Sewage pump servicing and maintenance

How often should a sewage pump be serviced?
Most domestic sewage pumps should be serviced at least once a year. Busy commercial systems, schools, care homes and stations serving several properties usually need visits more often, depending on how much they are used and what would happen if they failed.
Planned servicing is often how faults are found early. On one London visit, a service found guide rails that had corroded and come loose, so the pump could not be lifted safely. They were repaired on site.

Sewage pump servicing: common questions
How often should a sewage pump be serviced?
At least once a year for most domestic systems. Busier commercial and shared systems usually need more frequent visits. We will recommend an interval once we have seen the system.
What happens during a sewage pump service?
The chamber is inspected, the pumps are checked to start and stop at the right levels, the floats or level sensors, valves, control panel and alarm are tested, and you get a report with photos.
Do you service all makes of sewage pump?
Yes. We are independent and service all makes, including Grundfos, Wilo, KSB, Flygt, Xylem, Sulzer, Lowara, Ebara, DAB and Pedrollo.
What if the service finds a fault?
We explain what we found and the options, and give you a written quote before any repair or replacement starts.
Can I have regular visits booked in?
Yes. A service agreement books your visits in so you do not have to remember them.
