Who are we?

Based in Southend-on-Sea, Tempus is a family-run business that provides facilities management in Essex, including Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend and Basildon. Offering an extensive list of services, Tempus has ten years of experience in looking after repair and maintenance needs for buildings in Essex as well as nationwide.

Facilities management services

Here at Tempus, we offer a wide range of facility management services in Essex. We have worked with clients across the county with varying needs in terms of managing their buildings.

We understand that each and every sector will have workplaces that require particular equipment, systems and working environments. We have a deep understanding of these sectors and their respective demands, whether it is a school in Chelmsford or a gym in Southend.

Over the years we have developed the following essential services which help our clients to keep their premises in optimal condition.


Planned preventative maintenance

Planned Preventative Maintenance (PPM) is vital to facilities and site management. This service will help to proactively prevent any issues or downtime that might otherwise have occurred on your site.

We work with our clients to build 52-week maintenance plans, meaning you’ll have a year-long maintenance schedule planned out in advance. We’ll include details of what the maintenance will be and how long it will take, so you’ll know exactly what’s to come and you can plan accordingly.

By regularly maintaining the condition of your systems and building fabric, you can ensure that all of its components are working properly and have a lower chance of malfunctioning.

Performing regular maintenance means you will also avoid paying large sums of money for equipment that would otherwise have had to be repaired or replaced entirely.

While PPM is a useful option for certain aspects of buildings, it is mandatory for others. Some more complicated systems will need to be manually operated by your team, which means that it’s essential to ensure health and safety compliance.

As an employer, it’s a legal requirement to make sure that your employees don’t come to any harm whilst at work. Regular PPM checks make sure that everything is working as it should be and gives you and your employees the peace of mind that nothing unexpected will occur.


24/7/365 reactive maintenance

While PPM is effective at preventing equipment and buildings from suffering downtime, emergencies can still happen at any moment. These incidents might be due to external factors that you couldn’t possibly have foreseen, but nonetheless need assistance in dealing with.

We are available for reactive maintenance call outs in Essex every hour of every day of the year. As accidents can happen to you at any time, we know it is important for you to have help whatever the time of day and regardless of bank holidays.

Whether it’s a power outage due to extreme weather or an essential piece of equipment in your building has mysteriously stopped working, you never know when you might need a team of experts who can quickly come to your aid.


Handyperson services

A handyperson is perfect for all those little jobs around your site that need doing. Instead of hiring various contractors to come and perform each task individually, it would be much cheaper and less time-consuming to have one contractor come and do it all.

Our handyperson services are very broad. You might need lighting fixtures installed in a spare office room or caretaking services to cover someone’s annual leave.

We’ll take care of whatever minor inconveniences you’re facing and save you the trouble of having to hire multiple contractors. All of our work is completed to the highest industry standards and with the goal of resolving your problems as quickly as possible.


Support across different sectors

Here at Tempus, we have provided facilities maintenance in Essex for businesses in a wide range of industries. From hospitality to childcare and everything in between, we can work closely with you to deliver an all-in-one property management service.

Depending on the sector, we can tailor our services to meet your needs. We understand that each workplace is unique, and at different times of the day, month or year, you may be more or less busy. We'll work during your idle hours to make sure that when you're at your busiest, everything is ready to go.

We have worked closely with a large restaurant and bar chain, a gym chain, an independent girls' secondary school to name a few. Over the years, our role has evolved as we take on more responsibility and provide additional support.

Regardless of where you work, we can help you. Flexibility is key to what we do, so whether you work in a small building or in one of multiple nationwide sites, we can scale our services to meet your exact needs.

Where we work

Tempus is based in Essex in the South East of England. We have worked hard over the last ten years in the hopes of being recognised as one of the most established facilities management companies in Essex.

However, we don’t limit ourselves to any one geographical area because, in truth, we work all over the UK. We have operatives based across the country which allows us to provide a nationwide reactive maintenance service.

So whether you’re in Kent or in Kirkcaldy, we’ll be able to respond to your needs and send out a friendly team member to your site. Depending on the size of your premises, we might have to send a few more team members along too.

Our ethos

Over the last ten years, we have developed and grown as an organisation. But what’s never changed are our values and our mission. Above all else, we believe that the customer is king, and we strive to provide the best possible service to all of our clients.

We take caring for the environment seriously. With all of our services, we make every effort to minimise our carbon emissions and reduce our impact on the environment. Whether we’re on-site or in the office, we are aware of our responsibilities both as individuals and as an organisation.
