Keep your premises working.

A blocked or damaged drain can interrupt access, affect facilities and create repeat maintenance costs. Flo-Rite helps commercial clients identify the cause, understand the options and arrange the work needed.

From a single property to a managed site, we discuss access, working hours and the people using the building. Our approach combines practical drainage work with clear communication, agreed scope and the information your site team needs.

Arrange routine work

Schedule suitable drain cleaning and general plumbing maintenance, including attention to leaks, toilet mechanisms, taps and waste pipework.

Plan

Agree the next steps

We explain the findings, discuss any recommended repairs and agree access and timing for future visits. The plan is tailored to what the property needs.

Our work · Commercial drainage repair

A damaged section.
A targeted structural repair.

Real photographs from a commercial drainage project: the damaged buried section, the installed resin patch and the work area.

Repairing from inside the drain

The CCTV images show damage at a buried drainage section, followed by the completed structural resin patch. The repair treats the affected length within the existing pipe.

Patch lining is an option where the pipe and surrounding conditions are suitable. Significant collapse or displacement can require excavation and replacement instead.

Survey first. Repair to suit.

The condition of the pipe determines the approach. We explain the findings and the proposed work before proceeding.

Commercial drainage questions

Which areas do you cover for commercial drainage?
Flo-Rite is based in York and supports commercial drainage work across Yorkshire, including Selby, Leeds, Harrogate, Wetherby, Tadcaster and Malton. Send the site postcode and scope so we can confirm availability for your project.
Can you provide RAMS before work starts?
Yes. Let us know your site requirements when enquiring so the relevant risk assessments, method statements and supporting information can be prepared for review. Site conditions are checked and the team is briefed before work begins.
Can drainage repairs be carried out while the premises are occupied?
This depends on the location, the work and which facilities are affected. We discuss access, barriers, working hours and any necessary restrictions with your site contact. Continued drainage use cannot be assumed until the arrangements are agreed.
Can you line a damaged commercial drain without excavation?
Suitable localised damage can be repaired with structural resin patch lining through existing drainage access. CCTV inspection helps assess suitability. Fully collapsed pipework or substantial displacement may require excavation and replacement.
Do you offer planned maintenance?
Yes. We can discuss planned drainage cleaning, inspections and general plumbing maintenance based on the condition of the property and previous problems. The work, access arrangements and visit frequency are agreed with you.
What should I send with a commercial drainage enquiry?
Please include the site address or postcode, a description of the problem or proposed works, any CCTV report or photographs, access restrictions and your preferred dates. Let us know about supplier onboarding and RAMS requirements too.
