Campsite Focus: Keep Your Facilities Up And Running

Campsite Focus: Keep Your Facilities Up And Running

The varied and arduous footfall seen at camping grounds and holiday parks can certainly take its toll on your washrooms and shower blocks. Anti-vandal, or extremely durable fixtures and fittings are of course utilised, but sometimes problems arise through general wear and tear, freak accidents, or just general misuse and abuse.

It comes with the territory and staying ahead of the curve is just part of doing business. Despite these common hiccups, there are some proven ways to significantly reduce the time a cubicle, shower, or washing area is out of order.

Regular cleaning and maintenance schedule

During peak weeks you might want to increase your cleaning schedule. During these cleans a maintenance survey can be included that reports back on the condition of main items in the washroom such as the functionality of cubicles, toilet flushers, urinals, washbasins, taps, hand dryers and changing benches. This simple check sheet can also include stock takes of toilet rolls, hand towels, and soaps too, but needs to actually be seen by the site manager daily. This ensures that any tired, or non-functioning items can be replaced as soon as is possible, or stock reordered. 

Carry select spares on site 

Anything with moving parts is going to endure a bit of wear and tear, one of the main reasons for the aforementioned check sheet. Often, as I’m sure you’re aware, these items can stop working with no prior warning, and replacements need to be fitted immediately to maintain the flow of customers passing through your washroom - a strong step towards keeping their reviews and word of mouth recommendations positive.

Carrying a collection of spares is always a good idea, focussing on items such as dispensers, a spare set of taps, shower controls, and cubicle hardware like locks, hooks, and hinges. A box of extra tiles or wall cladding is sometimes a handy thing to have on-site too, enabling you to match future repairs seamlessly.

However, a small box of spares tucked away in a store cupboard is one thing, but some of the larger items are not so practically held…
