About ShineIQ
Every grease & oil service. One partner.
ShineIQ was built to simplify commercial kitchen grease and oil management. Hood and exhaust cleaning, grease traps, used cooking oil, rooftop grease, and exterior cleaning usually mean separate vendors. We bring them under one accountable partner.
Where we came from
Built on kitchen exhaust cleaning. Grown into every grease & oil service.
ShineIQ grew out of commercial kitchen exhaust cleaning: work done after close, inside ductwork and on rooftops, where operators rarely see it. Doing that work well taught us how much depends on documentation and follow-through, and how much time kitchen teams lose coordinating a different vendor for every stage of grease and oil. So we built one partner for all of it.
One Vendor. One Standard. One Invoice.

Our purpose
Strengthen individuals, families, and organizations by helping them GLOW
It’s a cycle, not a checklist. Work creates the chance to grow. Growth creates the appetite to learn. Learning earns opportunity. Opportunity leads to better work. Then it starts again.
We’re a commercial kitchen grease and oil services company, but the work is the vehicle, not the point. Someone can start here with no experience, learn a real trade, grow into more responsibility, and build a career and a household on it. Clean kitchens are what it produces.
Our values
The 5 H’s.
Five words we hire for, train to, and hold each other accountable to on every job, in every state.
Honest.
If your system doesn’t need service yet, we’ll tell you. We’d rather lose an invoice than sell you work you don’t need. When we find a problem, we show you the photo and let you decide.
Humble.
No part of this job is beneath us. The work that matters most is the work nobody will ever see: the horizontal runs, the vertical rise, the underside of the fan housing.
Hungry.
We answer the phone. We show up on the day we said, at the hour we said. We track when your system is due and reach out before it is.
Healthy.
This work is physical and it happens at night. We build schedules people can sustain and don’t cut corners on safety to save an hour. Burned-out people do careless work, and careless work in this trade starts fires.
Hardworking.
Long nights on rooftops in January are the job. We hire people who are fine with that, and we make sure it’s worth it.
Our focus
Trust has to be earned with evidence.
In a trade where so much of the work happens out of sight, our service model is built around clear documentation, communication, and follow-through. Where applicable, customers receive service records, photos, and compliance documentation, so they don’t have to guess what was done, and neither does their inspector, insurance carrier, or landlord.
“We didn’t add documentation because it’s good marketing. We added it because you shouldn’t have to trust a stranger about something you can’t see.”
Our promise
Less Stress. More Trust.
The dual promise is deliberate. A company that’s stressful to work for becomes a company that’s stressful to hire. So we hold the same standard in both directions: clear expectations, no surprises, and follow-through on what we said we’d do.
For you, that means one vendor, one standard, and one invoice for every grease and oil service. We track your service intervals, show up on schedule, and have the paperwork done before you ask for it.
Less Stress. More Trust.
