Our approachable and experienced team is available to support your grease management goals. We offer free, practical advice to ensure your business remains fully compliant with grease management regulations and best practices for commercial kitchens.
Grease Guru is proud to be recognised as a top provider of Fat, Oil & Grease Management in the UK, offering consulting services, installation of Grease Recovery Units, Passive Grease Separators, Bio Dosing systems, filtration, and on-demand servicing.
On-Demand
As more kitchens rely on Grease Traps to ensure FOG compliance, the unit becomes increasingly critical, creating real challenges for kitchens if it stops working for any reason. Grease Guru understands this and offers a 24/7 on-demand reactive service across the UK to ensure your grease trap is working as soon as practicable. Engineers are trained in drainage & plumbing and will quickly diagnose the problem and provide a solution.
Repairs
At Grease Guru, we specialise in expert grease trap repairs, ensuring that your commercial kitchen remains operational, compliant, and free from drainage issues. A faulty grease trap can lead to serious problems such as blockages, foul odours, and potential fines for non-compliance. Our professional repair service quickly identifies and resolves issues, keeping your kitchen running smoothly with minimal disruption.
Servicing & Maintenance
An important part of FOG management is the kitchen staff’s daily maintenance regime and the regular external servicing and deep-cleaning provided by Grease Guru. This ensures that equipment remains active, preventing FOG from polluting the system and helping the unit retain its capital value for as long as possible. This also satisfies Landlords and Water Companies that the Grease Trap is fulfilling its duties. Grease Guru’s job management system ensures, in perpetuity, that waste transfer notes are visible and that a quality job was completed, with evidence for anyone who comes knocking!
Installation
As an independent provider of Grease Management for Fats, Oils & Grease (FOG), Grease Guru works alongside several manufacturers to ensure the best equipment is chosen for the task, not what a manufacturer demands. This means that customers will always receive the best advice for their unique circumstances. With relationships with several grease trap builders, Grease Guru offers competitive pricing that can be passed directly to its customers. Directly employed teams will survey kitchens, propose the best solution and then install the equipment to a very high standard.

Water industry act 1991
Are You Compliant?
Key UK Legislation
The foundation of grease trap legislation stems from the UK Water Industry Act 1991, which clearly states: "No person shall throw, empty or turn, or suffer or permit to be thrown or emptied or to pass, into any public sewer, or into any drain or sewer communicating with a public sewer, any matter likely to injure the sewer or drain, to interfere with the free flow of its contents or to affect prejudicially the treatment and disposal of its contents."
This legislation is interpreted to include sewer contamination by fat, oil and grease (FOG), making proper grease management a legal requirement for commercial kitchens.
