Our Services
We install complete plumbing systems (including hydronic piping), as well as provide value engineering and pre-construction services.
WHAT WE DO
- 01 Complete Plumbing System
Gavina makes sure that your whole network of pipes, drains, and vents are expertly designed and installed for maximum longevity and performance.
We install sinks, faucets, toilets, and water heaters. But our services include water line inspection, commercial sump pump repair, waste, and stormwater piping and repiping services, floor drains, roof receptors, grease tap leak repair (or grease interceptor replacement), water filter repair, ejector pump installation, annual backflow testing, and much more.
- 02 Hydronic Piping
Hydronic heating is a form of radiant heating, which enables a more comfortable environment within the building. Energy-efficient hydronic heating systems can help to lower your energy bills (they use up to 4% less fuel) and are more effective at maintaining the temperature of your home, as they heat the building rather than the air.
Gavina is a recognized expert in the design, coordination, and installation of hot and chilled water piping. Our installation services also cover condenser water and fuel piping, as well as the fitting of chillers, boilers, and cooling towers.
We are highly experienced across a range of installation methods, spanning grooved piping, steel piping, welding, process piping, and brazed piping.
- 03 Value Engineering
Value engineering describes a well-organized, systemic approach to applying all necessary functions in a project at the lowest possible cost. To this end, Gavina promotes the substitution of materials and methods with more reasonably priced alternatives.
We maintain code compliance and avoid hidden costs, without sacrificing functionality.
In recent years, the term ‘value engineering’ has come to be misunderstood. It is not to be confused with ‘de-value’ engineering. For example, a relatively expensive high-end stainless steel component can save money in the long term, due to its durability.
Meanwhile, the failure of a cheap import can lead to an expensive lawsuit.
Gavina returns value engineering to its original intent — not simply making it cheap.
- 04 Pre-Construction Services
Architects, engineers, and other members of the pre-construction team work together to ensure the overall success of the project. The pre-construction phase gives Gavina Plumbing ample opportunity to maximize efficiency and minimize the need for awkward or costly changes during the subsequent construction process.
With our problem-solving efforts and trade partner buy-in during the engineering phase, Gavina is able to establish a highly coordinated, minimal-change environment.
