In a business, a plumbing problem is a customer problem. You need it fixed fast, with nothing left behind for your staff to clean up.
Powell's handles commercial plumbing for restaurants, offices, stores, schools, churches, healthcare buildings, hotels and warehouses across Hampton Roads, the Shenandoah Valley and the Cape Fear coast. Our commercial plumbers repair and replace fixtures, water heaters, valves, supply lines and drains, and run new lines for build-outs and renovations.
Every customer-facing crew member is background-checked and drug-tested. They arrive in marked trucks with the common parts on board and work around your hours. You get a written price before work starts, and photos of the problem and the finished job come with the invoice, so you have a record for owners, landlords or insurance.

Most fixture, valve and water heater problems are repairs, often done the same visit when the parts are on the truck.
Old fixtures, failing water heaters and corroded lines often cost more to keep fixing than to replace.
We schedule it early, late or on a closed day.
