Commercial Pump Maintenance, commonly known as CPM, is a Perth-based specialist pump, control and commercial plumbing maintenance business servicing commercial, strata, industrial and high-rise building assets.

Established in 2018 by owner-operator Adam Thomas, CPM was created to provide a specialised and reliable service for commercial pump systems, water storage assets, wastewater systems and associated plumbing infrastructure. Adam brings more than 20 years’ experience across commercial plumbing, gas fitting and pump servicing, supported by a team of skilled technicians with plumbing and electrical trade backgrounds.

CPM’s focus is simple: anything that moves water, they can service. The business works across complex building systems where reliability, compliance and rapid response matter, including pressure systems, sewer and stormwater pump stations, hot water circulation systems, backflow prevention, filtration systems, water storage tanks and oily water separators.

Areas Serviced

CPM services clients across the Perth metropolitan area and surrounding commercial precincts, with project examples and case studies including Perth CBD, Malaga, Rockingham and south-of-river locations.

The business also as required supplies services to remote areas, mining sites and FIFO by arrangement.

The business is centrally based in Osborne Park, allowing the team to respond efficiently to commercial and facility maintenance requirements across Perth.

Type of Work

CPM primarily focuses on commercial, industrial, strata, high-rise and facility maintenance work.

The business is best suited to clients who require specialist servicing, repairs, reporting and maintenance of critical water-moving infrastructure rather than general domestic plumbing. CPM commonly works with:

• Facility managers
• Strata managers
• Commercial property managers
• Building owners
• Industrial sites
• Mechanical workshops
• Hotels, hospitals and office complexes
• Plumbing contractors requiring specialist pump support

This positioning is important, as CPM is not promoted as a general plumbing business. Its strength is in specialist pump and control systems, particularly where asset reliability and compliance are critical.

• Breakdown and emergency pump repairs

Specialties

CPM is especially well known for servicing and maintaining commercial pump systems and water infrastructure in complex buildings.

Key specialties include:

• Multi-storey building pressure systems
• Sewer and stormwater pump stations
• Commercial hot water circulation pumps
• Potable water storage tanks
• Oily water and vertical gravity separators
• Backflow prevention
• Pump fault finding and diagnostics

The business has strong capability in identifying issues before they become major failures. For example, CPM highlights the importance of six-monthly servicing of submersible pump stations to avoid emergency breakdowns, expensive tankering or site shutdowns.

Why Customers Choose CPM

Customers choose CPM because the business provides a specialised, practical and highly responsive service for critical building infrastructure.

CPM’s technicians are qualified, solution-driven and supported by formalised systems, diagnostic software, stocked service vehicles and a centrally located workshop. This allows many breakdowns and faults to be diagnosed and resolved efficiently, often on the first visit.

The business is particularly valued by facility managers and strata managers because regular servicing can reduce after-hours breakdowns, extend the life of pump and treatment systems, improve reliability, reduce power consumption, prevent water wastage and support compliance or statutory audit requirements.

Point of Difference

CPM’s point of difference is its specialist focus. The business is not trying to be everything to everyone. It concentrates on pump systems, controls, water storage, wastewater, fire systems and commercial maintenance assets.

The team understands the importance of keeping buildings operational. Whether the issue involves water pressure, a sewer pump station, a failed hot water circulator, tank fill valve, filtration system or separator, CPM has the experience to diagnose the cause, repair the fault and recommend a long-term maintenance solution.

CPM also places a strong emphasis on safety, site cleanliness and minimising disruption to clients and building occupants. On completion, the aim is to leave each site clean, tidy and operational.

Emergency and After-Hours Service

CPM offers 24/7 emergency breakdown support for critical commercial pump, fire and water system failures. The business promotes around-the-clock availability, with a mobile service fleet and emergency spare parts to help keep facilities operating.
