Emergency Catering Repairs in Sussex
Planning Preventative Measures Within Your Catering Business in Sussex
By carrying out planned preventative maintenance (PPM) you can often prevent breakdowns from occurring. PPM involves regularly inspecting your kitchen equipment to make sure that it’s all working efficiently.
If any faults are identified, they can be fixed there and then or scheduled for a more convenient date. This is much less disruptive than having to arrange emergency repairs during a busy shift.
We’ll help to set up a PPM schedule that is suitable for your kitchen based on the types of equipment you have. We recommend this service to all commercial catering businesses in Sussex.
The Advantages of PPM Services
Take preventative action
PPM allows you to detect faults early so that they can be fixed before they become serious. In doing so, you can prevent disruptive breakdowns or other disasters caused by faulty equipment.
Extend the lifespan of your equipment
By detecting faults early and investing in preventative repairs, you can often extend the life of equipment. This ensures that you get good use out of your equipment before having to replace it.
Maintain safety and compliance
Your equipment needs to be maintained, not just for the continuity of your business but to make sure that it is safe for you and your employees to use. PPM could help to detect hazards early, as well as making sure that all equipment is compliant with safety standards.
Save money via maintenance
PPM can also save you money in the long run. By preventing equipment from breaking down, you can prevent loss of revenue caused by downtime. You’ll also save money by extending the life of your equipment. To start saving money today, call us today and we’ll schedule our first visit.
Commercial Catering Equipment FAQs
When machinery breaks down, this is an obvious sign that you need to seek out repairs. However, you may also want to seek out repairs if equipment is performing slowly or less effectively than it once was. Strange odours or strange sounds are also a sign that something might be wrong and that repairs may be necessary.
Ideally, you should service your commercial catering equipment every 6 months. This ensures that equipment is maintained in the best condition and that any faults are detected before they get too severe.
Regularly cleaning equipment can help to prevent many faults. While you should avoid cleaning certain pieces of machinery yourself (such as the inside of an extractor fan), you can clean most pieces of equipment. Any faults that you or your staff detect should also be recorded so that you can seek out repairs promptly.
