Odessa is Resolv's headquarters city and the center of Ector County's commercial plumbing demand — from oilfield supply yards on Andrews Highway to the restaurant corridor along Highway 80 and the medical office complexes near Medical Center Hospital.
Odessa's Commercial Plumbing Landscape: Oilfield, Medical, and Retail
Odessa's commercial base reflects the dual economy that has defined Ector County for generations: the oilfield supply industry that lines the Andrews Highway corridor, and the expanding healthcare and retail infrastructure serving a metro area pushing 120,000 residents. These two sectors drive the majority of commercial plumbing demand in the city — oilfield supply companies need industrial-grade restrooms, eyewash stations, wash bays, and process piping, while the restaurants, clinics, and shopping centers along Highway 80 and 42nd Street require code-compliant commercial systems maintained to City of Odessa and Ector County standards.
Medical Center Hospital and its affiliated medical office buildings on the west side represent some of the most technically demanding commercial plumbing in the region. Medical facilities require backflow prevention assemblies on every potable water connection, specific hot water temperature maintenance for infection control, and annual testing of all RPZ and double-check valve assemblies. Resolv holds the licensing and test equipment to perform that work correctly and file the required documentation with the city.
Active commercial construction in Odessa — particularly tenant improvement build-outs along the Parkway corridor and near UTPB — generates steady demand for new commercial rough-in, finish plumbing, and coordination with general contractors. Our crew is experienced working on occupied commercial sites where noise, dust, and water shutdowns must be carefully managed around business hours.
Grease Traps, Commercial Kitchens, and Restaurant Plumbing
The restaurant corridor along Highway 80 and the fast-casual and sit-down establishments near the Music City Mall area generate consistent grease trap service calls. Odessa's City Code requires properly sized grease interceptors for any food-service establishment that discharges to the municipal sewer system. Resolv installs, pumps, and inspects grease traps for Odessa restaurants, and we understand the cleaning schedules and documentation the city's pretreatment program requires.
Commercial kitchen drain systems are among the most abuse-prone plumbing in any building. High-volume dishwashers, three-compartment sinks, floor drains under fryers, and floor scrub operations all push grease and food solids through the drain system daily. We perform hydro-jetting of commercial kitchen drains and can camera-inspect lines to identify root intrusion or grease buildup before a backup closes a kitchen during dinner service.
Odessa College, UTPB, and Educational Facility Plumbing
Educational facilities in Odessa — including Odessa College's main campus, UTPB, and the ECISD school district's many buildings — present commercial plumbing needs that differ substantially from private sector work. Campus buildings often have aging domestic water systems installed decades apart as facilities expanded, creating inconsistent pipe materials, pressure zones, and fixture generations. Our technicians assess each building's as-built condition before recommending repairs, rather than applying a one-size approach.
School plumbing compliance requirements in Texas include lead-free fixture standards, backflow prevention on labs and irrigation connections, and ADA-compliant restroom fixture heights and clearances. Resolv has performed ADA retrofit projects for institutional clients in Ector County, coordinating with facility managers to minimize disruption to occupied buildings during the academic year.
Recent Commercial Jobs in Odessa
Grease Trap Replacement at Highway 80 Restaurant
Problem: A full-service restaurant on the Highway 80 corridor received a notice of violation from the City of Odessa's pretreatment program after a routine inspection found their undersized grease trap overflowing and bypassing directly to the sewer. The existing trap had never been upsized from the original build-out despite the restaurant expanding its kitchen capacity.
Diagnosis: We measured the kitchen's combined fixture unit load from all dishwashers, sinks, and prep equipment. The existing 250-gallon trap was sized for a smaller operation and was being overwhelmed by daily volume. The inlet and outlet baffles had also corroded through, eliminating the trap's ability to separate grease effectively.
Fix: We installed a new 1,000-gallon in-ground grease interceptor in the parking lot service corridor, properly vented and connected to the kitchen drain stack. The old trap was decommissioned and capped. New access risers were brought to grade for easy service access. We coordinated the installation to occur overnight to avoid closing during business hours.
Outcome: The restaurant passed its follow-up inspection from the city's pretreatment program. The owner reported that pumping frequency dropped from monthly to quarterly because the new trap was properly sized for actual flow volume.
Backflow Prevention Compliance at Odessa Medical Office Complex
Problem: A multi-suite medical office complex near Medical Center Hospital received a compliance notice from the City of Odessa Water Utilities requiring installation and annual certification of backflow prevention assemblies on all potable water connections, including the irrigation system and the lab sinks in two medical suites.
Diagnosis: We surveyed all connections across eight suites and the shared irrigation system. Three suites had no backflow devices whatsoever on their lab sinks. The irrigation backflow preventer was a non-approved atmospheric vacuum breaker that did not meet the city's high-hazard cross-connection requirement given the fertilizer injection system in use.
Fix: We installed reduced-pressure zone assemblies on each lab connection and replaced the irrigation device with a properly rated RPZ assembly. All devices were tested and certified using our state-approved test kit, and we prepared the test reports required for city submission.
Outcome: The complex was brought into compliance before the city's deadline. Annual re-certification is now on a service agreement with Resolv, removing that compliance burden from the property manager's plate.

Commercial Service Area — Odessa, TX
Odessa's economy drives continuous commercial construction and renovation. New restaurants, hotels, and retail spaces along Highway 191 and east Odessa require professional plumbing rough-in that meets the International Plumbing Code and local amendments. Existing commercial buildings in downtown Odessa often need plumbing upgrades to support new tenants or comply with updated health department requirements. Resolv Services handles both new construction and retrofit projects, coordinating with general contractors, building inspectors, and property managers to keep commercial plumbing on schedule and up to code.
The City of Odessa enforces the International Plumbing Code with local amendments that govern everything from grease interceptor sizing for food service establishments to backflow preventer requirements for medical and industrial facilities. Commercial plumbing permits in Odessa require submittal of plans showing fixture counts, pipe sizing calculations, and drainage layouts before work begins, and the city inspector must approve rough-in before walls close up. Tenant build-outs that add or relocate plumbing fixtures trigger new permit applications even in existing buildings. Resolv Services navigates Odessa's permitting process routinely, preparing accurate submittals and scheduling inspections that keep commercial projects on track without costly delays from code violations or failed inspections.
