EMERGENCIES

Bursts on bulk water infrastructure which operate under varying pressures, occur without much warning and the impact of this can be catastrophic, to say the least. This scenario requires a fairly rapid response and action, something that our emergency stand-by teams are equipped to handle and address.
Our emergency response teams are fully equipped, along with the necessary statutory temporary road signage (should this be required when work takes place on a public road as a private road).
The experienced teams have collectively over 40 years of experience in all forms of Bulk water assessments/response and repair. Pipe sizes range from 20mm to 850mm, and pipe material includes HDPE, Polycop, uPVC, GRP, asbestos, and steel.
HDPE welding on joints, couplings, and other fillings is all undertaken in-house. The ancillary fittings and components all form an intrinsic component of our business. These could include as part of the emergency, shut-off valve installations, PRV (Pressure Reducing Valves) installations, strainers, air valves, bulk meters, chambers, T-sections, special fittings, etc.
Proactive maintenance and assessments on all valves and fillings are given and go a long way to ensuring that bulk water infrastructure and networks are in satisfactory condition to ensure uninterrupted supply.

“Prevention is always the preferred option to that of trying to cure something” and in the construction industry, this is referred to as pro-active maintenance. Sewer network systems rely on gravity to move objects through the network, and therefore regular visual maintenance and internal camera inspections can detect potential problems that can be addressed to avoid an emergency situation.
Once our assessments are completed, we can assist you in setting up a proactive maintenance program and where work can already commence (root removal, pipe joint replacement, pipe replacement, etc.) this will be advised.
Where of course the inevitable should happen, and an emergency scenario has raised its ugly head, our emergency response, fully equipped teams will immediately be notified, and address the problem to set your mind at ease.

Blockages and sewerage pipe collapses on bulk infrastructure and networks occur fairly frequently and without warning. Rapid response to something of this nature.
