Emergency sink blockage clearance at a Mayfair hotel

When blocked kitchen sinks took a Mayfair hotel kitchen out of action, the engineering manager called First Action Drainage at 7am. Our engineer arrived one hour later, diagnosed and cleared the blockage, allowing hotel operations to continue.

The blockage was disrupting the hotel kitchen at the start of the day. The client needed a prompt response to restore use of the sinks, followed by a maintenance approach that would reduce the risk of another interruption.

Restoring kitchen drainage  An engineer arrived at approximately 8am, one hour after the initial call. The system was diagnosed and unblocked so the kitchen could return to operation.

Returning outside kitchen operating hours  Our engineer returned at 11pm that same night to carry out essential maintenance. This follow up work addressed the condition of the pipework after the immediate blockage had been cleared.

Planning ongoing maintenance  We designed a bespoke planned preventative maintenance package for the hotel. The client chose to proceed with the plan to reduce the risk of recurring blockages and further operational disruption.

The emergency attendance restored kitchen drainage, while the same night return allowed essential maintenance to follow the initial clearance. The hotel also adopted a bespoke PPM plan to manage the ongoing risk of repeat blockages.
