Tenant finish plumbing refers to any plumbing work that is done within a property in order to meet the needs and requirements of the tenant. This work typically takes place after the initial construction of the property has been completed. It is done after all the rough-in plumbing has been installed. It can therefore be carried out on a new construction or even years later while remodeling the property.
Customize the plumbing system to the requirements of the tenant. This includes adding or relocating fixtures or even making changes to the water and drainage supply systems. This work is done to adjust the layout of the plumbing system in order to meet the specific requirements of the tenant. E.g. when a new business takes over the tenancy of a property.
Install new fixtures. Tenant finish plumbing may be done to install fixtures such as sinks, showers, toilets and bathtubs. It may also be done to accommodate new appliances such as kitchen appliances. The new fixtures or appliances are connected to the existing plumbing system which was installed during the rough-in plumbing phase.
Modify existing plumbing infrastructure. This may include adding new lines, making changes to a venting system or rerouting pipes. This may be done in order to accommodate a tenant’s new layout or their usage preferences.
Compliance with building codes is also required during tenant finish plumbing. This is to ensure safety and proper functionality. Building permits and inspections may be required to ensure that the work meets building code requirements. Tenant finish plumbing should therefore not be considered a DIY job.
