Rising Main Problem? Here's How We Find and Fix It
A rising main carries wastewater under pressure from a pump station to a higher discharge point, so when something goes wrong, the impact is immediate: alarms, lost pumping capacity, and a real flooding risk. Because the line is pressurised, the symptoms can show up away from the actual fault.
Our engineers will investigate the system, checking pumps, valves and likely blockage points, to confirm exactly what's wrong. We'll then recommend the right fix, whether that's clearing a blockage, repairing a leak, or addressing a valve or pump fault causing the problem.
