Grease trap cleaning. Prep sink repair. Floor drain maintenance. Commercial water heaters. Backflow testing. Pacific Line's restaurant division serves 42 restaurants across Los Angeles and San Diego — with most work scheduled between 10pm and 6am so you never close your kitchen. After-hours included on maintenance contracts. Compliance paperwork handled.
From daily grease trap maintenance to emergency dinner-service backups, we handle every plumbing system in your restaurant — scheduled during your closed hours so your revenue never takes a hit.
Scheduled or emergency pump-out of grease interceptors and traps. We remove accumulated FOG (fats, oils, grease), document the residual level, and provide health-department compliance paperwork. Required every 30–90 days depending on volume.
Backed-up prep sinks, leaking dish sinks, clogged 3-compartment sinks, broken supply valves. We dispatch immediately for dinner-service emergencies — average 42-minute arrival to get your kitchen running again.
Kitchen floor drains, walk-in cooler drains, dish room floor drains — the drains that handle grease, food debris, and cleaning chemicals. Regular hydro jetting prevents backups that shut down your kitchen.
Annual testing required by LADWP and SD County Water Authority on all commercial backflow prevention devices. Our certified testers perform the test, file the paperwork with the water authority, and flag devices that need repair.
High-capacity tanks, commercial tankless, recirculation systems. We service Rheem Commercial, Rinnai C-Series, AO Smith — with annual flushes, descaling, and same-day replacement when needed.
4,000 PSI hydro jetting for main kitchen lines clogged with hardened grease, food debris, and scale. The right tool for recurring kitchen drain issues that snaking can't solve. Quarterly for high-volume kitchens.
Two compliance documents every restaurant needs — and both are included with our maintenance contracts.
LA County Health Department and SD County Health Department require restaurants to maintain grease traps at 25% capacity or less and provide documentation at each health inspection. Every grease trap cleaning we perform includes:
LADWP (LA) and SD County Water Authority require annual backflow prevention testing on all commercial water supplies. Failure to test results in fines and potential water service interruption. Our certified testers handle everything:
Restaurants can't shut down during service. That's why 90% of our restaurant plumbing work happens between 10pm and 6am — after your kitchen closes, before prep starts the next morning. We coordinate with your manager to schedule every maintenance visit during your slowest hours.
After-hours service carries a modest premium over standard rates for non-contract clients, quoted flat-rate upfront. For maintenance contract clients, after-hours work is included in the standard rate — no premium, no surprise charges.
It happens to every restaurant eventually. Here's what happens when you call — and why our restaurant clients know exactly what to expect.
Call (310) 555-0134 (LA) or (619) 555-0247 (SD) and tell us it's a restaurant emergency. Our dispatcher treats it as priority — same as a residential burst pipe.
The nearest available technician is routed to your restaurant. You get a text with their name, photo, and live GPS-tracked ETA. Average arrival: 42 minutes across both counties.
We pump the trap, clear the line, and get your kitchen running — usually within 60–90 minutes of arrival.
90% of our work happens between 10pm and 6am. Maintenance contracts include after-hours service at standard rates — no premium, no surprise charges.
Grease trap compliance docs and backflow testing paperwork handled. You never miss a deadline or fail an inspection because of plumbing.
When your prep sink backs up at 7pm on a Saturday, we treat it as priority emergency. Average arrival: 42 minutes.
Same technician visits every time. They know your grease trap size, your floor drain locations, your backflow devices, and your manager's name. No re-explaining your kitchen every call.
Quarterly inspections catch grease buildup before it backs up, scale before it blocks, and device wear before it fails. Emergency calls drop 60% in the first year of a contract.
LA County Health Department requires grease traps to be cleaned when they reach 25% capacity — typically every 30–90 days for most restaurants, depending on volume. High-volume kitchens may need monthly service.
We offer scheduled grease trap cleaning contracts that keep you compliant and prevent emergency backups during service.

We pump the trap, clear the line, and get your kitchen running again.
Yes. Every grease trap cleaning includes compliance documentation that satisfies LA County and SD County Health Department requirements. We provide you with a dated, stamped certificate showing the pump-out volume and residual level — ready for your next health inspection.
Contract clients get automatic compliance paperwork filed on schedule.
They're two different compliance requirements. Backflow testing checks that your backflow prevention device is working correctly to stop contaminated water from flowing back into the public water supply — required annually by LADWP (LA) or SD County Water Authority.
Grease trap cleaning removes accumulated FOG (fats, oils, grease) from your grease interceptor — required by the Health Department every 30–90 days. We handle both.
We install the plumbing connections for commercial dishwashers — water supply lines, drain connections, air gap installation, and grease interceptor connections if required. We don't install the dishwasher unit itself (that's the appliance dealer or general contractor's job), but we handle all the plumbing work so it's health-department compliant and ready for the health inspector.
4,000 PSI water pressure scours kitchen main lines clean — removes hardened grease, food debris, and scale that snaking can't touch. Quarterly for high-volume kitchens.
