Your A Grade Is Your Business License.

NYC's restaurant market is unforgiving. A B grade in your window costs you covers every day it's posted. A DOH closure costs you everything. Broadway Pest builds the kitchen-safe IPM programs and compliance documentation that protect your grade, your license, and your reputation — with same-day emergency response when you need it most.

DOH deduction — one live roach
A single live cockroach during a DOH inspection costs 28 points. That's the gap between an A and a C. One sighting. One grade change. Posted in your window for every customer to see.

The DOH Reality

Unannounced.
Unforgiving. Every time.

A→C
One Sighting = Grade Drop
NYC DOH inspectors score violations on sight. A live rodent or cockroach observation is 28 points — instantly dropping a clean kitchen from A to C. There is no warning. There is no grace period. There is only the grade that gets posted in your window within 24 hours of inspection.
48h
The Re-Inspection Window
If you receive a B or C grade, you have 48 hours to request a re-inspection. If you pass the re-inspection, you can post the A grade. This is your most critical recovery window — and why Broadway Pest is on call for pre-re-inspection emergency treatment the moment you call.

Revenue Impact
Research on NYC restaurant grades shows that a B grade reduces weekly covers by 12–18% on average. A posted C grade — even temporarily — can permanently affect Yelp and Google ratings, delivery platform rankings, and customer trust. Prevention costs a fraction of one week of reduced revenue.
Our Restaurant Program

Kitchen-safe.
Always inspection-ready.

Our restaurant IPM programs are built around your DOH inspection calendar, your kitchen operating hours, and the specific pest threats your location faces. Every product we use is food-service approved and can be applied without closing your kitchen.

  • 01
    Kitchen Risk Assessment
    Full kitchen, storage, and utility inspection. Pest entry points, harborage zones, and activity areas mapped. Species identified — German and American cockroaches require completely different protocols, and we treat them differently.
  • 02
    Zero-Disruption Treatment
    All treatments performed before or after kitchen hours. Gel bait applied at harborage sites — no aerosol contamination of food prep surfaces. Your kitchen opens on schedule. No exceptions.
  • 03
    DOH-Ready Documentation
    Every service produces a digital log showing active IPM engagement. When a DOH inspector asks what your pest control program looks like, you hand them a complete documented record — not a verbal answer.
  • 04
    Pre-Inspection Emergency Response
    DOH notice received? Re-inspection window open? Call us. We dispatch within 4 hours, treat the kitchen, and provide dated documentation showing active IPM response before the inspector returns.
Free Assessment

A senior technician walks your property, identifies the threat, and gives you a straight protection plan — no obligation.
