Insurance preventive maintenance refers to drainage maintenance arranged under insurance policy terms or recommendations, intended to prevent future claims and reduce premiums. Common requirements include annual CCTV surveys for high-value properties, periodic jetting of commercial grease traps, and routine inspection of pump stations and macerators. Across Greater London, preventive maintenance is most often associated with commercial buildings insurance, listed buildings cover, and high-value residential insurance. Before commissioning, the policyholder should check policy wording and confirm any specific contractor or schedule requirements. The service includes scheduled inspections, CCTV recording, jetting and cleaning, and written reports filed with the insurer. Why this matters: documented preventive maintenance can be a condition of cover, particularly for properties with known drainage history, and failure to maintain may invalidate claims.
