Drainage and sewage systems are coming under increasing pressure as populations rise and environmental conditions change. To keep them working at full capacity, many businesses are choosing a Pre-Planned Maintenance Programme (PPM) to make sure their drainage systems are serviced regularly.

What is a PPM program?

This is a bespoke programme we develop with individual clients based on caring for their drainage and sewer systems. It works to an agreed timetable to prevent disruption that could impact their business.

Having this plan in place means regular checks to your drains and sewers are scheduled, so it’s one job on the list you know is taken care of and you’re not reminded to check your drainage systems only when a terrible smell arises or you spot standing water where there shouldn’t be.

There are many advantages to a Pre-Planned Maintenance program, not least that it helps businesses to plan ahead and keep down costs.

The PPM in action

One of our clients made use of our PPM program at a prestigious site in London. They had a soil stack in the building’s sub-basement. Our task was to complete an afternoon of surveys to prevent blockages in the system. As it was a tight space it would put our portable kit through its paces, but we knew it would be up to the job.

Work like this is important to our clients in preventing any downtime of their facilities and ensuring a pleasant environment for customers, employee and visitors.

Many businesses don’t want to wait until there’s a problem to make sure their drains and sewers are working well because by then, the damage has been caused and that often means extra costs. If you’re one of those, contact us to talk about a PPM designed for you.
