Background
Rescue Rod is a well-established drainage and plumbing services provider based in Poole, Dorset. With a growing client base and increasing operational demands, they recognised the need to upgrade their communication and IT infrastructure to improve efficiency and support their expanding business operations.
To achieve this, Rescue Rod partnered with Town & Country Communications to overhaul their outdated systems and ensure they had a reliable, modern, and future-proof setup in place.

- Poorly Structured Wiring: The office's wiring was disorganised and prone to faults, leading to frequent issues with connectivity and IT hardware.
- Limited IT Support: Rescue Rod's existing IT support was insufficient for their growing needs, particularly with their Microsoft 365 services, which required regular maintenance and updates.
