FAQs
What exactly is included in a complete commercial plumbing system overhaul?
A full system overhaul means we replace or refurbish every critical component of your property’s plumbing infrastructure—from incoming water mains and distribution lines to fixtures, drains, vent stacks, backflow-prevention devices, and even controls such as sensors or mixing valves. We start with digital mapping and pressure testing, remove outdated or corroded piping, upgrade to code-compliant materials (typically Type L copper, PEX, or Schedule 40/80 PVC for drainage), install high-efficiency fixtures, recalibrate water heaters and pumps, and finish with hydro-jetting and camera verification to ensure the entire network is clean and leak-free.
How do I know my Pelham facility needs an overhaul instead of just repairs?
Frequent leaks, chronic low pressure, rusty or discolored water, recurring drain clogs, and water-usage spikes are warning signs. If your system is 25–30 years old, still uses galvanized steel or cast-iron drains, or no longer meets current New York State plumbing and energy codes, repairs become cost-inefficient. During our free on-site evaluation we perform flow-rate testing, camera inspections, and thermal imaging. If more than 30 % of lines or fixtures show deterioration, a full overhaul is usually the safest, most economical long-term solution.
How long does a commercial plumbing overhaul take?
Duration depends on square footage, number of restrooms, kitchens, and mechanical rooms, and whether work can be phased. For an average 15,000–20,000 sq ft office or retail building in Pelham, a complete overhaul takes 5–10 working days. Large facilities such as hotels or schools can range from 3–8 weeks. We provide a detailed Gantt chart before starting so you can plan around critical milestones.
Will my business have to close during the overhaul?
In most cases, no. We schedule work after hours, over weekends, or isolate sections so only small areas are offline at any given time. Temporary water bypass lines and portable restroom stations keep employees and customers functional. If a full shutdown is unavoidable—typically only for main water-service replacement—we coordinate the brief outage (often overnight) well in advance to minimize disruption.
What does a commercial plumbing overhaul cost in Pelham and what affects the price?
Projects can range from $8 to $15 per square foot, or $25,000 to well over $250,000 depending on building size, pipe material choice, fixture grade, accessibility, and any required asbestos or lead abatement. New high-efficiency water heaters or booster pumps add to the investment but reduce long-term utility costs. After an on-site survey we give you a fixed, itemized proposal so there are no surprises.
Are permits and inspections required, and do you handle them?
Yes. Westchester County and the Town of Pelham require plumbing permits, pressure tests, and final inspections for any substantial pipe replacement or fixture relocation. We manage the entire permitting process—drawing submission, fees, scheduling inspections—and provide stamped as-built plans upon completion. All work is performed by licensed Master Plumbers and meets IPC 2021 and local amendments, ensuring your facility passes inspection the first time.
