RECCH 0400:00:00Restaurant Drain Inspection explained.
Commercial kitchens put more grease, food and water down their drains than any house, and every shutdown costs a service. The best time to find a weak line is on a quiet morning.
We inspect floor drains, trough drains, grease trap outlets and the building’s main on a schedule that avoids service. The footage shows grease thickness, damage and where cleaning is needed, and builds a record for your maintenance file.
