KGB Property Services Limited conduct planned maintenance and mapping of drainage systems on behalf of Local Authorities and other organisations responsible for drainage. This includes mapping of drains and other under and over ground features and providing information through a web based subscription service. KGB identified a need for the mapping of drains as there was no previous information available in a complete and accurate format.

Mapping in conjunction with a drain cleaning program makes it a cost effective procedure. Drains are generally not cleaned on a regular cycle and after heavy rainfall, flow at a much reduced capacity causing sewage contaminated flooding. KGB Property Services Limited provides the mapping results via subscription based software.

The Future

In early 2006, drain cleaning is a predominantly reactive service. With tightly managed procedures, KGB Property Services Limited will create and define more planned maintenance operations where mapping technology will be widely used. This will provide more detailed information on underground features where KGB Property Services Limited will be the leading industry provider of this information.
