Why Choose Us
Who Needs A Legionella Risk Assessment
If you’re responsible for a premises — whether as a landlord, business owner, or duty holder — you’re legally required to assess and manage the risk of Legionella. This applies to offices, schools, nurseries, care homes, gyms, warehouses, dental practices, and any other site with hot and cold water systems.
Even small businesses with just a few employees must comply with Health & Safety Executive (HSE) guidance. If you have a water tank, showers, or infrequently used outlets, a Legionella risk assessment isn’t just good practice — it’s a legal duty.
Every assessment we carry out is thorough, compliant, and tailored to your site. We start with a full inspection of your water systems, including hot and cold outlets, tanks, and pipework layouts. We take accurate temperature readings, identify potential stagnation points, assess risk factors such as infrequently used outlets, and evaluate overall system design.
You’ll receive a detailed written risk assessment report, including a clear schematic drawing (if required), practical control measures, and any recommendations needed to meet ACOP L8 and HSG274 guidance. Our goal is to provide you with everything you need to remain fully compliant and protect those using your premises.
