Electrical diagnosis
Check supply, protection, panel, contactors, alarms and controls.
Pumping station repair for failed or unreliable sewage, wastewater and stormwater systems, including pumps, controls, level devices, alarms, valves and discharge equipment.
A station alarm does not automatically mean the pump has failed. Controls, level devices, valves, pipework, incoming flow and the rising main can create similar symptoms.
Our engineers assess the operating sequence and wider system before recommending repair, overhaul, control work or replacement.
Suitable equipment can be removed for workshop assessment where site repair is not practical.
Check supply, protection, panel, contactors, alarms and controls.
Check pumps, valves, pipework, air locking and discharge restrictions.
Assess blockages, seals, bearings, impellers and guide equipment.
Test the repaired station through its complete operating sequence.
Send the station drawings, pump and panel information, fault history or proposed duty for a technical review.
Useful fault information includes alarm state, pump run indication, sound, chamber level, recent changes, power interruptions and whether one or both pumps are affected.
Repeated failures can indicate an underlying duty, solids, control or rising-main issue. Replacing the same component without finding the cause may only provide a temporary result.
Where sewage levels or flooding create an immediate risk, use the emergency pump-station service rather than a routine repair enquiry.
Control immediate operational and access risks.
Test the electrical, control, mechanical and hydraulic system.
Complete site or workshop work to the agreed scope.
Run and test the station before return to service.
A confined-space engineering team repaired loose guide rail brackets and installed new lifting chains in a foul-water pump chamber before checking the adjoining storm-water chamber.
Recorded outcome: Both chambers were left working in automatic mode, and the planned installation was marked completed in full.

We supply, install and repair leading pump manufacturers including Grundfos, Flygt, Xylem, Wilo, Lowara, DAB, HOMA, HCP, Faggiolati, Tsurumi.
Common questions about scope, technical information and delivery.
Possible causes include high liquid level, pump failure, blocked pumps, failed floats or sensors, panel faults, valve problems, power loss or restricted discharge.
We can diagnose panel, protection, contactor, relay, alarm and control faults, subject to the panel condition and safe access.
Sometimes. Repair viability depends on condition, model, parts, duty and the cost relative to a suitable replacement.
Reduce incoming use where safe, avoid opening chambers, and contact the emergency service because there may be an immediate overflow or flooding risk.
Where accessible and within scope, the station should be tested through duty, standby, level and alarm functions.
Send the site and station information for review.
