Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM)
A plumbing or drainage issue is never something a business wants to deal with. Blocked drains and persistent leaks can be expensive to fix and lead to downtime and reduce the productivity of you and your team. However, untreated plumbing and drainage issues will only escalate and become more serious over time.
Plumbing and drainage problems that are not identified and resolved quickly can potentially lead to problems such as damage to walls and floors, mould, electrical faults and even structural damage that could put the health and safety of your employees at risk. That’s why, when it comes to managing your commercial plumbing and drainage needs, we recommend a programme of planned preventative maintenance (PPM).
What is planned preventative maintenance?
Planned preventative maintenance, also known as PPM, is a scheduled routine to ensure all the infrastructure related to the drainage, plumbing, guttering and grease traps in your business is inspected and maintained at regular intervals. Rather than waiting for drains to become blocked, grease traps to fill or guttering to become damaged, we preempt any problems and put a fix in place at the first opportunity.
Not only is PPM more cost-effective than expensive repair bills, but it can also avoid potentially lengthy interruptions to business operations and damage to the assets of the business itself. Every business is different and has unique plumbing and drainage requirements, so we will create a unique PPM agreement to meet your specific needs. That may include:
- Urinal and toilet pipework
- Internal and external drains
- Guttering
- Maintenance and emptying of grease traps
- Descaling of pipework
- Clearing and maintaining septic tanks and sewage treatment plants
- Clearing drains leading to soakaways
The benefits of planned preventative maintenance
There are a number of compelling benefits of planned preventative maintenance for your business:
- Reduce the number of emergency callouts to your site
- Minimise disruption and downtime
- Meet health and safety legislation and environmental standards
- Have peace of mind that your business is well maintained
- Reduce the risk of problems caused by adverse weather conditions
- Maintain your infrastructure in a cost-effective way
- Manage your budget more effectively

Start EnquiryI just thought I would let you know just how pleased we were with your service. Martin Cotton, Phil and Brian were a real credit to your company. They all worked really hard and were cheerful and optimistic over finding the leak, which was not at all obvious. It was a very difficult job but they were all very professional, and I would recommend them to anyone without hesitation. A credit to your company.

A big THANK YOU to Alan from Drain Doctor who called to our house to help with our problem recently. We found him to be a very professional and thorough worker - a likeable, sincere person who advised us fully of what needed to be done. He carried out his job well and put our minds at rest. He is a credit to your company.

Noticed water coming up from the manhole cover in the back garden of my new house Lifted the cover to find it full of mostly makeup wipes alongside other stuff. After a wee panic, we called Fife drain doctor. Was here in half an hour. Tried rodding manually with no luck, so out came the big guns (4000 psi I believe he said) and sorted it.
Thanks guys

Your company was prompt, efficient and basically brilliant. I don’t normally find myself congratulating companies but please take this as a very deserved compliment. More to the point I have already mentioned to people I know how pleased I was with the service from the two plumbers that called, and I would have no hesitation in using your company again. Please pass my thanks to the chaps that called!

Just to let you know that Chris Nelson is not only the most courteous man but the most brilliant expert in the field of drains etc. We have experienced bad water supply for 4 years since taking on our property. After umpteen visits from various service companies and no improvement I contacted your office yesterday and had a chat with Chris who subsequently arrived at 5.30pm and within minutes had diagnosed the problem, proceeded to rectify the problem and was out after an hour. We also need a new boiler which I have asked Drain Doctor to quote for and install. I shall have no hesitation in recommending your company in the future. If your company recognises STAR members of staff, I suggest Chris Nelson gets the award!
