Commercial Plumbing Emergencies
Plumbing emergencies in a commercial environment differ slightly from those in residential settings, as locating the source of any affected areas, such as leaks behind walls or underground, can take a bit longer.
Whether you have broken water heaters, several overflowing toilets, or a water main break, disasters like that can’t wait. When water is working its way up into your lawn or sewage is seeping out of your drains, there isn't time to figure out the solution yourself. Serious issues can cause rapid damage that requires time and money to repair.
Our expert team is available to help commercial property owners in Calgary with rapid, effective responses to catastrophes. We've seen it all, and we already have a solution ready to help you. Count on us to arrive as soon as possible to prevent any damage from escalating. Our Calgary commercial plumbing solutions are designed to bring you peace of mind and lasting solutions to all of your plumbing emergencies.
Water Heater Service
These are crucial units in Calgary’s commercial buildings, primarily because they are designed to run constantly, depending on your building’s size and type of business. Most hot water tanks can store between 150 and 500 gallons, efficiently withstanding wear and tear, unlike standard water heaters found in residential homes. For this reason, they need reliable maintenance to supply the entire building with sufficient hot water throughout the day.
That said, some commercial property owners have upgraded to tankless water heaters for increased energy efficiency and reduced monthly costs. Commercial plumbers can help you calculate your energy efficiency if you decide to switch from traditional tank-based water heaters to tankless water heaters, which provide hot water on demand.
You may need to install several ones if you own a corporate building with multiple departments or floors. This way, you ensure you won’t run out of hot water, which can happen with tankless units. Signs you need repair include rust on the tank or in the water. If it makes strange rumbling noises, it may be due to sediment buildup, indicating the need for a flush service.
Plumbing Fixture
Many commercial buildings have installed highly efficient toilets and faucets with hands-free systems. It’s not uncommon to encounter the occasional clogged toilet or cracked bowl. We fix toilets, sinks, showers, and appliances connected to drain lines. We provide dependable and high-quality repairs for plumbing and heating fixtures, so you can be sure that your clients are getting the hot water they need.
Calgary Commercial Plumbing Repairs
Besides routine drain cleaning, we recommend a detailed inspection of your valves, fittings, and fixtures to ensure they’re in decent condition. It’s easy to take our plumbing system for granted because we rely on it every day, whether taking a shower or flushing the toilet. Your commercial plumbing system will eventually succumb to wear and tear, despite regular maintenance.
In many cases, old age is the culprit, and we recommend upgrading to energy-efficient fixtures and modern plumbing lines. If you need plumbing installations, repairs, or replacements, we guarantee that we will get it done right the first time. The most common commercial repair services we offer include:
Pipe Repairs
Unnoticed plumbing issues come in many forms and can cause catastrophic damage to your business. Our Calgary commercial plumbing team can quickly determine whether you have a leaking pipe or water damage. An undetected burst pipe could lose over one thousand gallons of water within 24 hours. Or slab leaks could compromise your property’s structural integrity. Checking your water meter regularly will confirm your water lines are leak-free. If you’re ever unsure and would prefer a detailed inspection, you can count on your commercial plumber to offer cost-effective solutions that promote the overall health of your plumbing system. Typical causes that call for repair include:
- Clogs: A backed-up toilet or slow-draining sink spreading sewer gas smells could indicate a clogged p-trap, drain, or sewer line. A certified commercial plumber would use a sewer camera to inspect the affected pipe. Unless it’s known that you have sewer line issues, we will access it via your cleanout pipe (usually located outside or at your commercial building’s lowest level).
- Frozen: When you don’t insulate your outdoor pipes and other fixtures that are located in non-heated areas, they will freeze. Frozen pipes only burst when water pressure rushes through them; some homeowners may have experienced it. Our Calgary commercial plumbing experts are always equipped with the right winterization tools, so if you spot the freeze early enough, we’ll help you thaw your frozen pipes and offer insulation wraps. One tip is to remember to drain water from lines that you won’t be using in the winter (i.e., outdoor faucets) and turn off the corresponding shut-off valve accordingly.
- Corrosion: Cast iron pipes in older homes are susceptible to corrosion. Sometimes we can save certain sections by replacing parts with PVC, but unfortunately, old and worn cast iron will only deteriorate further, making a replacement inevitable.
HydroScrub® Jetting
This is an advanced plumbing tool designed for clearing clogs and debris from pipes located behind walls or underground. It’s highly superior to its snaking counterparts because it uses high-pressure water. The average psi level used for hydro jetting ranges from 1500 to 3500. It’s essential to note that we only use the hydro jet after a thorough inspection, as not all piping systems can withstand high water pressure, especially in older plumbing systems. Our professionals know how to use hydro jetting properly and will minimize damage to your plumbing lines. We also utilize augers and motorized drain snakes as part of our services for drain cleaning in Calgary.
