Hospital drainage investigation and remediation in Bath
First Action Drainage investigated a persistent drainage issue linked to fly activity at a hospital in Bath. We identified the issue within our first two days on site and provided a report within 48 hours, setting out the remedial measures needed to address the problem.
Project Overview
Sector: Healthcare
Location: Bath
Programme: June 2026
Key Fact: Issue identified within the first 2 days
The Challenge
Fly activity had left parts of the hospital closed for months. Earlier investigations by another contractor had not resolved the issue, and the client needed a clear diagnosis and a practical route to reopening the affected areas.
The Work
A focused drainage investigation We attended to carry out a reactive drainage survey and establish the issue behind the ongoing fly activity. Our team identified the problem within the first two days on site.
Clear findings and remedial measures We returned a report within 48 hours, including the measures required to counter the fly activity. The findings gave the client a defined basis for the drainage remediation.
Remediation and return to use The identified drainage issue was remediated. Following completion, the fly activity was eliminated and the previously closed hospital areas reopened.
The Result
The investigation turned a problem that had remained unresolved for months into a defined remedial programme. Following remediation, the affected areas returned to use and the fly activity was eliminated.
