Experience & expertise
More homeowners are choosing to install domestic drain interceptors as part of a proactive drainage strategy. These systems help prevent fats, oils, grease, silt, or light pollutants from entering the main drainage network and causing costly blockages or environmental harm.
At Trent’s Drains, we provide complete domestic interceptor installation, maintenance and cleaning services across Bristol, Reading, Bath, Cardiff, Newport, Gloucester, Swindon, Chippenham, Weston-super-Mare, Taunton, Somerset and Wiltshire.
Whether you own a large property, run a home-based business such as a small kitchen, or simply want to protect your drains, we’ll help you install and maintain an effective drainage interceptor system tailored to your property.
Domestic drain interceptors (sometimes called separators or traps) are designed to catch contaminants before they reach your drainage pipes. Even at the household level, grease, oil, debris and silt can cause significant blockages over time, leading to expensive repairs or environmental pollution.
Benefits of installing a domestic interceptor include:
A properly installed and maintained interceptor ensures your household drains stay free-flowing and more resilient during heavy rainfall or high usage periods.
We offer a full range of interceptor services designed for residential properties:
Our goal is to provide reliable protection for your home’s drainage system with minimal disruption to your day-to-day life.
We visit your property to assess your drainage layout, usage and any problem areas.
Based on your needs, we recommend the most appropriate interceptor size, type and location.
We install the interceptor with minimal disturbance, ensuring correct integration with your existing drainage
The system is checked to ensure water flow and separation work correctly.
We offer routine emptying and cleaning to keep the system working efficiently.
We identify any issues early and carry out minor repairs on site when required.
