Older Whittier Buildings
Plumbing Problems in Older Whittier Commercial Buildings
Many storefronts and apartment buildings in Whittier are decades old, and so is the plumbing inside them. In Whittier, the property owner is responsible for the sewer lateral from the building to the city main, so a backup in that line is the owner's to fix.
Galvanized Water Lines
Rust inside galvanized pipe reduces pressure and discolors water. We replace failing sections or the full line.
Cast Iron Drain Lines
Cast iron scales up and cracks over time. We camera inspect, jet and replace cast iron drain lines.
Clay Sewer Laterals With Root Intrusion
Older clay laterals crack at joints and let tree roots in. We camera inspect, jet and repair or replace them.
Hard Water Scale in Water Heaters and Fixtures
Whittier's hard water builds scale quickly. Regular flushing and descaling extends commercial water heater life.
Commercial Services
Commercial Leak Detection, Pipes, Drains and Sewer
Commercial Leak Detection and Pipe Repair
"Standing water in the electrical room." A hidden leak can damage inventory, ceilings and equipment fast. We find leaks in walls, ceilings, slabs and underground lines, then repair or replace the pipe. See leak detection.
Commercial Water Line and Main Repair
We repair and replace water mains, service lines and supply piping that feed your building, and replace failed shutoff valves so you can isolate one area without closing the whole property.
Repiping Inside Commercial Facilities
When the same lines keep failing, we reroute and replace aging pipe in offices, shops and warehouses, and schedule work to keep your doors open. See pipe repair and repiping.
Commercial Drain Cleaning and Sewer Line Service
Busy restrooms and kitchens put far more into the drains than a home does. We clear clogged floor drains, restroom lines, kitchen lines and main sewer lines. See hydro jetting and sewer line repair.
Commercial Water Heater Repair and Replacement
Restaurants, salons, gyms and apartment buildings run out of hot water fast when a water heater fails. We repair and replace commercial tank and tankless water heaters and help size the right unit for your demand. See water heater repair.
Commercial Gas Line Repair and Equipment Hookups
"What the hourly rate would be to come and work on a gas connection in our office." We repair gas leaks and install gas lines for commercial kitchen equipment, water heaters and appliances. Every line is pressure tested before we leave. See gas line repair.
Backup, Leak or No Hot Water at Your Business?
After hours and weekend visits available. Upfront pricing before any work starts.
Restaurant Plumbing
Restaurant Plumbing and Grease Line Service
Grease is the number one drain problem in commercial kitchens. It cools, hardens and narrows the line until it backs up, usually at the worst time.
- Grease line jetting to clear kitchen drain lines
- Grease trap and interceptor plumbing repairs
- Floor drain and floor sink clearing
- Three compartment sink, prep sink and hand sink repairs
- Dishwasher hookups and repairs
Many cities and sewer agencies require food businesses to maintain their grease interceptors on a regular schedule.
Signs a Kitchen Grease Line Needs Jetting
- Floor sinks that drain slowly or back up
- Sour smells coming from kitchen drains
- Gurgling when the dishwasher drains
- Water coming up at the lowest drain in the kitchen
Restrooms
Commercial Restroom Plumbing Repair
Restrooms that work keep customers and employees happy.
- Flushometer toilet and urinal repair
- Commercial faucet and sensor faucet repair
- Clogged restroom drains and toilets
- Leaking supply lines and shutoff valves
- Restroom fixture replacement
See toilet repair and faucet and fixture repair.
Medical, Dental and Salons
Plumbing for Medical, Dental and Salon Offices
Salon shampoo bowls clog with hair, and dental and medical offices need steady hot water and working hand sinks all day. We repair sinks, drains, supply lines and water heaters, and schedule work around your appointments when we can.
Apartments and Rentals
Apartment, Duplex and HOA Plumbing
"Have a toilet backing up in one of the units here." Shared plumbing means one problem can affect several units. We work with landlords, property managers and HOAs across Whittier on:
- Shared sewer line backups and main line jetting
- Leaks between floors and inside walls
- Water heater repair and replacement for individual units
- Tenant calls for toilets, faucets and disposals
- Shutoff valve upgrades so one unit can be isolated
Build Outs and Remodels
Tenant Build Outs, Remodels and New Plumbing
Opening a new location or remodeling a suite? We handle plumbing for tenant improvements, from adding restrooms and break room sinks to running new water, drain and gas lines. We work alongside your contractor and handle the plumbing work that needs a City of Whittier permit and inspection.

- Clear communication with owners, managers and tenants
- Clean work areas in customer facing spaces

Cost
Commercial Plumbing Cost in Whittier
Commercial plumbing is usually priced by the job, since every building is different. For reference, HomeAdvisor lists plumber labor at about $45 to $200 an hour, and Angi lists hydro jetting at about $350 to $600 for most visits.
Cost depends on the size of the building, access to the pipes, after hours timing and the parts needed. You get upfront pricing before any work starts, so you can approve it or run it by the owner first.
