Common Commercial Plumbing Problems

Call us today at 314-856-3262

Issues with your building’s plumbing can be stressful, but that stress can be compounded in the case of a commercial building. Plumbing emergencies can impact your ability to do business and serve customers properly, so understanding common problems for commercial properties will help you identify them quickly and alleviate unnecessary downtime.

Drain Clogs

Clogs can happen on a regular basis, particularly in restaurants or other commercial properties where food can end up in your drains. A clogged drain seems like an easy fix, and sometimes your plunger will do the trick. However, other times a clog can indicate a more serious plumbing problem down the line. Don’t risk damaging your pipes even more by trying DIY chemical mixtures or mechanical devices and let Nu Flow handle your drain cleaning services.

Leaky Pipes

Leaks are not only a nuisance, but they can lead to property damage and sudden spikes in your utility bills. It can be relatively easy for leaks to go unnoticed for a period of time. What starts as a small hairline crack can quickly grow with time and lead to mold and other problems. Leaks can occur in your pipes or in your fixtures, so be aware of any drips, puddles, or other water damage around your commercial property.

Sewer Backup

Between your daily operations, your staff, and your customers, your sewer line probably experiences near-constant usage. A sewer backup is inconvenient, but can also lead to a health hazard if an overflow occurs. Additionally, the off-putting smell of sewage can be a deterrent for customers. When backups occur, it’s important to treat them quickly to avoid an overflow or other hazardous problems.
