Why Should I Hire A Commercial Plumber?

Commercial plumbing tends to experience more usage than that of a residential plumbing system. It is common for business owners to assume that any type of plumber will serve their needs and they can continue on with normal operations. This is not necessarily the case and there are a few good reasons why you should hire the right plumber to suit your plumbing needs.

• Commercial plumbers require a set of skills and expertise that differ to a residential plumber. While most plumbing problems are similar in both cases, commercial facilities are likely to experience a bigger range of issues that can affect the operation of their day-to-day operations. Because of the complexity of a commercial plumbing system, there is a greater risk when damage occurs. A commercial plumber will be aware of this and will be better equipped to handle this.


• The layout of a commercial plumbing system will be much larger, more spread out, and more complicated than that of an average home. Commercial buildings consist of multiple floors, toilets, and sinks that are used on a daily basis; this can put a plumbing system under pressure if there are any underlying issues. An experienced commercial plumber knows their way around such a complex plumbing system and will be familiar with the common plumbing repairs that need to be done.


• Experience. Although the piping installed in a commercial building should be more durable, leaks do occur. Considering the complexity of this type of plumbing, leaks can be hard to locate. Commercial plumbers that are experienced with this type of plumbing are able to conduct repairs more efficiently should there be a problem.


• Current code and regulation adherence. Commercial buildings have codes and regulations that they must adhere to in order to legally operate and commercial plumbing repairs should maintain these codes and regulations.

Common Commercial Plumbing Repairs

With the vast size of a plumbing system in a commercial building and the consistent usage thereof, there are a few common plumbing issues that can occur:

• Leaking faucets are common; however, they can lead to huge amounts of water waste that will end up costing you hundreds of dollars if not fixed quickly. Water leaks that don’t present themselves upfront but show up on your water bill are a bit more difficult to diagnose. This may indicate that there is a leak behind a wall in the building. If this is not fixed right away, it could lead to bigger issues for the building like mold, which you certainly want to avoid.


• Running toilets could be an indicator of a bigger problem and can also lead to large amounts of water waste.


• Clogged drains occur in almost all plumbing systems. The problem with commercial toilet drain clogs is that foreign objects tend to get flushed more often than in a residential property. If left ignored, drain clogs can lead to back-ups throughout the building and affect more than just one toilet. Clogged drains are also not a good representation of your business, so, if you spot the makings of a toilet clog, you’ll want call in a commercial plumber right away.


• Low water pressure in large buildings is not uncommon; it can be a sign of a burst pipe or a leak somewhere along the lines. High-rise buildings are especially prone to issues with water pressure due to their size. Commercial plumbers are experienced with the techniques to diagnose and correct these issues.


• Sewer smells indicate that there is a blockage in the building’s plumbing system. The blockage will need to be located and with the use of specialized tools and equipment, blockages can be detected in your main sewer line.
