Are your drains flowing?
The issue of organic material build-up in drains is a universal problem that causes drainage problems around the world. Blockages are caused by residue build-up. Once the residue forms to the point where running water cannot flow freely, an obstruction is caused that requires removal.
In industrial and commercial environments, blockages may be caused by food and build-up of organic material that can cause grease to accumulate.
Your facility is important to us. Acids, mechanical cleaning and hydro jetting can damage your pipes and fixtures; we want to increase the lifespan of your drains, cut downtime and provide sustainable solutions not just for blockages, but for all your drain maintenance needs.
Pipe Repair
Blockages in drains not only result in flooding and foul odours; they can also cause pitting and pin-hole leaks in pipes. Leaking pipes cause property damage, impact the environment, waste water and cause health and safety concerns. NCH not only treat your drains, we repair your pipes too.
Degreasers
Removing grease from surfaces and equipment minimises the amount that ends up in your drainage system. Advances in water based degreasing technologies minimises the need for solvent based degreasers, allowing you to remove grease build-up in a way that’s safe for your facility, drains and the environment.
Hand Care
Drains contain all types of pathogens; ensure these are removed from your hands through good hand hygiene. Our clean, protect and condition hand care programme removes even the toughest of soils and includes a non-abrasive natural olive stone scrub; free from plastic microbeads that harm the environment.
Address build-up before it becomes a big problem for your facility
Take action now to protect your facility from damage and stop environmental health issues caused by flooding and foul odours from untreated FOG blockages and build-up.

Clogged drain
Blocked drain
Drain problems start for many different reasons
Is your facility suffering with slow or blocked drains? Does your grease trap or lift station need frequent pump-outs? Whatever the cause of your drain problem, our experts are ready to help.
Clogs & Backups
Fat, Oil & Grease in your pipes
Clogs and backups can often be caused by fat, oil & grease accumulating in your pipes, whilst hair and other organic waste adheres to pipes. Paper, cloth or other hard to remove solids as well as organic sludge from waste decay are also common causes.
Odour and urine smell
Odour and urine smell
Foul odour is very off-putting for customers, staff and visitors. Organic waste decay is a common cause of foul odour in your premises. Gases from natural bacteria can also enter your facility through the drain and urine smell from uric salts is not only unpleasant but can also damage your pipes and porcelain.
Grease Traps
Grease Traps backing up with excessive grease
Grease build-up is a common problem associated with grease traps. As the level of grease grows, the efficiency of your grease trap decreases, resulting in frequent pump-outs, which impacts your maintenance budget. If untreated, your grease trap will overflow, resulting in costly and foul floods.
Lift Stations
Lift Stations overworking as grease coats sensors
Grease build-up is a common problem associated with lift stations. Grease can harden and cause floating “turtles” in the lift station. These can be difficult to break down and can block the floats and sensors preventing them starting the pumps, causing floods. This increases the need to pump out the lift station and replace overworked pumps; impacting your maintenance budget.

Tackling Build-up in Drains
Any build up needs to be addressed before it becomes too much of a problem. The associated risks of blocked drains are severe, causing damage to your property and environmental health issues. If a blocked drain is left unattended for too long, there is the possibility that the blockage could overload and cause a burst pipe. Severe damage to a property can result from this.
Grease build-up is a common problem associated with both lift stations and grease traps. Both need to be regularly maintained in-order-to function to their full ability. Low volumes of grease can be treated with a degreaser but when it has built up the experts need to be called in.
