Drain Infrastructure Management
When selling, purchasing, building and/or managing a commercial, industrial, or multi-family property it is extremely important to inspect the drain infrastructure to diagnose any current issues that exist or future issues that may arise. If a building's sanitary/storm sewer infrastructure is defective or deteriorating, you will be at risk for property damage due to flooding in the parking lots, sewage back-ups within the interior of the buildings, or more extensive drain infrastructure failures. To compound the issue, drain cleaning is often plagued with inefficiency; did you know that up to 35% of sewer lines are jetted unnecessarily as part of scheduled maintenance? Visual inspection can provide substantial savings, improve efficiency, increase safety and determine the best course of action to maintain optimal functionality or restore your system to its optimal functionality. Furthermore, these findings will help property managers identify maintenance needs & assist them in developing Preventative vs. Corrective maintenance schedules with assigned priorities to streamline their maintenance practices. In regards to selling a property, the results of the infrastructure inspection can even be used in negotiating the overall value of a particular property. You might even differentiate yourself from the competition, just by offering the due diligence of inspecting the sewer infrastructure during the analysis of the property.
There is no downside of inspecting the drain infrastructure; be in the know & avoid unforeseen circumstances which can impact your bottom line.
