Warning Signs That You Need To Replace Your Commercial Plumbing

When commercial plumbing needs to be replaced, it is important to have all of the information on hand. A professional can help determine when it is time to replace your commercial plumbing, but there are some early red flags that can help you make that decision on your own. For example, your water usage is increasing or your sink is draining slowly. These are both signs that your pipes need to be inspected and possibly replaced. This article will give you the information to help you decide whether or not it is time to replace your commercial plumbing.

Poor Drainage

One of the first signs that it is time to replace your commercial plumbing is if your pipes are taking too long to drain. Slow drainage can be caused by several factors, such as an obstruction in your pipes, a loose connection, or aging pipes. But if you notice that your drains are taking much longer to drain than they used to, it is probably a good idea to have them inspected.

Insufficient Fluid Pressure

Another sign that it is time to replace your commercial plumbing is if your water pressure is low. Low water pressure can be caused by aging pipes, which can become more susceptible to leaks and cracks. But if you notice that your water pressure is significantly lower than it used to be, it is probably a good idea to have it inspected.

Spike in Water Bills

The next sign that it is time to replace your commercial plumbing is if your water bills start to spike. Spiking water bills could be a sign that your pipes are leaking, but they can also be a sign that you have a new issue with your pipes. 

If your commercial plumbing is behaving differently than it used to, it is likely time to have it inspected. A few of the red flags that it is time to have your commercial plumbing inspected include slow drainage, low water pressure, and a spike in water bills. If you notice that any of these red flags are occurring more often than they used to, it is probably a good idea to have your commercial plumbing inspected. After all, your employees and customers deserve nothing but the best, and it is in your best interest to ensure that your pipes are working as efficiently as possible.

Communicating With Your General Contractor

Nothing is more frustrating than deciding on a construction project, only to be bombarded by a long list of problems during the construction phase. Unfortunately, if you work with the wrong person, you might become pretty familiar with issues. About five years ago, I hired one of my neighbors to renovate my bathroom. Although the mere idea sounds ridiculous now, at the time it seemed like a natural solution to a real problem. Unfortunately, as soon as he got started, I knew that he didn't know what he was doing.
