Local projects

Educational facility in Newton Abbot - When the construction of a new college in Newton Abbot led to a heating enquiry, we proposed the rent of an Aurora FH111 unit which ensured vital works could continue throughout winter.

Animal reserve in Cornwall - A long-term pump solution was designed for the National Seal Sanctuary in Cornwall after their existing equipment broke down unexpectedly.

Truro County Council server room - When the air conditioning system in a vital IT facility failed, we sent an engineer to the depot to conduct a survey of the premises. It was decided that a number of PAC22 units would be required, where they remained on hire for six months.

Engineering contractor in Dawlish - When loose material had accumulated on an embankment due to recent bad weather, our client wanted to flush water to create a landslide. We delivered a high capacity pump which delivered water at high pressure, ensuring the mound did not slip and affect a nearby railway line.

Waste facility in Plymouth - Andrews Sykes was contacted to provide a pumping solution which diverted sewer flows as and when they occurred. The site was located at the top of a main storm sewer, meaning a preliminary assessment was required to ascertain the best course of action.

Shipyard in Falmouth - A client needed a large number of ventilation fans to remove paint fumes and dust while yachts and ships underwent repair work. These were delivered and installed on the same day of enquiry, along with relevant ducting.

Devonport Dockyard - When water filled inspection shafts of several docks, accurate pumping was required to ensure this was quickly removed.

Housing development in Cornwall - Planning permissions issues and a road closure meant that storm water culverts could not be connected into the water system. We supplied two super silent pumps along with solar charging panels to ensure they would start automatically if needed.

Flooding in Newton Abbot - A medicine production company contacted Sykes Pumps after suffering flooding at their premises. We delivered two super silent pumps within hours, ensuring no manufacturing equipment was damaged by the water.

Wimbleball Dam in Exmoor - To overcome the problem of drilling waste water, the client required a pumping system to return water back through a filtration system for reuse. In order to affectively assist this process, we provided both silenced and submersible pumps to help circulate filtered water.

Bowling green in Exeter - When a client’s pump system failed, urgent action was required to avoid any further disasters. We supplied and installed two suitable replacement units within two hours and conducted a follow-up assessment a week later, ensuring the solution was working properly.
