A restaurant that smells like the kitchen from the front door loses tables. Most of the time the cause is one of four things, and none of them require closing for days.
The four usual sources
Hood and duct buildup, a failing grease trap seal, walk-in door gaskets, and saturated ceiling tiles above the line.
Why the dining room smells
Negative pressure. If the hood pulls more than the make-up air supplies, kitchen air migrates into the dining room every time a door opens.
After-hours scheduling
We work overnight or on your closed day so you open on schedule, and we can provide a certificate of insurance on request.
The short version
- ✓Check make-up air before blaming cleaning
- ✓Ceiling tiles above the line hold odor
- ✓Overnight service keeps you open
Want it handled instead?
We treat homes, vehicles, rentals and businesses across Dallas-Fort Worth, usually same or next day. If the odor comes back, so do we.
