Wastewater Services for Restaurants
A restaurant can work around a late delivery or a packed lunch rush. A slow floor drain, overdue grease trap, or water pooling by the service entrance shouldn’t become another problem your team has to manage.
When wastewater or drainage issues start affecting the back of house, they can pull staff away from prep, cleanup, and customer service. You need to know what’s causing the trouble, book the right service, and keep the day moving.
At ACE Tank, we support restaurants and food service properties across Vancouver, Surrey, Langley, Abbotsford, and the Fraser Valley. We handle the wastewater and drainage work behind your operation, so your team can stay focused on service.

One Property, Different Systems
Inside, a grease trap collects fats, oils, grease, and food-related material before it continues through the kitchen drainage system. Outside, storm drains and catch basins move rainwater away from entrances, loading areas, drive lanes, and parking stalls.
Some food service properties also have private septic systems.
We can help with:
- Commercial grease trap cleaning and scheduled maintenance
- Septic support for food service properties with private systems, where needed
- Storm drain, catch basin, and parking lot drainage cleaning
- Hydro vac support where buried drains or utilities need careful access
We start with the area that’s filling, draining slowly, or causing complaints. Then we’ll help you schedule the service that matches the system involved.
Signs It’s Time to Book Service
You know how your restaurant normally runs. When a drainage or grease-related problem keeps coming back, it’s worth dealing with before staff have to work around it during a busy shift.
Watch for:
- Floor drains clearing more slowly than usual
- Odours near sinks, floor drains, or service areas
- Grease trap maintenance falling behind
- Water pooling near an entrance, loading area, or parking lot drain
- Debris building up around catch basin grates
- The same drainage concern returning after a temporary fix
A planned visit is easier to manage than a drainage issue that turns into a mid-shift interruption.
A Simple Plan for Restaurant Maintenance
Start With the Area Causing Trouble
Tell us what’s happening, where it’s happening, and what your staff has noticed. Operating hours, delivery lanes, shared parking, and tight access points all help us plan the visit properly.
Book the Service That Fits
Whether the issue points to grease trap cleaning, catch basin maintenance, storm drain cleaning, or septic service, we’ll work around your property as practically as possible.
Plan Around Repeat Issues
If the same floor drain, catch basin, or service area keeps filling, backing up, or drawing complaints, another one-time cleanup may not be the best long-term answer.
We can help plan maintenance around the areas that need repeat attention. That may mean scheduled grease trap service, seasonal catch basin cleaning before wetter months, or drainage maintenance around a loading area that sees frequent use.

Support Beyond the Kitchen Door
Exterior drains, service lanes, loading areas, parking lots, and catch basins collect sediment, leaves, litter, and runoff.
During BC’s wet months, a catch basin that’s partly full can turn into ponding around entrances, drive lanes, and loading areas. Cleaning removes buildup before it becomes a customer-facing issue.
That’s separate from grease trap service, but both can disrupt the same workday. We’ll help you focus on the system that actually needs attention.
Renovation and Reopening Support
Restaurant renovations can involve grease interceptors and sanitary sump pump chambers that need attention before the space returns to regular use.
Where the project calls for it, ACE Tank can flush and vacuum grease interceptors or sanitary sump pump chambers. That gives your team a cleaner starting point before reopening or handing the space back to regular operations.
