SW & Central London Experts
Kwik Jet provide specialist drainage services for restaurants and commercial kitchens, helping businesses tackle blocked drains, manage grease build-up and reduce disruption caused by drainage problems.
With over 30 years of experience, our family-run team use professional high-pressure jetting and CCTV inspection equipment to investigate drainage issues, clear blockages and maintain heavily used drainage systems.
From dealing with an existing blockage to arranging ongoing maintenance, we provide practical support tailored to the requirements of your premises.
Keeping Restaurant & Commercial Kitchen Drains Flowing
Restaurants and commercial kitchens place significant demands on drainage systems. Frequent washing, food preparation, cleaning and high volumes of wastewater can all contribute to grease, fat, food waste and debris accumulating inside pipework.
Over time, these deposits can restrict drainage flow, leading to slow-draining sinks, unpleasant smells, blocked external drains and wastewater backing up into the premises.
For busy hospitality businesses, these problems can disrupt kitchen operations, affect staff and customers, and create unnecessary pressure during trading hours.
Kwik Jet provide practical drainage solutions for commercial kitchens, including:
-
High-pressure drain jetting
-
Grease and fat build-up clearance
-
Blocked drain and waste pipe clearance
-
Commercial CCTV drain surveys
-
Planned preventative drainage maintenance
-
Investigation of recurring blockages
-
External drain, gully and manhole clearance

Common Drainage Problems in Restaurants & Commercial Kitchens
Drainage problems in commercial kitchens often develop gradually as grease, food waste and other deposits accumulate inside heavily used drainage systems.
Understanding the cause of a blockage is important, particularly where the same problem keeps returning.
Grease and Fat Build-Up
Cooking fats, oils and grease can collect inside drainage pipes, gradually restricting the space available for wastewater to flow.
As the build-up increases, kitchens may experience slow drainage, unpleasant smells or repeated blockages.
High-pressure drain jetting can help remove accumulated grease and deposits from suitable pipework, while planned maintenance can help manage the risk of further build-up.
Blocked Kitchen Waste Pipes
Commercial sinks and waste pipes handle frequent washing and cleaning throughout the working day.
Food particles, grease and other debris can accumulate in waste systems, causing water to drain slowly or back up into sinks.
Kwik Jet can investigate blocked wastes and use appropriate clearance methods depending on the location and severity of the problem.
Blocked External Drains and Gullies
External drainage systems can become obstructed by grease, silt, debris and other waste materials.
Blocked gullies or drains may cause wastewater to accumulate around access points or back up towards the building.
Our engineers can assess the affected drainage system and use suitable equipment to clear the obstruction.
Recurring Drainage Blockages
If the same drain repeatedly blocks, clearing the immediate obstruction may only provide a temporary solution.
Recurring problems can indicate heavy grease build-up, scale, poor drainage flow, damaged pipework or another underlying defect.
A commercial CCTV drain survey can help establish what is happening inside the pipework so that further maintenance or repairs can be considered.
Sustainable Drain Jetting for Commercial Kitchens
In 2022, we launched the UK's first zero-emission electric jetting unit in operation and have since expanded our electric jetting capabilities.
Our fleet includes hybrid jetting vehicles that can operate electrically on suitable sites, allowing us to carry out drainage work without emissions at the point of use when running in electric mode.
This can be particularly relevant for restaurants, hospitality businesses, commercial landlords and facilities teams looking to reduce the environmental impact of their maintenance suppliers.
We continue to invest in electric and hybrid equipment while maintaining the specialist drainage capabilities needed to tackle commercial blockages and routine maintenance.
Our Electric Jetting Case Study
Kwik Jet became the first UK contractor to put a zero-emission electric jetting unit into daily operation. This investment marked an important step in our sustainability journey and demonstrated our commitment to finding cleaner ways to deliver specialist drainage services.

Restaurant & Commercial Kitchen Drainage FAQs
What drainage services do you provide for restaurants and commercial kitchens?
Kwik Jet provide high-pressure drain jetting, blocked drain clearance, CCTV drain surveys and planned preventative maintenance for restaurants and commercial kitchens. We help businesses address existing drainage problems and manage the risk of recurring blockages.
Can you clear grease and fat from commercial kitchen drains?
Yes. Grease and fat can build up inside drainage pipes and restrict wastewater flow. High-pressure drain jetting can help remove accumulated deposits from suitable drainage systems and restore normal flow.
How often should restaurant drains be cleaned?
The most suitable maintenance frequency depends on the level of kitchen usage, drainage layout, grease build-up and previous blockages. Kwik Jet can arrange monthly, quarterly, six-monthly or annual maintenance visits based on the property's requirements.
Why do our restaurant drains keep blocking?
Recurring blockages may be caused by grease, fat, food waste, scale, damaged pipework or poor drainage flow. Where the cause is not clear, a CCTV drain survey can help identify underlying problems and guide the next steps.
Can you carry out CCTV drain surveys in commercial kitchens?
Yes. Kwik Jet use specialist CCTV drainage equipment to inspect pipework and investigate recurring blockages, suspected damage and other drainage issues. CCTV inspections can help determine whether cleaning, maintenance or further remedial work is required.
Can regular drainage maintenance help reduce disruption to restaurant operations?
Regular maintenance can help remove accumulated deposits and identify problem areas before they cause major blockages. Although it cannot prevent every drainage issue, a planned programme can reduce the risk of avoidable disruption.
