warning signs include slow-draining sinks or floor drains, rancid or sewer-like odors near drains, gurgling during dishwashing, grease showing up in floor drains, and water backing up into prep sinks or the dish pit. If it has been more than three months since your last service, it is likely due. Call us before the next rush.
Do you provide documentation for FOG compliance and health inspections?
Yes. Every visit includes a manifest record showing the date, volume pumped, and disposal details, along with notes on the trap's condition and any recommended repairs. You keep a copy and we keep a copy, so you have a complete service history ready for FOG compliance reviews and health inspections.
What is included in a restaurant grease maintenance plan?
A restaurant grease maintenance plan puts your grease trap on a set service schedule (monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly) matched to your trap size and kitchen volume. Plans include a free trap sizing assessment, documented manifests for every visit, locked-in pricing for the term of the agreement, priority response between visits, and one point of contact for scheduling and billing.
What is the difference between grease pumping and grease trap cleaning?
Grease pumping removes the floating grease and wastewater from the trap. A full grease trap cleaning goes further: we also remove settled food solids, wash down the interior walls and baffles, and inspect the inlet and outlet tees for damage. Assure Plumbing & Septic includes a full cleaning with every grease pumping visit.
How often should a commercial grease trap be pumped?
Most commercial kitchens need their grease trap pumped every one to three months. High-volume kitchens with fryers and heavy dish loads often need monthly service, while lighter operations can go longer. A common benchmark is to pump before grease and solids reach 25% of the trap's depth. We measure your trap on the first visit and recommend an interval that fits your kitchen.
