Health & Education Sewer & Drainage Maintenance
Campus style sites such as schools, colleges, universities and hospitals often have complex and perhaps poorly documented drainage systems, a legacy of extensions and changes over many years.
Waterflow have a long history of delivering CCTV drainage surveys, CAD mapping, jetting and no-dig repairs for Health and Education establishments safely and with minimum disruption. We are sensitive to the particular concerns regarding hygiene, health & safety, vulnerable students / patients and environmental issues such as clinic times, lunch times, noise, dust and even parking.
Gullies & channel drain maintenance
Car-parks, large roof areas and open spaces, typically a part of the campus environment, often receive large volumes of rain water during storms.
To avoiding localised flooding and any resultant damage, Waterflow provide regular inspection and maintenance services to ensure gullies and linear channel drains are clear and free flowing.
Foul water system location, mapping & maintenance
Toilet blockages through student / patient abuse are common. Frequently, there is no drainage plan and a lot of searching is required to identify the correct covers to lift. Waterflow will work closely with your key staff (estates, reception, security etc.) to establish where covers may be, identify any access restrictions and ensure we minimise any disruption.
To enable fast effective resolution of future problems, we recommend that foul drainage runs are mapped and covers clearly tagged or marked – this also helps compliance with Environment Agency pollution prevention guidelines. Waterflow can support you in this process with anything from free of charge advice, through to a fully managed service.
Drainage grease traps, oil & fuel interceptor maintenance
Regular maintenance of these drainage pollution control devices is a legal requirement for many. Waterflow offer a fully managed service or reactive maintenance as appropriate to your management strategy.
Our services include maintenance such as emptying, cleaning and mechanical boring of runs to and from traps and pits and bio-remediation through liquid dosing systems, sachets and pillows to reduce maintenance visit requirements and reduce incidence of blockages and odours. We can offer advice on a full non-chemical bio-cleaning regime to reduce your environmental impact.
