Problems Addressed by Commercial Plumbing Repair
admin • February 26, 2014

Commercial plumbing problems can have a devastating effect on your business. Your employees can’t do their jobs if they can’t use the sink or the bathroom, and plumbing problems for a restaurant or catering business means you won’t be able to properly prepare your food. Here in Olympia, plumber services need to be able to differentiate between plumbing needs in the home and those faced by a commercial endeavor. Commercial plumbing repair services are well versed in the unique problems face by businesses with plumbing issues.

Here’s a short list of some common problems addressed by commercial plumbing repair:

  • Code upgrades.  Businesses, schools and other endeavors with commercial plumbing issues need to comply with federal, state and local codes as to their safety and functioning. Those codes frequently change, but you can’t always keep up with them, since you have a business to run. A good commercial plumbing service will keep abreast of the latest codes, and can perform upgrades to ensure that your plumbing system stays up to date.
  • Grease traps. Grease traps work to prevent clogs by catching the fat, oil and other waste products produced when you cook. This is of especial concern to commercial plumbing systems since restaurants handle large amounts of food and grease can build up very quickly. A commercial plumbing service can handle any problems with your grease trap, and ensure that your drain flow remains free and clear.
  • Clogged floor drains. A clogged floor drain can bring your business to a halt: preventing proper cleaning of the floors and even flooding your kitchen area in the right circumstances. Efficiency in these cases means working quickly: unclogging the floor drain to let you get back to work and then rooting out the source of the problem to make sure it doesn’t return.

If you encounter any problems addressed by commercial plumbing repair, then make sure you contact a service that can handle commercial issues, and not just residential plumbing. Plumbing services can be provided by an  Olympia plumber at Brooks Plumbing. We work quickly and efficiently, and we’re dedicated to keeping your commercial plumbing system functioning at the best possible level. Call us today to set up an appointment. You’ll be glad you did!
