Restaurant and commercial kitchen plumbing
Plumbing for restaurants and commercial kitchens: sinks, dishwashers, floor drains, grease interceptors and hot water.
For businesses
Washroom plumbing for offices, shops, restaurants and other commercial buildings, including barrier-free fixtures.
Commercial washrooms see far more use than a home bathroom, and they use different fixtures: flush valves, wall-hung toilets and urinals, and sensor faucets. Flush valves, sometimes called flushometers, use water pressure to flush without a tank, and they need regular adjustment and parts to keep working properly.
The building code also sets how many fixtures a building needs based on how many people use it, and it requires barrier-free fixtures, designed for people using wheelchairs and other mobility aids, in many commercial spaces. We install, repair and update commercial washroom plumbing. A business can ask for proof of our WSIB coverage before work starts.
We check the flush valves, sensors, supply stops and drains to find what is failing.
Worn flush valve parts and sensors are replaced, and fixtures that cannot be repaired are swapped out.
When a renovation triggers code requirements, we install the barrier-free fixtures at the heights the code sets.
We flush and run every fixture and check for leaks at the wall and floor.
A flush valve has a diaphragm, a flexible rubber seal, that wears out or catches debris. When it does not seal, water keeps running, and replacing the diaphragm usually fixes it.
Many commercial buildings do, and a renovation can trigger the requirement even in an older building. Your architect or the building department can confirm what applies to your space.
A dry floor drain trap is the most common cause in washrooms where the floor is not washed often. Pouring water into the drain refills the trap, and a trap primer, which adds water to the trap automatically, keeps it full.
