About KitchenGuard

The problem we're solving

Hampton Roads restaurant operators deserve better

When a walk-in fails on a Saturday night, most restaurant owners in Hampton Roads are making calls to a national dispatch company — one that might get a technician on site in two days, charges a premium for the wait, and sends a different tech every time.

Independent single-trade contractors exist, but they don't cover everything. Refrigeration tech can't touch the HVAC. HVAC tech won't look at the fryer. You're managing three vendor relationships and hoping each one shows up.

KitchenGuard is built to be the one call. Refrigeration, HVAC, ventilation, cooking equipment, minor electrical, plumbing, gas — one company, one relationship, one invoice.

What we stand for

How we work

Transparent pricing, always

Flat rates published upfront. No surprise overtime. PM contract clients know their rate before we show up.

Written reports after every visit

You get a written condition report after every PM visit — not just a verbal "it's fine." Know the state of your equipment.

We show up when we say we will

Priority PM clients get same business day response. Premier clients get 2-hour response, around the clock.

One vendor, all equipment

We built the scope to cover everything in a commercial kitchen — not because it's easy, but because it's what operators actually need.
