Imagine this: a customer visits your business and later ends up hospitalized from an infection traced back to your water system. This isn’t just a hypothetical horror story. It's a real risk that threatens restaurants, dry cleaners, spas, medical facilities, car washes, and even churches — basically, any business with water fixtures, even if it’s just a bathroom for customers.

Every day, business owners rely on clean water flowing through their buildings for various operations, from basic employee needs to specialized processes. However, without proper safeguards, this essential resource can become a liability. 

We take a lot of pride in helping Greenville area homeowners maintain healthy plumbing and recover from plumbing disasters. Did you also know we also work with local businesses? Not only can we help businesses with the sort of minor problems that could also happen in a home, but we're capable of so much more as a commercial plumbing service!

We work with several restaurants, and regularly receive calls to clean grease traps. For those of you who aren't in the restaurant biz, grease traps are installed to keep fats, oils, and grease from getting into pipes entering sewer lines. Grease traps are necessary because fats, oils, and grease will solidify and clog pipes, all while trapping food scraps and other debris which will only make the clog more serious.
