Unmaintained Rainwater Outlets Could Lead to Costly Repairs

Effective rainwater drainage is essential to prevent water from accumulating on roofs and causing damage. Blocked or malfunctioning rainwater outlets can lead to serious issues, including leaks, structural damage, and water ingress, particularly in flat-roofed buildings. Without regular testing and maintenance, these outlets can become clogged or inefficient, resulting in costly repairs. Rainwater outlet testing ensures that your drainage systems are working properly, protecting your building from the risks associated with standing water.

How we Help Your Project

Ensure Water Drainage

RAM’s rainwater outlet testing ensures that your building’s drainage system functions efficiently, allowing rainwater to flow away from your roof without obstruction. This prevents water from pooling on the roof, safeguarding your property from leaks and potential structural damage caused by poor drainage.

Prevent Water Build-Up

By regularly testing your rainwater outlets, RAM helps prevent water build-up that can lead to roof leaks, internal water damage, and long-term structural deterioration. Effective drainage is crucial to maintaining the overall health and longevity of your building.

Identify Outlet Blockages

Our tests quickly identify any blockages or partial blockages in your rainwater outlets, ensuring they are addressed before they cause significant problems. By detecting these issues early, RAM helps you avoid costly repairs and maintain the effectiveness of your drainage system.
