Commercial plumbing for property managers
Property managers need a plumber who behaves like part of the operation, not a vendor you chase. We handle vendor onboarding the way portfolio managers expect: current certificate of insurance, W-9, signed vendor agreement, and online invoicing tied to the property or unit so costs land on the right ledger without a phone call.
Across a portfolio we standardize what gets checked and when — water heaters, angle stops and supply lines, hose bibbs, main shutoffs, grease and floor drains, and backflow assemblies. Scheduled preventive visits catch the failures that turn into after-hours floods, and every visit comes back with photos, findings, and a plain recommendation of what to fix now versus what to budget for.
For multi-property clients we set priority response windows in writing. One phone number covers every address, and dispatch already knows the buildings, the shutoff locations, and the tenants who cannot lose water during business hours.
Tenant improvements and work with general contractors
Tenant improvement plumbing is the core of our commercial construction work. We bid from the plan set, coordinate the underground with the concrete schedule, run rough and top-out to the framing and inspection calendar, and return for trim when finishes are ready. Because we self-perform every phase with our own crew, the person who set the underground is the person who knows why a line sits where it does.
We pull our own plumbing permits, schedule inspections directly with the city or county building department, and give the GC a straight answer on scheduling instead of an optimistic one. When a plan set conflicts with the California Plumbing Code — venting, fixture counts, grease interceptor sizing, ADA clearances at lavatories — we flag it during bid rather than at inspection.
Typical TI scope includes restroom groups, break rooms, ADA fixture sets, water heaters and recirculation, condensate, and connection of owner-furnished equipment. Restaurant buildouts add grease waste, three-compartment and prep sinks, floor sinks and drains, indirect waste, and gas piping for the cook line.
Restaurants, medical offices, and specialty commercial work
Food service plumbing lives and dies by grease management and health department sign-off. We install and service grease interceptors and grease waste lines, set up hydro-jetting intervals that keep kitchen lines from backing up during service, and handle backflow protection on carbonators, dish machines, and irrigation.
Medical and dental buildouts bring their own requirements: vacuum and compressed air, sterilizer and autoclave connections, dedicated water treatment, and — where piped medical gas is involved — ASSE 6010 certified installation under NFPA 99. We hold that certification in-house and coordinate independent verification so the system passes the first time.
For public works we bid as a DIR-registered contractor, run certified payroll, and meet the documentation requirements that come with prevailing wage projects. Schools, municipal buildings, and public facility work all go through the same compliance process from bid to closeout.
How a commercial job runs with MPP
It starts with plans or a walkthrough. For construction work, send the plan set and we return a scoped, line-itemed bid — usually two to three business days for tenant improvements and remodels, about a week for ground-up or public works packages. For service work, we walk the property, inventory the equipment, and quote a maintenance agreement or a fixed price for the repair in front of you.
During the work you get a named point of contact who is actually on the job, not a call center. We keep tenants informed about shutoffs, phase the work around opening hours where needed, and protect finished surfaces. Every invoice ties back to the approved scope, with change orders written and approved before the work happens.
Afterward, workmanship is warranted for one year, manufacturer warranties on equipment we supply are registered and passed to you, and we keep records of what we installed so the next service call starts with facts instead of guesswork.
