PPMs – Calling All Estates/School Maintenance Managers

Blocked drains, blocked sink, blocked toilet, or flooding issues can cause significant inconvenience to education premises, and in worst case scenarios, can lead to temporary closure. If you’re a Facilities or Estate Manager for any educational institutions across West Yorkshire give us a call as we are your local drainage company with 30 years expertise in unblocking drains, drain repair, PPMs and CCTV surveys.

 

Schools, colleges and universities throughout the education sector deal with hundreds, if not thousands of people on a daily basis and have very complex drainage requirements, and Metro Rod West Yorkshire has a vast amount of experience and expertise in dealing with this. We can offer a vast amount of service from pre-planned maintenance (PPMs) to unblocking drains and drain repair.

We were contacted by Greenhead college to attempt to locate a problematic area within the drainage system causing frequent blockages. We attended the site and utilising our iTouch CCTV camera inspection equipment alongside our sonar probe drain tracing equipment, we quickly found the exact location & depth of the problematic area. The frequent blockages were happening at a junction within a buried manhole below the carpet, preventing access into the system. Our drain tracing works gave the customer the correct information for the manhole to be exposed, providing access into the blockages whenever they occur. There was no need for any exploratory excavations to be carried out, saving the customer time and money.

“We initially called Metro Rod due to a blocked toilet that our caretakers and plumber couldn't unblock. Metro Rod engineers came out in a short time and used their specialist equipment to remove the blockage and get things working again. Whilst in college, our plumber asked the engineer if he could put his camera down a drain where we were having additional problems. This was arranged for a Saturday morning (no extra cost) and again the problem was identified. I would recommend Metro Rod for any drainage problems.”
– John Blake, Director of Finance and Resources, Greenhead College, Huddersfield

 

We are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to provide exceptional service.  We believe that prevention is better than cure. With pre-planned maintenance (PPMs) we can work scheduled in school holidays to stop any small problems that may become emergency work in term time. We have worked with Kirklees College over the years and providing them with a Pre-planned Maintenance (PPMs).

“Within my role, I have been dealing with Metro Rod West Yorkshire for several years and I have had no issues with the services they provide for the college. From surveys to emergency call-outs, Metro Rod has aided the Kirklees College to the best of their ability to suit the nature of our requirements. The staff are a pleasure to work with on-site and over the phone and provide detailed information about the work that has been carried out and any further maintenance the college would benefit from.”
Dean Robinson, Manager of Maintenance and Contracts, Kirklees College, Huddersfield

 

The best way for schools to ensure their drainage systems are running at peak capacity is to keep on top of regularly maintaining the drains’ cleanliness with pre-planned maintenance (PPMs) during school holidays. Some of the work we recommend during these periods are:
• CCTV surveys of your drains
• Urinal descales
• Repair/replace degraded manhole covers
• Gutter maintenance
• Grease trap emptying in your kitchens
• Root cutting and localised structural repairs
• Excavations
• Vermin control
