- Oil interceptors
- Sewage treatment plants
- Pump stations
- Grease traps
- Rainwater harvesters
Did you know?
For those customers who book a regular service with us, we send a friendly reminder a month before we’re due to visit. This maintenance agreement is part of our commitment to providing a continuous service to our customers and also enables you to meet the General Binding regulations, in maintaining your systems.
A repair-first approach
Where it is safe and cost-effective, we prioritise repairing and optimising existing wastewater equipment before recommending replacement. This helps reduce costs, minimise disruption and extend the life of your wastewater system.
Our experienced engineers work across a wide range of wastewater, drainage and pumping systems, including older and more complex installations. With decades of practical experience, we can accurately diagnose faults, identify the root cause of issues and deliver reliable, long-term solutions.
Binder engineers and staff always let me know when they are going to be on site. They work quietly and efficiently and I would highly recommend them.
Why servicing your system is important
Regular servicing helps keep your sewage treatment plant running safely, efficiently, and reliably throughout the year. Like any mechanical system, treatment plants require ongoing maintenance this helps to reduce the risks of:
- Breakdowns
- Unpleasant odours
- Flooding
- Costly emergency repairs.
Routine servicing also allows engineers to identify potential issues early, helping to prevent larger problems that could affect the performance of the system, the surrounding environment, or compliance with discharge regulations.
Keeping your system properly maintained can also help extend its lifespan and ensure wastewater continues to be treated effectively.
What to expect when your system is serviced
During a service, our engineers carry out a full inspection of the system to ensure it is operating safely and efficiently. Regular servicing helps identify small issues before they become costly repairs or system failures.
A typical service may include:
- Checking pumps, blowers, alarms, and electrical components
- Inspecting sludge levels
- Checking mechanical components for wear and tear
- Cleaning filters and internal components where required
- Inspecting for leaks, blockages, odours, or signs of wear
- Assessing overall system performance
- Identifying any maintenance or repair requirements
Our engineers will also provide advice on the condition of the system and recommend any next steps where needed. Regular maintenance can help extend the lifespan of your wastewater system and reduce the risk of unexpected breakdowns.
Frequently Asked Questions
Regular servicing helps prevent breakdowns, environmental issues, unpleasant odours, and costly repairs while keeping your wastewater system operating efficiently.
This depends on the system type and usage, but most systems benefit from at least one service per year to ensure safe and efficient operation. Most domestic systems should be serviced annually, while commercial systems may require more frequent maintenance depending on usage. If you’re unsure you can speak to our team about your individual requirements.
Our engineers carry out a full inspection of the system, checking mechanical, electrical, and operational components, and carry out cleaning and maintenance where required.
