Commercial Plumbing Repair in Salt Lake Valley

What commercial work Rocket takes on

Rocket keeps its commercial work narrow on purpose. The company repairs water and drain problems in businesses: restaurants, offices and other commercial buildings. When a line breaks, a drain backs up or a fixture fails, a business cannot wait long, and that is the situation Rocket is set up for.

The work is service and repair. Rocket does not take on commercial projects such as new construction, and it does not work on commercial heating, cooling or boilers. Those jobs are larger than what the team does. If you are not sure whether your problem fits, describe it by phone or text and ask. A direct answer early saves a property owner from calling the wrong contractor.

Emergency repairs for restaurants and offices

A kitchen with a backed-up floor drain or an office with a burst supply line loses money by the hour. Rocket takes emergency calls for businesses, including after hours and on weekends. Calls outside regular hours carry the same $149 after-hours trip charge as any other emergency, and holiday calls carry a $300 trip charge, plus the cost of the repair in both cases.

When you call, say what the building is, where the water is coming from and whether it has been shut off. Knowing where the main shutoff valve is before something breaks makes a real difference in a commercial space, where several tenants may share one line.

Finding and replacing a failing drain

Drains in commercial buildings often sit below a slab, which makes a failing one hard to deal with. Rocket runs a camera down the drain to see what is wrong and uses a locator to map where the line runs underground. When the pipe has to be replaced, Rocket cuts the slab over the drain, removes the failed section and installs new pipe.

That fixes the cause rather than clearing the same blockage again and again. Ask how the opening will be sized and how the floor will be patched, since the patch is part of getting the space back in use.

Scheduling work around an occupied building

A commercial space is rarely empty. Staff and customers need to keep using the building while one area is repaired, and a water shutoff can affect everyone on the same line. Planning which sections come offline, and for how long, is part of the repair rather than an afterthought.

Ask any contractor how water will be shut off, how long a section stays unusable and how the work area will be kept apart from the rest of the building. The answers show how carefully the repair has been thought through.
