Keizer is one of the most distinct small cities in the Willamette Valley. With a population near 40,000, a regional retail anchor in Keizer Station, and a busy commercial corridor running along River Road N, the city has the infrastructure profile of a much larger municipality. Apartment complexes, mid-box retailers, restaurants, churches, and Salem-Keizer School District facilities all depend on aging water, sewer, and stormwater systems that quietly carry far more load than a typical suburban subdivision.
That is exactly the kind of work Lovett Services is built for. We are a Portland-based commercial contractor with the equipment, licensing, and crew depth to bring metro-grade plumbing and excavation capability into Keizer without you having to piece together three or four different vendors. Property managers and owners get a single point of contact for plumbing, drain cleaning, vac truck services, and underground site work, all under one CCB number.
Because Keizer sits roughly 50 miles south of our yard, we deliberately do not pretend to be a 24/7 emergency-response contractor here. Instead, we serve Keizer on a scheduled, project-driven model. That means planned maintenance programs, defined scopes of work, multi-building portfolios, and proactive infrastructure repairs that get handled correctly the first time, by a crew that travels prepared.
Beyond the core three, we bring a full suite of underground and infrastructure capabilities to Keizer Station retail centers, multifamily complexes, and the River Road N corridor. One point of contact for every system below the building footprint.
Installation, repair, maintenance, leak detection, and water service. Includes backflow testing and sump pump service. Licensed plumbers for planned Keizer work.
Rooter service, high-pressure jetting, sewer camera inspection, grease trap cleaning, and preventative maintenance programs.
Hydro excavation, stormwater maintenance, debris extraction, waste removal, and confined space support.
Site work, grading, trenching, sewer rehab, pipe bursting, concrete, and demolition.
HDD, trenchless conduit installation. PGE Certified. .75” to 24”+.
Emergency extraction, structural drying, mold remediation, and restoration.
Turnkey commercial EV charging infrastructure: power and communications drilling, concrete pad construction, and full charger installation for multifamily, retail, and fleet properties.
Working inside Salem-Keizer School District facilities means scheduling around the academic calendar, not around our convenience. Summer break is the prime window for kitchen drain rehabs, restroom rebuilds, and underground utility work at the elementary, middle, and high school campuses inside Keizer city limits. We plan multi-building scopes in advance with district facilities staff so crews are on site the day school lets out and gone before the first bell of the new year.
Retail center work has its own rhythm. Keizer Station, the Cherry Avenue corridor, and the River Road N retail strip all see peak shopper traffic from late morning through early evening, with restaurant kitchens running hardest at lunch and dinner. We stage drain jetting, grease trap pump-outs, and parking-lot stormwater service for early-morning or overnight windows so tenant operations and customer access stay uninterrupted. Vac trucks, jetters, and traffic control plans show up sequenced, not piecemeal.
Anything touching the public right-of-way or municipal utilities runs through City of Keizer Public Works permitting, plus Marion County or applicable utility districts depending on the scope. Our project managers handle the submittals, traffic control plans, and inspection coordination directly so your property team is not stuck managing the agency process. Right-of-way excavation, water service tap-ins, and sewer lateral replacements all get pulled, inspected, and closed out cleanly.
We cover Keizer and the broader North Salem metro on a scheduled, project-driven basis. Nearby communities we also serve:
When you are responsible for retail centers, apartment complexes, or school facilities, the contractor you pick has to clear a higher bar than a residential service company.
Oregon CCB #125507, fully bonded, and carrying commercial general liability plus auto coverage that meets the insurance certificates required by national retail tenants and institutional owners. Certificates of insurance are routinely issued without delay.
Plumbing, drain cleaning, vac truck service, and excavation all dispatched from one office under one project manager. No juggling three vendors to fix a sewer lateral, restore a damaged interior, and re-grade the parking lot pavement.
Every Keizer project is backed by a 1-year warranty on workmanship. If anything we installed fails within the warranty period, we come back and make it right. Twenty-seven years in business in the Pacific Northwest, and that policy has not changed.
Estimates are itemized so owners and property managers can see exactly what is included. No surprise change orders for items that should have been caught at the walkthrough. Every Keizer project closes with photo and video documentation included.
High-flow jetters, large-capacity vac trucks, camera rigs, mini-excavators, and the trucks to haul them. Keizer crews show up with the right gear for the job, not a service van and a rented attachment from a box store.
When we commit to a Keizer date, we hit it. Our regional dispatch model is built around predictable arrival times and finishing within the agreed window, so property managers can coordinate tenant notifications and access without padding the schedule.
Real reviews from property managers and business owners across the Pacific Northwest.
“These guys were extraordinary — Gary and his crew worked through the night to restore water and sewage to 26 homes. A dedicated crew that didn’t clock out until every house was up and running.”

“We use Lovett often, always calling when we’re in a pinch. The team always steps up. Ken and Andrew always come through, 100% of the time. There is nothing these guys can’t do.”
Multi-Family Property Owner
“As a facilities professional it’s always a pleasure to work with contractors who know their business. Charges were in line with expectations and the quality was first rate. An outstanding choice.”
Facilities Professional
Yes. Keizer sits about 50 miles south of our Portland yard along I-5, putting most properties within a 60 to 90 minute drive window. We schedule Keizer projects in planned blocks so our crews arrive prepared with the right equipment, materials, and permits to complete the work efficiently without repeat trips.
Absolutely. We run high-pressure jetting trucks, camera inspection rigs, and grease trap pump-out equipment that handle the restaurant and quick-serve dining locations throughout Keizer Station and the Cherry Avenue retail corridor. Recurring maintenance contracts are available so your kitchens stay code-compliant year round.
Because Keizer is roughly 50 miles from our yard, we cannot match the same rapid response time we offer inside the Portland metro. For true emergencies we will dispatch the next available regional crew, but our Keizer model is built primarily around scheduled project work, planned maintenance contracts, and proactive infrastructure programs that prevent emergencies in the first place.
Yes. Our project managers coordinate directly with the City of Keizer Public Works department, Marion County, and applicable utility districts to pull right-of-way, plumbing, and excavation permits. We handle the paperwork, inspections, and traffic control plans so your property team is not stuck managing the municipal process.
We do not publish a hard minimum, but Keizer projects are most cost-effective when they involve a defined scope of work, a planned maintenance contract, or multiple buildings in a property portfolio. Smaller one-off service calls inside Keizer city limits are still considered case-by-case based on crew routing and current schedule.
Talk with a Lovett project manager about your site. We will give you an honest read on timeline, permits, and pricing. No high-pressure sales, no surprise costs.
