Blocked drains are notorious for bringing a halt to any well-oiled business operation or a festive occasion. The problem with a blocked drain is that it is hidden, well out of sight and typically is not on most business owners’ radar.
From a customer’s perspective, there is nothing more unappealing than facilities that are not well maintained. Overflowing toilets and sinks, closed facilities, damp walls, and smells due to the accumulation of dirty water, are just some of the problems that can be caused by blocked drains. Gems' Cherry D-Odouriser is particularly useful in eliminating unwanted odours caused by the accumulation of dirty water.
Lurking in your drains could be problems ready to wreak havoc on your business
As we approach winter, the possibility of drains becoming blocked is ever increasing.
Prevention, maintenance, and monitoring are good practices if we seriously want to avoid both the disruption and expense associated with our businesses or private lives.
Kitchen drains cause the most problems. Typically, fat and oil would flow quite easily with water through a drainpipe however, as the winter season sets in, pipes become colder, and the fat solidifies causing pipe blockages.
Drains are often near the bottom of our priorities until faced with emergency call-out fees, starting from £175 a time, and can quickly escalate into much more expensive repairs.
Prevention is better than a cure
Gems Hygiene can prevent expensive call out and repair bills with Blast - Heavy Duty Drain Cleaner, useful for regular maintenance and unclogging drains.
