WHY IT MATTERS FOR YOUR KITCHEN
Your Kitchen Runs on Plumbing That Residential Plumbers Don't Touch.
Commercial kitchens operate under a set of compliance obligations that residential plumbing shops aren't equipped to handle — FOG pretreatment programs, fire marshal gas line requirements, health department inspections, and backflow mandates that carry fines if they lapse.
We've been the plumbing contractor for commercial kitchens since 1997. We handle the grease traps, the gas connections, the floor drains, and the emergency calls — and we deliver the documentation the health department, your landlord, and your sewer authority expect to see on file.
One contractor. Every plumbing system in your kitchen. Scheduled around your hours, not ours.
FULL SCOPE, ALL IN-HOUSE
Every Plumbing System in Your Kitchen. One Contractor.
Restaurants touch more plumbing service lines than almost any other commercial operation. Instead of calling three vendors for three problems, you call one.
Grease Trap Service
Licensed pumping, cleaning, inspection, and state manifest documentation. Recurring programs built around your kitchen's output and your local FOG compliance schedule.
Drain & Sewer Cleaning
Kitchen floor drains, mainlines, and grease-impacted lines cleared with cable machines and hydro-jetting. Camera inspection to verify the line is clean and identify any structural issues.
Gas Line Work
Equipment connections for ranges, fryers, ovens, and broilers. New buildout gas runs from meter to kitchen. Leak detection, pressure testing, and permitted repairs.
Water Heater Service
Commercial water heaters sized for high-demand kitchen and dish operation. Repair, replacement, and scheduled maintenance with code-compliant installation.
Backflow Testing
Annual compliance testing and certification required by your local water authority. We handle scheduling, testing, county filing, and repair if a device fails.
Emergency Response
Grease backups, gas leaks, flooding, and sewer failures — 24/7 dispatch with a 2-hour P1 response target. We respond around your hours because kitchen downtime costs more than the service call.
WHO WE SERVE
Every Type of Commercial Kitchen Operation.
-
Restaurants & Full Service Dining
High-volume kitchens with continuous grease discharge, multiple gas appliances, and floor drains that take a beating every shift. We build service programs around your output, not a generic schedule.
-
Fast Casual, QSR & Multi-Location Groups
Consistent plumbing across every location. One vendor, one rate sheet, consolidated invoicing. We manage grease trap schedules independently for each site and deliver one report to your operations team.
-
Hotels & Banquet Operations
Multiple kitchen zones, seasonal volume swings, and grease traps that serve different areas of the property. We coordinate across all zones and adjust frequency when kitchen output changes.
-
Food Halls, Bakeries & Catering Facilities
Shared kitchen infrastructure, multiple tenants on a single sewer lateral, and under-sink traps that need independent service schedules. We manage each device separately and deliver consolidated documentation.
COMPLIANCE & DOCUMENTATION
The Paperwork Your Kitchen Needs on File.
What Your Sewer Authority Requires
California's FOG pretreatment program places the compliance burden on the kitchen operator. Here's what inspectors expect to see when they walk in.
- Grease trap maintenance records with state manifests proving licensed waste hauling to an approved facility. An undocumented service is treated the same as no service at all.
- Cleaning frequency tied to your trap's capacity — the standard is service before the trap reaches 25% of total capacity with grease and solids.
- Backflow test reports filed annually with your local water authority. Lapsed certifications can result in water service suspension.
- Gas line permits and pressure test documentation for any new equipment connections or modifications — required by the fire marshal and building department.
What We Deliver After Every Service
Every visit to your kitchen generates documentation you can file, show to an inspector, or forward to your landlord.
State Manifests
Grease waste manifests issued same day. Proof of licensed hauling and legal disposal at an approved facility — the document your sewer authority requires.
Service Reports
Written field reports with condition findings, work performed, and recommendations. Before/after documentation on every job.
Backflow Certificates
Test results filed with the county and a copy for your records. We track your renewal date and contact you before the deadline.
Permit Documentation
For gas line work, water heater replacement, and any scope that requires a building permit — we pull it, schedule the inspection, and close it out.
Kitchen Down? We Respond Same Day.
Grease backup during service, gas smell near the line, drain flooding the kitchen floor — every hour of downtime is lost revenue. We dispatch with a 2-hour emergency response target.

The Contractor Kitchen Operators Keep on Speed Dial.
"We manage eight restaurant locations across Orange County, all on different grease trap schedules. California Coast Plumbers consolidated everything into one program. One call, one invoice, and every location has a current manifest on file. The health department has never once flagged a grease trap issue since we switched."
Operations Director — Restaurant Group, Orange County
"We had a grease backup on a Saturday night before a full house. Called California Coast Plumbers at 7 PM and they were on-site by 9. Cleared the line, pumped the trap, left us with a manifest. We opened Sunday morning like nothing happened. That's the contractor you keep on speed dial."
General Manager — Full Service Restaurant, Irvine
"When we opened our second location, we needed gas lines run for the entire kitchen — range, fryer bank, oven, water heater. CCP handled the permit, ran the lines, coordinated with our GC, and passed inspection on the first attempt. Now they handle the grease traps and drain maintenance at both locations."
Owner — Two-Location Restaurant Concept, LA County
