Interceptor Cleaning

August 4th, 2026

Did you know here at John Wall Drainage Service Limited we can clean and empty Interceptor tanks for commercial, industrial and domestic customers.

We ensure that our works are carried out in accordance of the Environmental Agency requirements with all duty of care documents provided. Interceptors often have a variety of substances in them, ranging from foul waste to oil and petrol/diesel. Regular Interceptor cleaning and emptying is important to keep a system running efficiently and also helps to avoid any Environmental incidents.

Regulatory authorities such as the Environmental Agency recommend that Interceptor tanks are cleaned every six months to avoid blockages, contamination and pollution of your drainage systems.

Heavy Duty Maintenance

July 8th, 2026

Industrial sites work hard every single day — constant HGV movement, heavy machinery, production waste and weather exposure all put pressure on drainage systems. Over time, silt, debris and contaminants build up quietly inside gullies and lines, reducing flow and increasing the risk of surface water across yards and access roads.

This week our engineers have been carrying out targeted maintenance across several industrial sites, clearing heavily silted gullies and restoring full flow to critical areas. These routine interventions keep operations running smoothly, protect hardstanding surfaces, and reduce the likelihood of flooding during peak activity or heavy rainfall.

A small amount of planned maintenance now prevents costly downtime later.

Reliable drainage keeps the whole site moving.

Schools – Summer Drainage Cleans

June 22nd, 2026

With the summer holidays approaching, many schools choose to schedule drainage cleaning and maintenance while sites are quieter with no disruption to staff or pupils.

Carrying out this work during the holidays helps prevent blockages, odours and flooding when the new term begins.

If your site requires surface water drainage cleaning or any drainage repair work, our team can provide a quotation.

Planned Preventative Maintenance – Site Drainage

June 8th, 2026

Setting up a planned preventative maintenance schedule for your site drainage prevents unexpected blockages, flooding, and costly downtime.

A PPM with us typically includes:

  • Routine jetting of foul and surface water systems
  • Gully and channel cleaning
  • Gutter cleaning
  • Interceptor/Septic tank emptying and compliance checks
  • Clear reporting with photos for your records

The benefit for you is simple: fewer emergencies, predictable costs, and a drainage system that stays compliant and trouble‑free.

Why not get in touch and we can recommend a suitable maintenance plan.

School Holidays

June 1st, 2026

We are now in the second week of drainage works taking place across our school sites during the half‑term break. Teams have been repairing pipework, clearing blockages, and improving surface water drainage.

Everything is running on schedule, and completing the work while pupils are off site helps keep disruption to a minimum.
