FAQs
Why is routine plumbing maintenance important for my Hillsboro commercial property?
Regular maintenance prevents unexpected breakdowns, water damage, and business interruptions. It also keeps your system in compliance with Oregon plumbing codes and local Clean Water Services regulations, extends the lifespan of pipes and fixtures, and helps you avoid costly emergency repairs by identifying small issues—such as minor leaks or pressure fluctuations—before they escalate.
What does a typical commercial plumbing maintenance visit include?
Our technicians perform a comprehensive inspection that covers: visual checks of exposed piping and valves; pressure and flow testing; water heater and boiler tune-ups; backflow preventer testing; drain and sewer line camera inspections; grease trap measurement and cleaning (if applicable); fixture re-sealing and aerator cleaning; and written documentation of all findings with recommendations for corrective action, if needed.
How often should I schedule maintenance for my business?
Most Hillsboro offices, retail spaces, and light-use facilities benefit from semi-annual service. Restaurants, medical buildings, and industrial plants usually require quarterly visits because of higher water usage, grease or chemical discharge, and stricter health regulations. We are happy to tailor a schedule based on your occupancy, equipment, and any manufacturer or code requirements.
Are there Hillsboro-specific regulations I need to meet?
Yes. Washington County enforces the Oregon Plumbing Specialty Code, annual backflow prevention testing, and Clean Water Services’ Fats, Oils & Grease (FOG) program for food-service establishments. Routine maintenance ensures your property meets these standards, keeps inspection records current, and helps you avoid fines or permit complications.
How much does a routine maintenance plan cost for commercial plumbing?
Pricing depends on building size, number of fixtures, and service frequency. As a guideline, small offices start around $250–$400 per visit, while restaurants or multi-story buildings range from $500–$900. We provide a free on-site survey and a fixed annual or quarterly plan so you can budget with confidence.
What happens if the technician finds a problem during maintenance?
You’ll receive a clear report, photos or video (for sewer scopes), and a same-day quote. Minor adjustments—like tightening a fitting or replacing a faucet cartridge—are often completed on the spot. For larger repairs, we coordinate scheduling around your business hours, obtain any necessary permits, and keep you informed of progress to minimize downtime.
