Emergency Grease Trap Service in Calgary

Urgent response when a trap is overflowing, drains have backed up, or a kitchen is about to stop serving.

An overflowing interceptor is not a maintenance item — it is an operational stoppage. Sinks will not drain, the floor is a hazard and the health inspector will not be sympathetic.

Call us with the situation and we will tell you honestly what we can do and when. Nothing on this page claims a guaranteed response window; you will get a real answer on the phone instead.

Signs you need this service

  • Grease or wastewater coming up through floor drains
  • Sinks and dishpits not draining at all
  • Trap overflowing at the lid
  • Strong sewage or rancid grease odour through the kitchen
  • A backup that started mid-service

How we do the work

  1. 01

    Call and describe it

    Tell us the facility type, what you are seeing and where the unit is. We will confirm what is possible.

  2. 02

    Contain it on site

    While you wait: stop using the affected drains, keep staff clear of the wet area and keep the area ventilated.

  3. 03

    Pump the unit down

    The immediate fix is getting volume out so the system can move water again.

  4. 04

    Find the cause

    Overflow is usually a missed interval or a blocked outlet. We check which one it was.

  5. 05

    Clean and check

    Clean the unit, inspect baffles and tees, and confirm flow.

  6. 06

    Prevent the repeat

    Set an interval that reflects what we found so it does not happen again next quarter.

What every visit includes

  • Urgent pump-out and clean-down
  • Cause assessment, not just volume removal

Who this is for

  • Restaurants mid-service with a backup
  • Facility managers with a flooded kitchen floor
  • Property managers with a tenant emergency

Staying ahead of the problem

Almost every emergency we attend traces back to an interval that was too long or never set. The clean-up is the expensive part; the schedule is the cheap part.

Questions about emergency grease service

What should I do if my grease trap is overflowing right now?

Stop running water into the affected drains, keep staff away from the wet area for safety, ventilate the space, and call us at 587-332-2200 with the facility type and what you are seeing.

Can you come outside business hours?

Call and ask. We would rather tell you what is genuinely available for your situation than publish a promise that does not hold on the night you need it.

Will you find out why it overflowed?

Yes. Volume removal is the immediate fix; we also check the outlet, baffles and interval so you know which one caused it.
