Steak N' Shake Closed for Leak in Coral Springs: Restaurant Inspections

ByWarren Redlich


Our latest inspection report is one of the better ones we’ve seen, with no restaurant getting more than 15 violations and no more than 7 marked high priority. While its numbers weren’t that bad, Steak N’ Shake in Coral Springs was temporarily closed on June 7th, apparently due to a roof leak that got into the food. They will need someone like Ace Roofing Texas – Commercial Roofing to come and fix the leak as soon as possible in order to start trading again. Roof leaks can be dangerous, so it’s vital that this restaurant does all they can to prevent this from happening again. Hopefully, they will get the roof repaired and maintained soon, ensuring that it’s all secure. It’s likely that roofers will probably use some roof and gutter silicone to fill in any gaps that may be in the roof. This should prevent any more leaks from happening, keeping the restaurant safe, and they should be able to open again soon.

The sooner the problem is solved, the less damage it will cause.
