Commercial Grease Containment & Rooftop Cleanup in Mesa, AZ | Grease Cleanup

Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. performs commercial grease containment and rooftop cleanup in Mesa, AZ for restaurants, hotels, and strip centers, because exhaust fans push grease onto the roof every hour a kitchen runs. Pads and pans catch most of it at first, but once they saturate, the overflow spreads across the membrane and eats into TPO and modified bitumen.

Summer heat thins that grease so it travels farther, and monsoon rain then carries it toward the drains. The same film makes roof walkways slick, which puts your own staff at risk. Our crews have worked Mesa roofs for 20 years, and they match their methods to the surface, using non-caustic degreaser and low pressure so seams stay sealed.

Our teams also swap saturated pads and filters, since fresh absorbent stops the next spill before it starts. Each job closes with written disposal records and photos, which give your landlord and insurer something concrete to file. Property managers in Gilbert and Tempe call us for the same reason, because a clean roof costs less than a repaired one.

Commercial Grease Containment & Rooftop Cleanup in Mesa, AZ

Commercial Kitchen Grease Containment Cleanup

Commercial kitchen grease containment cleanup empties and scrubs the pans, pads, and boxes that catch what your exhaust fan throws off. Our licensed technicians swap saturated absorbent pads, wash the tray with heated degreaser, and haul the waste off site in sealed drums.

Hotel and hospital roofs with several fans get one coordinated sweep. Containers return below overflow level, so nothing runs toward the roof drain.

Restaurant Grease Containment Cleanup

Restaurant grease containment cleanup stops fryer vapor from streaking your roof and walls with brown stains. Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. clears the weep holes in each fan base, wipes the housing, and replaces cracked drip cups before they spill. Strip-center restaurants, where several tenants share one roof, gain the most from this routine. Landlords notice roof stains quickly, and a clean fan base ends those phone calls.

Rooftop Grease Containment Cleanup

Rooftop grease containment cleanup protects the roof itself, since grease breaks down TPO and modified bitumen membranes over time. Our roof crew lays absorbent pads around each fan, scrubs stained membrane with non-caustic degreaser, and recovers rinse water with a wet vacuum instead of letting it reach a drain. Low pressure keeps grease from being forced under seams. Cleaner membranes last longer between roof repairs.

Commercial Exhaust Grease Cleanup

Commercial exhaust grease cleanup tackles grease that escaped the system, such as drips from duct seams, access doors, and fan bases onto ceilings, walls, and roofs. Our experts trace each stain back to its leak path, scrub the surface, and replace the gasket or seam sealant that failed. The stain stays gone because the source gets fixed. Landlords and insurers see photos of both the cleanup and the repair.

Hardened Grease Removal

Hardened grease removal deals with the varnish-like crust that Mesa's heat bakes onto roofs and fan housings. Our technicians soften it with heated degreaser, lift it with plastic scrapers that spare the membrane, and finish with a hot-water rinse. With our team's help, crust that took years to form often comes off in a single visit. Surfaces return to their original color, and the slick film that makes roof walkways risky disappears.

Emergency Grease Containment Cleanup

Emergency grease containment cleanup answers overflow, such as a monsoon storm that fills a containment box and floats grease toward the roof drain. Mesa Hood & Exhaust Co. dams drains with absorbent socks first, then vacuums standing grease and scrubs the surrounding membrane. Our crew photographs the spill for your insurer and landlord. Fast action keeps grease out of storm drains and off neighboring properties.

Five-Stage Commercial Grease Containment & Rooftop Cleanup Process for Mesa, AZ Kitchens

Step 1: Roof Walk-Through

Our technicians inspect every fan base, pan, and box, then photograph stains and worn pads so the job starts with a clear record.

Step 2: Drain Protection

Absorbent socks go around roof drains and scuppers, which keeps rinse water and loosened grease on the roof until the crew recovers it.

Step 3: Pad and Pan Service

Crews pull saturated pads and filters, empty each pan or box, and install fresh absorbent before any scrubbing begins. That order stops new grease from reaching the membrane mid-cleanup.

Step 4: Membrane Cleaning

Non-caustic degreaser softens stains, and plastic scrapers lift hardened crust without cutting the surface. A wet vacuum then pulls up the rinse water.

Step 5: Disposal and Records

Used grease and soaked pads go into sealed containers for approved disposal, and the crew logs each fan base in your report.

Commercial Grease Containment & Rooftop Cleanup Costs in Mesa, AZ

Price tracks the amount of grease on your roof more than the size of your building. A single fan with fresh overflow takes little time, while five fans with crust that baked through a summer need extra dwell time, hand scraping, and several rounds of pad changes.

Rooftop cleanup usually includes a rooftop exhaust fan cleaning visit, so Angi's national range for kitchen hood cleaning, $200 to $1,500 with a $450 average, gives you a fair reference point. Your own number comes after our technicians walk the roof and count the fans, which lets the estimate match the work instead of a guess.
