Solving Site Flooding where there is no Preventative Drainage Maintenance
Recently, one of our clients was facing significant flooding issues in both their car park and delivery bay areas. After conducting a thorough site survey, our team discovered the root of the problem: the large channel drains surrounding the building were completely choked—100% blocked with winter debris and compacted silt.
These types of blockages often develop gradually and can go unnoticed—until they start causing serious operational issues. In this case, the absence of regular maintenance allowed natural debris and silt to build up to critical levels, completely blocking the drainage system and resulting in significant pooling during heavy rainfall.
Our solution involved a full clean and clearance of all affected drainage runs, restoring the system’s capacity to handle surface water effectively. The result? A fully functional drainage system and no more flooding in critical operational zones.
This project serves as a timely reminder of the importance of scheduled maintenance—especially after the winter months when organic matter and silt accumulation are at their highest.
