Retail Centers & Office Buildings
Leaks under parking lots and slabs, storm drains that pond, and tenants who can't close for a dig. Located first, opened once, scheduled around business hours.
A retail center or office building has its water main under the parking lot, its storm system under the drive aisles, and its slab under tenants who can't close for a week while someone digs. The locate matters more here than anywhere: every exploratory cut in asphalt or concrete is a day of lost parking or a closed storefront. We pinpoint the leak acoustically, open the surface at one spot, repair, and patch, and we schedule the noisy parts after hours.
The other recurring problem on commercial sites is drainage. Catch basins that fill, storm lines crushed by truck traffic, a corner of the lot that ponds after every rain and undermines the curb. We trace and flow-test the private storm system, open a test pit at the failure, and rebuild the run on grade to a working outlet. Retail landlords in Silverdale, Bremerton, Port Orchard and Poulsbo call us for both.
What usually goes wrong, and what we do about it
A wet patch or sinking spot in the parking lot
Meter test, acoustic locate through the asphalt, one cut at the mark, repair and patch.
A persistently wet hallway or utility room
Slab leak located through the concrete and opened at one spot after hours.
A lot that ponds and a catch basin that never drains
Storm system traced, flow-tested and rebuilt where it failed.
A tenant improvement that needs a new water or drain line
Trenching and installation with the site secured and tenants open.
