Commercial Plumbers: What Can They Fix In My Building?

Caledonian Heating • 30 January 2024

We all rely on plumbing on a daily basis to facilitate our access to clean water and hygiene facilities. Whether you’re filling the kettle, flushing the toilet or using the sink, it is an intricate network of plumbing parts that allows these systems to function. Due to their importance, it is vital that these facilities are kept in good working order at all times, especially in commercial buildings and busy public spaces.


On a commercial scale, these vital systems are maintained by specialist plumbers, who are qualified to carry out maintenance work and installation jobs for large non-domestic buildings. These plumbers are able to assess systems of all kinds for faults and carry out appropriate repairs, helping to keep commercial buildings up and running.


Read on to find out more about the different parts and systems a commercial plumber can fix.



Pipework

A key part of any plumbing system is piping, where a trained commercial plumber will be able to look for and resolve problems in all kinds of pipework, including copper and upvc installations. Problems may range from blockages to breakages, meaning a commercial plumber will be able to fit replacement parts where necessary in addition to carrying out deep cleans.


Bathroom Facilities

For a large building, it is vital that bathroom facilities are properly maintained at all times. A commercial plumber will be able to assist with this, where they will be equipped to deal with toilets, showers, taps and urinals. This could include replacing fittings, securing valves or tackling leaks, all important jobs that support the daily functioning of a commercial building.


Water Heaters

Plumbing extends beyond the maintenance of straightforward bathroom facilities into the realm of heating, particularly if water heaters are part of a building’s plumbing system. Water heaters allow for a commercial building to have access to hot water, where a trained plumber will be able to make sure that pressure levels are correct and that heat is being distributed effectively.


Safety & Pressure Valves

Valves are another essential part of a plumbing system that need to be properly maintained. Safety valves help to control pressure and temperature levels inside heating systems, where it is essential that these are working properly at all times. A plumber will be able to maintain and service these valves, providing an emergency replacement if necessary.
