Dealt with before it becomes a problem.
A septic tank or a grease trap works quietly until it is full. Then it backs up, the ground gets wet, the kitchen smells, and what should have been a routine visit becomes an emergency. We empty and clean tanks and traps across the Midlands and beyond, and we will tell you honestly how often yours needs doing.
Grease trap waste removal is part of keeping a commercial kitchen compliant and its drains running. We can pair it with a jetting schedule so the trap and the line downstream are both looked after on the same visit.
What we do
- Septic tank emptying and cleaning
- Grease trap emptying and waste removal
- Inspection of the tank, baffles and outlet
- Advice on percolation and drainage issues
- Jetting of the lines into and out of the tank
Regular servicing
Ask us to set a schedule. We turn up on the agreed interval, do the job and leave you a record. For landlords and property managers it means one less thing to remember, and for a restaurant it is the difference between a clean kitchen and a closed one.

How often should a septic tank be emptied?
For most family homes every one to three years, depending on tank size and how many people use it. We tell you what we find and suggest an interval.
What are the signs a tank is full?
Slow drains and toilets, gurgling, a wet or lush patch over the percolation area, and smells near the tank. Ring before it backs up into the house.
Do you do grease traps for restaurants?
Yes, and we can set a recurring schedule with a record for your files, paired with jetting of the line downstream.
Where does the waste go?
It is removed and disposed of properly at a licensed facility.
