Using Downtime for Commercial Maintenance Plumbing

We make it our priority at Emu Plumbing, to support local businesses year-round. And when times get tough, we want to make sure that we’re providing the best opportunities for businesses to continue to thrive.

Downtime often means less work, less revenue and less security for your staff. Downtime is rarely associated with anything positive.

But using your downtime in the best possible way, means that when things are starting to pick up, you’ll have the opportunity to be more productive, have fewer roadblocks and increase your revenue back to normal (or in excess of that!) at a much faster rate.

Get your commercial plumbing maintained and checked at a time when possible disruptions aren’t going to cost you as much in revenue. That way, when you’re at your busiest, you can focus on what you do best without unexpected hiccups.

Emu’s Commercial Plumbing Maintenance Services

At Emu Plumbing, we offer a complete range of commercial plumbing maintenance services for your business.

Use the quieter periods of the year to get your business’s technical and legislative requirements up to date. Identifying safety hazards, ensuring your appliances are tagged and tested and that all other parts of your business meet legislative testing and maintenance requirements can save you money in the long run and avoid a plumbing catastrophe at your busiest times.

Our Commercial Plumbing Preventative Maintenance Checklist

    • Water Usage Audit We check how your business is using water and if it’s in excess of what it should be. This can indicate a leak or if you require water saving measures to be installed to your fixtures. We’ll identify water usage issues and offer solutions to reduce your consumption costs.

    • Water Pressure We check that your water pressure is where it should be – if your water pressure is too high or low it could indicate underlying problems with your plumbing that we’ll investigate further.

    • Signs of Corrosion Rust and corrosion tells us that there is a leak somewhere in your pipes that needs to be addressed immediately.

    • Sewer and stormwater systems Just because we can’t see blockages or damage, doesn’t mean it’s not there. We use CCTV cameras to inspect buried, obstructed and hard-to-access pipes to check for damage or forecast the need to upgrade older pipes before a burst.

    • Roofing & Guttering We’ll identify damage and general wear and tear in your roof and gutter that could cause a bigger issue in the future and offer the best solutions for repair.

    • Water Catchment Systems We’ll assess and check your water and groundwater catchment systems to avoid any contamination.

    • Roof Ventilators & Air Quality Management Adequate and safe ventilation is essential for your employees, and it’s your job to protect them. It’s imperative to ensure that your current ventilation systems are clean and in good working order.

    • Hot Water Systems Whether you use solar, gas or electric hot water systems, we’ll check to make sure it’s working properly.

    • Waste Disposal We’re experienced in installing and maintaining your grease traps and filters. These units have strict regulations that must be adhered to. As commercial plumbers, we’re fully across these systems and know exactly what your business needs.
    • Backflow Testing If your backflow device isn’t working correctly or up to standard, it means that contaminated water can flow backward causing water-borne illnesses. Your backflow devices must be maintained by a licensed professional annually.

We take our commercial maintenance seriously.

Not only will regular maintenance of your plumbing keep everything in working order, but it can prevent major costs and disruptions later on. That’s why we also urge businesses to do their maintenance during quieter periods.

Emu Plumbing are Brisbane’s experienced commercial plumbers. We always do our best to support local businesses and team up with recommended traders, to resolve even the toughest plumbing problems.

  • “Well organised, efficient and competitively priced.”

    Have been using Tony Bonehill & his team from Emu Plumbing for a number of years and have no hesitation in recommending them for all types of plumbing works. I manage a large property portfolio, and I need to be able to rely on my tradespeople, and I never have to second guess using Emu Plumbing. They are well organised, efficient & competitively priced!

  • “Quick, knowledgeable and competitive on price.”

    I have been in this industry now for more than 25 years across a number of different venues and was introduced to Tony and his team by another friend that owns and runs a restaurant in Brisbane. For more than the last five years he has been one of our top trade contacts, and I would recommend Emu to anyone that is interested in getting the job done right the first time.

    They are always on time, and they are clean and tidy workers (which is essential in a commercial kitchen). They clean up, take photos of the work completed and are always happy to do a quick site check to see if anything else may need attention in the future. Quick, knowledgeable and competitive on price.

  • “The best plumbers I have worked with, they never let me down.”

    I have worked with Tony and the Emu Plumbing Team over nearly 4 years. The level of professionalism, and most importantly honesty and integrity that the Team delivers every day is outstanding. Tony is always available for advice over the phone to our Tenants and Landlords.

    I would recommend Tony and the Emu Team as the best plumbers I have worked with, and they have never let me down. Now that is something that is hard to find!

  • “I have no hesitation in recommending the Emu Plumbing team.”

    A huge thank you to Tony, Al and Bryce for helping us get Mrs Brown’s Bar & Kitchen up and running! You’ve been incredible, and we’re very appreciative of your efforts, which went above and beyond the norm on many occasions. We used lots of second-hand and re-purposed items during our fit-out, and nothing was straightforward – but nothing was ever a problem for the boys. I have no hesitation in recommending the Emu Plumbing team, and am glad they’re part of ours.

  • “Fast responses, extremely polite, and honest work”

    The team at Emu plumbing never fail to impress. Tony, Niles, Eli and Joseph are all beyond excellent in their work. Fast responses, extremely polite, and honest work. They’re very thorough and take time to explain situations to make sure everyone understands what is being done and why, they hold a great attention to detail and always clean up after themselves. I can’t recommend Emu enough.

    Thank you guys!

  • “Prompt and excellent service!”

    I moved into a new unit to find no water was flowing through the pipes. My property manager sent Eric from Emu Plumbing who fixed the matter quickly.

    Someone turned off my water supply last night as water from my unit was leaking downstairs into the foyer! Along came Eric who again fixed the problem of my laundry taps and he even left ‘who gives a crap’ toilet paper. Fantastic!!

    Prompt and excellent service from your company – Eric was polite and efficient.

  • “They did a very thorough, excellent job, with photographic evidence, were very reasonably priced and very professional”

    I needed to call an emergency plumber on a Saturday afternoon for issues at the office where I work in Kingsford Smith Drive in Eagle Farm. I called two local after-hours plumbers without success. Emu answered on the first ring although already busy with a job down the road. They estimated they would be finished with the current job and would be at the office by 4.30 pm which they were. They did a very thorough, excellent job, with photographic evidence, were very reasonably priced and very professional/ I would highly recommend them and use their services again without hesitation.

  • “The boys deserve some high praise”

    I just wanted to let you know what a good job your young lads did. We’re very happy with the result. The boys deserve some high praise – so efficient, thoughtful, pleasant and a work ethic to be treasured.

  • “Absolutely amazing and very helpful”

    We were in a situation where we needed a gas technician to come and assess if there was a gas leak at our property where a previous technician has disconnected our gas cylinder and therefore had no gas for hot showers etc. The team at Emu were absolutely amazing and very helpful when I rang them and told them about our situation. A technician was organised to come out and he managed to fix the problem.

    It’s nice to know that humanity still exists and that they helped as soon as they could, at a reasonable price too! A huge Thank You to the great team at Emu (Shakira, Nials and Tony), we will definitely recommend your business to others as well!

  • “We really appreciate the way he went about his business before, during and especially after”

    Today we had Tyler from Emu Plumbing come out to our address in Coorparoo. He was courteous, helpful and fixed our issue without to much fuss.

    But what impressed us the most is the fact he cleaned up the mess created and went the extra yard to leave our site spotless. We really appreciate the way he went about his business before, during and especially after.

    Later that night, we had the guys from Urban Utilities to fix up the issue in the mains. They even commented on how the plumber cleaned. Thanks Tyler!
