Individual customers and small groups are the lifeblood of so many Sacramento-area businesses. Restaurants, retail shops, and more depend on foot traffic and in-person visits—which are happening more and more again. But throughout the recent shutdown, some business owners may have forgotten what seems to be a universal truth: Customers are bad for bathrooms.
Of course, we don’t mean that every customer will be a bathroom nightmare. On the other hand, the Always Affordable Plumbing team—as commercial plumbing experts in Sacramento—have seen a lot. That is to say, if it’s not their home sink or toilet, they don’t care as much about taking care of it.
In addition to unruly bathroom users, local businesses can face many commercial plumbing problems. Here are some common pipe and fixture issues we see—and will likely see more of in the coming days, weeks, and months.
Flush It and Forget It
Above all, business owners want their bathroom facilities to be clean and functional. Customers using these facilities while out and about rarely have the same goals. That is to say, if someone needs a toilet while shopping or dining, it’s likely an emergency. As a result, customers aren’t always exactly thinking about how best to treat a facility where they are a guest. In other words, they want to deal with their “problem” and get out.
In their haste to get in and get back out, they may leave a mess. For example, they could leave paper everywhere, water splashed on mirrors, or … well, you have an imagination.
Meanwhile, they may also be creating even bigger commercial plumbing problems. Flushing wads of toilet paper can create clogs. In addition, people often flush inappropriate items down public toilets. Maybe they forget that if sanitary products and diapers aren’t good for home pipes, they aren’t good for commercial plumbing, either?
Whatever the reason, you could find yourself saddled with a massive plumbing emergency at any time. That’s why we’re always ready to help.
Unseen, Unheard, Unknown?
Business owners have a lot on their minds: ordering supplies, hiring, running day-to-day operations, solving problems … the list goes on. Maintaining proper plumbing is definitely a part of that. However, given how much stuff there always is to deal with, problems can get missed. Maybe it’s a leaky faucet that doesn’t make an obvious mess, but adds to the monthly water bill. Maybe it’s a toilet that runs off and on. Or it could be a small, quiet leak somewhere unobtrusive. As a result, you don’t see it—but you will likely see the results of it someday when you discover warped wood or mold.
At Always Affordable Plumbing, we offer whole house inspections for residential areas. We also perform business inspections that can give owners peace of mind—at least when it comes to plumbing. Our trained and experienced plumbers search out anything that is a problem. In addition, we find things that may seem small now, but could become a problem down the road.
Getting Up There in Years
We know that owning a business means constantly spending to maintain everything. For example, windows need to be cleaned, register ink needs to be replaced, and more. Meanwhile, in the back, toilets, sinks, and pipes are aging, too.
During any inspection, we can note appliances, fixtures, and features that could use updating. Not only can this prevent catastrophic failures due to worn-out parts, but it can also save money. Efficient, modern fixtures can save water and help a business’ bottom line.
