Pre-Planned Maintenance (PPM)

If our inspection finds cracked pipes, damaged joints or potential blockages, we can carry out repairs as part of your contract. Preventing problems early is less disruptive and avoids emergencies later.

Repairs may involve drain lining for cracks or high-pressure water jetting to clear stubborn accumulations. All work is carried out by certified engineers and covered by a written guarantee.

Sites in Gloucestershire must comply with local drainage and environmental standards. A PPM contract helps ensure your drainage systems are up to current regulations.

Our checks cover everything relevant for hospitality, healthcare, education, or managed properties. You’ll get clear paperwork to show maintenance and minimise compliance risks.

For properties with kitchens—such as restaurants in Cheltenham or schools in Woodmancote—grease trap maintenance is an essential part of PPM.

We inspect, empty and clean grease traps on a set schedule to help prevent blockages and back-ups in your wider drainage system.

As part of each visit, we document all work and findings in a report. This supports health and safety obligations for your site, whether it’s a care home in Aldsworth or a business in Battledown.

Our reports are clear, concise and can be used as official records for site inspections or insurance needs.

With a PPM contract, scheduled drain inspections are booked in advance so you know when to expect us. We plan these visits around your business hours or site access needs, whether at a rural property in Elkstone or a shop in Charlton Kings.

These checks use practical methods like CCTV camera surveys to spot obstructions, silt buildup, or root ingress. Afterwards, we report findings and recommended actions.

Well-maintained drainage runs more efficiently and reduces the risk of costly emergencies. In commercial kitchens or schools in Bishops Cleeve, keeping drains free-flowing prevents downtime.

Our engineers maintain the system so waste water moves smoothly and any potential slowdowns or odours are caught early. This helps businesses in Badgeworth or Uckington to keep their premises safer and cleaner.

Routine drainage system inspections under your contract include visual checks, manual rodding and CCTV surveys if needed. We look at all surface and foul drains, gullies, and manholes.

In places like Toddington or Knightsbridge, older pipework may need extra attention. We record all findings, highlight developing issues, and advise on ongoing care.

If your property in Gretton or Yanworth relies on a pump station, regular servicing is included in a PPM contract. This involves cleaning, function tests, and checking for wear.

Keeping pump stations maintained reduces the risk of flooding or pump failure, protecting your premises from water damage.

Investing in a planned maintenance contract means fewer emergencies and repairs. Small issues are found and fixed before they have a chance to become expensive.

Cheltenham Drains helps properties across Gloucestershire avoid the disruption of sudden blockages, damage or flooding by keeping drains in good working order year-round.
