Planned Preventative Maintenance in Durham
SK Facilities provides planned preventative maintenance for commercial premises in Durham and the DH1 postcode district, with a free site survey and a fixed monthly price.

Planned Preventative Maintenance for Durham premises
Commercial property in Durham includes high-street shops and offices above, schools, nurseries and colleges and business parks and small office units. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.
For Durham sites, the first PPM visit usually finds overdue statutory items, so the opening months focus on bringing everything back into date.
What planned preventative maintenance covers
Planned preventative maintenance (PPM) is a scheduled programme of inspections, servicing and statutory tests for a building's plant and systems, carried out before things fail. We build the PPM calendar from an asset register, visit on a fixed cycle and hand back certificates and reports after every visit.
- PPM calendar matched to SFG20-style task frequencies
- Defect reports with prioritised, priced remedials
- Annual lifecycle summary to help plan capital spend
- Statutory tests booked and certificated on time

Usually over the life of the building, because planned work avoids emergency call-out rates, unplanned downtime and early replacement of plant.
Do I get certificates?
Yes. Every statutory test is recorded and certificated, and the reports are kept together so you can produce them for an insurer, landlord or inspector.

Yes. We provide planned preventative maintenance across County Durham, including Durham and Hartlepool, Middlesbrough.
Can planned maintenance be combined with other services in Durham?
