When you run your own business, money matters – a lot. One of the biggest costs business owners have is their overhead and that means that finding the right maintenance team is essential. When it comes to commercial plumbing, you want to find a plumbing company that’s reliable, efficient, and available for emergencies – they need to do it all, for the right price. Following these tips, you’ll be able to find the right company for your needs:
Tip 1: Get Feedback From Others
Understanding the reputation of the company you’re looking into is key and there’s no reputation as reliable as the word of people you know and trust. Talk to other business owners about what plumber they use. Ask for details about their experiences and any positives or negatives they have to share. Don’t stop there, either – go online and look at reviews for that company and then ask the company for any references they have from clients.. The more you dig, the more you’ll know!
Tip 2: Figure Out What Services You Need
Every business has different needs, and that includes plumbing. While many businesses might only use plumbing for fixtures like toilets and sinks, other businesses can have very complicated plumbing setups with a variety of non-standard fixtures. Restaurants may need grease traps and laundromats might require specialized pipes. Businesses that rely heavily on their plumbing would be well-served by a routine maintenance program.
Tip 3: Get Multiple Quotes
You’ll want to figure out how much room you have in your budget for plumbing. That can be difficult because there are a lot of different services you might be after, from emergency drain cleaning to installation. Now that you have all of the services you might be looking for written down, call a number of different plumbing companies in the area to get estimates on the services you need. Feel free to tell them about your business during that call and ask them if they can anticipate services that might be useful to you that you haven’t mentioned. Knowledgeable commercial plumbers will have some good suggestions and you can feel free to take them or leave them.
Tip 4: Check The Paperwork
You want to make sure the plumbers who will be working at your business are highly qualified, well-trained, licensed, and insured. There are a variety of ways you can check this; you might look up their website, contact the licensing board in their area, or ask to see their insurance policy details. With all the work you’ve done checking references, you’ll probably find that everything is in order, but it never hurts to double check.
Tip 5: Look At Their Work
When you’re getting in contact with a contractor for installations, you should take a look at some of the other projects they’ve completed. Plumbing and fixtures should either look great or be completely out of sight. The functionality of plumbing is key but aesthetics are important, too.
