Pump Station Servicing in Haywards Heath

Servicing, repairs and emergency call-outs for pump stations at homes, new developments and commercial sites around Haywards Heath.

Haywards Heath has grown steadily outwards, with new housing on the edges of the town and in the villages around it. Many of these developments sit on rolling ground, and where the sewer is uphill of the homes, a pump station becomes part of the drainage. Residents often don’t notice it until the alarm goes off for the first time.

Some stations serve one house; others take sewage from dozens of homes. If the water company hasn’t adopted it, a management company or the residents usually pay for its upkeep, and a missed service can turn into an expensive emergency. A planned visit once or twice a year is far less trouble than clearing up after an overflow.

Commercial sites, care homes and schools can rely on pumped drainage too. We service stations of all sizes around the town. Anyone going down into a wet well from our team holds a confined space entry certificate, and our engineers carry the most common spares so a failed float or pump doesn’t have to mean a second trip.

What's included

What we check at every visit

A full look at the parts that keep sewage moving.

  • Advice on what goes in

    If wipes and fat are causing trouble, we’ll explain what to tell residents or staff.

  • Wet well cleaned

    Rags, fat and silt are cleared out, with the chamber emptied by tanker where needed.

  • Guide rails and chains

    We check the guide rails and lifting chains, so pumps can be lifted out safely when they need work.

  • A written report

    You get a record of what we found and anything that needs attention.

  • Run times and starts

    We look at how often the pumps start and how long they run, which can show leaks, infiltration or wear.

  • Non-return valves

    We check the valves stop sewage running back into the chamber after each pump cycle.

Breakdowns and desilting

Ground that falls two ways

Haywards Heath sits on a watershed. Land to the west drains towards the headwaters of the River Adur, while land to the east falls towards the Ouse. On rolling ground like this, sewers follow the valleys, and homes on the wrong side of a rise often need a pump to reach them.

If you’ve moved into a newer home and found a kiosk or a large lid in the garden, ask the developer or management company for the station’s records. If nobody has any, drain tracing and mapping will show where the pipes go and what the station serves.

Alarm call-outs, day or night

If the high-level alarm is sounding or the pumps have stopped, call us at any hour. We find the fault, whether it’s a failed pump, a stuck float, a corroded bracket or a panel problem, and put it right.

If the chamber is close to overflowing, we can empty it by tanker first to buy time while the repair is done.

Questions answered

Your pump station questions answered

Why are pump stations common on new Haywards Heath developments?

Because the land rises and falls so much. Where a new estate sits below the nearest sewer, or on the far side of a ridge from it, a pump station is the only way to get the sewage there. Some are handed to the water company; others stay with a management company.

Do you empty pump stations?

Yes. We empty and desilt wet wells with our own tankers, either on their own or as part of a service visit.

My pump station is noisy. Is that a problem?

New noises such as grinding, rattling or a pump running far longer than usual are worth checking. They can mean a worn bearing, a blockage or a valve that isn’t closing. Call us before it fails.

Can you look after pumped drainage at business sites in Haywards Heath?

Yes. Offices, shops, schools and care homes on low ground sometimes drain through a pump station, and a failure can close the building. We can service it at a time that suits you and leave a written report for your maintenance file.

Can you replace pumps and control panels?

Yes. We supply and fit replacement pumps, floats and control panels, and our confined space teams handle any work inside the chamber.

Can you set up a regular service contract?

Yes. We set up planned servicing for homeowners, management companies and businesses, with reminders and a written report after every visit.
