At Mantank Environmental Services, we specialise in providing expert drainage maintenance services for large-scale commercial and industrial sites across the UK. From business parks and shopping centres to hospitals, universities, and manufacturing facilities, our clients rely on well-maintained drainage systems to keep their sites safe, compliant, and fully operational.

Poorly maintained drainage is one of the leading causes of flooding, environmental hazards, and costly repair work. Regular and proactive maintenance is not only more cost-effective than emergency call-outs, but it also helps preserve the long-term health of your drainage infrastructure. 

Why Drainage Maintenance Matters

Drainage maintenance involves the routine inspection, cleaning, and repair of your drainage system — including surface water drains, foul drains, and interceptors. For larger sites with more extensive drainage networks, ongoing maintenance is essential to ensure consistent performance, compliance with regulations, and avoidance of costly downtime.

Without regular attention, drains can become blocked by:

  • Silt and debris build-up
  • Grease and fat deposits
  • Tree root ingress
  • Structural damage
  • Foreign objects and waste

When left unchecked, these issues can escalate into full drain blockages, overflows, foul odours, water backing up into buildings, and even structural damage to pipework or surrounding foundations.

Sewer Drain Maintenance: An Essential Component

In addition to surface water systems, sewer drain maintenance is vital, particularly on sites where large volumes of wastewater are generated. Whether it’s a commercial kitchen, industrial process, or public toilet facilities, these systems are under constant pressure. Without regular cleaning and CCTV inspections, sewer drains can easily become overwhelmed, leading to serious hygiene and environmental risks.

Our sewer drain maintenance services include:

Keeping these systems clear and functional is not only a matter of operational efficiency but also a legal responsibility under UK drainage and waste management regulations.

Benefits of Regular Drainage Maintenance

Investing in a planned maintenance programme for your drainage system brings a host of long-term benefits, including:

1. Prevention of Blockages and Flooding

Routine cleaning and inspections catch problems early, preventing disruption from blocked drains or surface water flooding.

2. Cost Savings

Preventative maintenance avoids costly emergency repairs, property damage, and business interruption.

3. Compliance with Regulations

Many commercial and industrial sites must adhere to drainage and environmental compliance standards. Regular inspections and documented maintenance help meet these requirements.

4. Improved Lifespan of Infrastructure

Well-maintained pipes, gullies, and sewers are less likely to deteriorate, collapse or require full replacement.

5. Peace of Mind

Knowing your drainage system is regularly maintained gives facilities managers confidence that they’re avoiding hidden problems and future disruptions.

We offer tailored drainage maintenance contracts to suit your site’s specific needs. Whether you require quarterly gully cleaning, annual CCTV inspections, or reactive support for high-risk areas, our team will build a plan that works for you.
