Protect Your Rooffrom Kitchen Grease.

System size depends on your exhaust equipment capacity, cooking volume, and roof type. High-volume operations (fast food, high-volume restaurants) need larger containment with more frequent cleaning. We assess your specific situation and design a system that provides adequate protection with practical maintenance requirements.

Properly installed grease containment actually helps preserve your warranty by preventing grease damage. However, improper installation can void warranties. We follow manufacturer guidelines and coordinate with warranty providers to ensure your containment system maintains full warranty coverage.

Maintenance frequency depends on cooking volume and grease output. High-volume operations may need monthly cleaning, while lower-volume kitchens might require quarterly service. We provide maintenance recommendations and can set up regular service schedules for commercial kitchen clients.

Yes, we regularly retrofit grease containment systems to existing roofs. The key is proper membrane protection during installation and appropriate flashing details at transition points. We assess your current roof condition and design systems that integrate properly with your existing roofing.

Without containment, grease will damage your roof membrane, potentially requiring premature replacement ($10-20+ per sq ft). You may face EPA fines for stormwater violations (up to $25,000+ per day). Insurance claims for grease-related damage are often denied. Most jurisdictions require containment for code compliance.
