Who We Work With
Restaurants depend on hot water, clear kitchen drains, and the backflow assemblies that protect ice machines, soda systems, and dish areas. Churches often have older restrooms, kitchens, and irrigation that only get attention when something breaks. Offices and retail buildings need restrooms that work for staff and customers every day. Property managers need one plumber who can handle several buildings and keep the backflow records straight.
Whatever kind of building you run, you will deal with Glenn directly. He is a licensed master plumber who shows up, does the work, and follows through.
Signs Your Business Needs a Commercial Plumber
- Your water provider sent a backflow test notice or a compliance letter.
- A restroom fixture keeps running, clogging, or leaking.
- Your kitchen drains are slow or backing up.
- Hot water runs out during busy hours.
- Your water bill went up and your use did not.
- You are opening, remodeling, or taking over a building and need the plumbing checked.
Commercial Plumbing Compared With Home Plumbing
Commercial buildings have more fixtures, heavier use, and more rules. Flushometer toilets and urinals work differently from home toilets, and most commercial buildings have one or more backflow assemblies that must be tested every year.
Commercial properties, including restaurants, retail buildings, churches, and offices, receive the same plumbing and backflow services we provide to residential customers. The care is the same. The difference is that we plan around your business hours and your compliance deadlines.
For restaurants, churches, and property managers
Annual Backflow Testing for Businesses
Restaurants, churches, offices, retail buildings, apartment complexes, and properties with irrigation systems all have backflow assemblies that need a yearly test. We test every assembly on the property, including fire lines, and file the report with your water provider. If one fails, we repair it on-site, retest it, and submit the updated report.

Commercial Plumbing Questions
Do you test backflow assemblies on fire lines?
Yes. Many commercial buildings have a backflow assembly on the fire sprinkler line, and it needs testing like any other assembly. We test fire line assemblies, repair them if they fail, and submit the report to your water provider. Call or text with your notice and we will get it scheduled.
Do you work with property managers?
Yes. If you manage several buildings, we can test every backflow assembly, handle repairs, and keep the reports organized for each property. You get one licensed master plumber for the plumbing and the backflow work, instead of juggling separate contractors.
Do you work on commercial buildings?
Yes. Commercial properties, including restaurants, retail buildings, churches, and offices, receive the same plumbing and backflow services we provide to residential customers.
Can you install drinking fountains?
Yes. We install and repair wall-mounted drinking fountains in commercial buildings, including dual-height (hi-lo) fountains with a higher and a lower bowl. Our gallery has photos of recent fountain installations. Call or text and tell us what you have in mind.
