PriDE quick off the mark to stop leak damage

PriDE’s quick reaction prevented a major water leak from causing tremendous damage. The customers on site passed on their appreciation and gratitude for seriously reducing the impact of the leak, which was in the roof space above the kitchens in the OR’s Restaurant at Worthy Down. The PriDE team, lead by Ralph Pond, and contractors worked hard so the kitchen was only out of use for a few hours in the afternoon. The workmanship also prevented the hiring of a portable kitchen unit, saving a huge expense, or having to prepare and cook food in another kitchen then transferring the food to the dining area.

 

 

 

 

Andy Kirby, Works Service Liaison Officer, stated

‘It is quite remarkable that PriDE managed to get the kitchen back up and running ready for the evening meal that day, considering the dramatic state the kitchen was in at 1300hrs’.
