Why Boh

Why a network beats a single vendor for emergency repair

Specialists
Specialists, not generalists
Vendors in our network focus on a single equipment type. They’re faster, more thorough, and carry the right parts for your specific make and model.
Coverage
More technicians, more availability
A network of specialists covers more neighborhoods and more service windows than any single in-house team. That means faster response when something breaks at 7am or 9pm.
Documented
Every job is documented and reviewed
Before and after photos, service reports, and parts records are required on every visit. Vendors know each job is tracked. That visibility keeps quality high.
Accountable
Underperformance has consequences
If a technician misses a slot, cuts corners, or mis-bills, they’re removed from the network. Boh holds them accountable so you don’t have to.

Issues we resolve

Problems we fix with drain overflowing

urgent
Kitchen Drain Backing Up
Slow or completely blocked kitchen drains are often caused by a full or failing grease trap. In LA County, a backed-up drain that reaches the floor is a health code violation.

Sewage Smell in Kitchen or Dining Room
A persistent sewage or sulfur smell is often a sign that your grease trap is full and gases are escaping back into the building through the drain lines.
Prevention

This is preventable with restaurant hydro jetting

High-pressure water jetting clears grease, scale, and debris from drain lines that snaking can't reach. It's the only method that fully restores pipe capacity and prevents the recurring backups that slow kitchens during service.
