Commercial tenant improvements across California: the Bay Area, Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego and Sacramento
Commercial Plumbing for California Tenant Improvements
Accessible restrooms, break rooms, medical and dental plumbing and restaurant drainage built to the California Plumbing Code.
Restrooms that pass 11B
Accessible restrooms are among the most scrutinized parts of a California plan check. Clearances, fixture heights, grab bars, door hardware and signage must all meet CBC Chapter 11B. Existing restrooms that serve your space may need upgrades as part of path-of-travel work.
- Accessible restrooms
- Break rooms and kitchenettes
- Medical, dental and lab plumbing
- Restaurant floor sinks and grease interceptors
- Water-efficient fixtures
Water efficiency
California requires water-efficient fixtures under CALGreen and state standards. Fixtures are specified to meet current flow limits.
Restaurants and county health
Food businesses go through county environmental health plan review, such as Los Angeles County, San Diego County or Sacramento County, and some cities like Pasadena and Long Beach have their own health departments. We coordinate the plumbing layout with the kitchen plan for both reviews.
