Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)

PPM involves proactive steps to prevent drainage issues before they occur, ensuring systems remain efficient and reliable. Key components include:

  • Regular Inspections
    Comprehensive assessments of drainage infrastructure—including pipes, tanks, pumps, and gullies—to detect early signs of build ups, damage, or blockages.
  • Cleaning
    High-pressure water jetting and suction techniques are used to remove debris, fats, oils, grease (FOG), scale, and other build-ups, maintaining unobstructed water flow.
  • Maintenance
    Timely repair or replacement of damaged or worn-out components to extend the lifespan of the drainage system.

This proactive approach helps maintain optimal system performance, reduces the risk of costly drainage emergencies, repairs, and minimizes operational disruptions. Call Wrekin Drain Services to discuss what PPM can do for you.

Septic Tank Maintenance

Over time, solid waste in your septic tank settles at the bottom as sludge, while grease and oils rise to form a layer of scum on the surface. Without regular maintenance, these layers can accumulate to the point where they impair the tank’s function—leading to blockages, backups, and potential damage to the drainage field.

Routine emptying is essential to keep your septic system operating efficiently and to avoid costly repairs or even replacement of the tank or drainage field.

The Environment Agency recommends having your septic tank emptied or de-sludged at least once a year by a waste carrier licensed by the agency.

Sewage Treatment Plant Maintenance

Proper maintenance of a sewage treatment plant includes regular servicing and periodic desludging to ensure reliable performance and environmental compliance.

A professional service visit typically involves inspecting the mechanical and electrical components, checking air systems, and assessing the overall efficiency of the treatment process. This helps identify any issues early and ensures the plant operates as intended.

Depending on the size of the plant and usage levels, desludging should be carried out every 6 to 12 months. This process removes the build-up of sludge and scum, maintaining effective treatment, and reducing the risk of costly damage or pollution.

Surface and Storm Water Maintenance

Effective surface water drainage maintenance is essential to ensure proper runoff, prevent flooding, reduce the risk of structural damage, and minimize environmental pollution. This involves regular cleaning, inspection, and repair of drainage systems.

At Wrekin Drain Services, we operate a fleet of Jet Vac units in various sizes, allowing us to manage all aspects of surface water drainage—whether it’s road gullies, car park gullies, channel drains, or downpipes.

Interceptor Maintenance

Surface water interceptors are commonly installed in areas at risk of pollution from surface runoff, such as car parks, industrial facilities, and vehicle maintenance sites. They are specifically designed to capture contaminants like oil, chemicals, and debris that may enter the drainage system due to spills, rainfall, or routine operations. The Environment Agency recommends servicing these interceptors at least every six months. It’s essential that any waste collected is disposed of at a licensed facility, with full documentation maintained for health and safety compliance.

Wrekin Drain Services offers tailored maintenance schedules and provides all necessary paperwork to support your regulatory and safety requirements.
