A Process Designed to Minimize Downtime
When you schedule grease trap replacement, you need clarity on timing, permits, and how the work will affect your property. Our team takes a structured approach, so you understand the plan before we begin.
- Site evaluation and proper sizing – We start with a thorough site evaluation. Our technicians review fixture counts, kitchen output, and existing plumbing connections. We calculate proper capacity so your new grease trap or interceptor can handle your current demand, not just your past usage. Proper sizing helps reduce the risk of recurring backups and failed inspections.
- Permit coordination and scheduling – Grease trap replacement often requires permits and coordination with local authorities. We handle the necessary paperwork and schedule inspections in alignment with Ventura requirements. By organizing approvals in advance, we help you avoid last-minute surprises that can delay reopening or final sign-off.
- Safe removal and installation – Our team carefully removes the old unit, whether it is located inside your kitchen or below grade in a parking area. We install the new system in accordance with current plumbing codes and manufacturer specifications. After installation, we test connections, confirm proper flow, and prepare for inspection.
As a family-owned company serving the area since 1996, we approach every project with hands-on leadership and meticulous attention to detail.
