Sadly, if property managers are not in control of the plumbing, sewer, and natural gas needs of their property, it can lead to significant profit loss.

Worse, the situation can spiral out of control and result in legal situations due to plumbing emergency related issues such as black mold because of moisture control problems. Tenants can end up suing property owners if the plumbing, sewer or natural gas issues are linked to poor maintenance of the property.

Thankfully, hiring the services of a professional plumber that has the licensing to work on multi-unit properties and more demanding situations is all you need.

With regular inspections, maintenance, repairs and installations, you will have your plumbing needs under control with your rental properties. On top of this, when you work with plumbers you can trust, you can feel secure knowing your next tenant plumbing or sewer emergency will be handled professionally and quickly with the utmost quality.

In the past, the only way most property owners suspected that there was a problem with the sewer, plumbing or natural gas was when there was an emergency.

Fortunately, modern technology means detection of problems before they happen is affordable and easy. For example, in regular plumbing inspections, sewer pipes can be examined with cameras on optic ropes that can be snaked through several stories of pipes. This way, potential pinhole leaks can be identified on the computer screen as it views the inside of each pipe before the issue grows larger.

Preventing pinhole leaks, potential failures, and troubling pipe corrosion is essential to preventing a subsequent mold abatement or remodeling fiasco issue in the tenants’ rented property.

Also, if you have a warning that major pipe replacement might need to be done in the near future, a significant amount of money can be saved if repairs are scheduled when most convenient and cost effective instead of when disaster strikes and more damage results.

As property managers, having property owners see that you are protecting their investment is important.

One of the best ways to do this is by saving money on utilities that are provided to tenants free-of-charge. Thankfully, the federal government is interested in helping property owners cut down on utility costs with rebates for installing new appliances or environmentally-friendly products, and we help facilitate that process. 

In addition to helping select the ideal water-saving or sewer management equipment, we are also happy to sign off on any paperwork required for tax rebates. In the short-term and long-term, utility savings can be significant for multi-unit buildings that incorporate these energy-saving devices.
