Reactive Maintenance
GFM has a team of operatives that are highly experienced in reactive maintenance services and proactive works.
As a recognised multidisclipline group, we cover over 20 sectors and services across the UK.
What is reactive maintenance?
Reactive maintenance is simply ‘reacting’ to an issue, such as a breakdown or damage as soon as it occurs, covering those eventualities that you just cannot predict or plan for.
As opposed to planned preventative maintenance, reactive maintenance services ensure that any unexpected issues are fixed quickly, with minimum disruption to your business.
Get in touchReactive and proactive maintenance
It’s clear that reactive maintenance services are a necessity for all organisations however, there are a number of disadvantages associated with this approach if adopted in isolation.
Relying solely on reactive maintenance could cause problems like reduced life expectancy, create unpredictability and affect your budget, safety and downtime.
