Legionella Risk Assessments
Our Legionella risk assessments identify hazards in water systems, complying with ACoP L8 and BS8580-1:2019 standards. Qualified assessors conduct site surveys, temperature checks, and asset inspections, producing detailed reports with control schemes and schematics. We prioritise actionable recommendations to mitigate risks and ensure legal compliance, supported by photographic evidence and asset registries.
Water Tank Cleaning
We clean and disinfect cold water storage tanks to PD855468 and HSG274 standards, removing sediment, biofilm, and contaminants. Using silver-based hydrogen peroxide reduces water waste compared to chlorine. Post-cleaning microbiological testing confirms efficacy, with certification provided for compliance records. Emergency disinfection services respond within 24 hours for Legionella-positive systems.
Microbiological Sampling
We collect and analyse water samples for Legionella, E. coli, and Total Viable Counts using UKAS-accredited labs. Sampling follows BS8558:2015 guidelines, with results interpreted by our compliance team. Out-of-range results trigger rapid remedial actions, ensuring systems remain within safe parameters and regulatory requirements.
Remedial Plumbing Works
Our engineers address design flaws and contamination risks, including dead leg removal, expansion vessel reorientation, and backflow prevention. Works comply with Water Supply Regulations and ACoP L8, using WRAS-approved materials. We integrate remedial actions with ongoing compliance strategies to prevent recurrence and maintain system integrity.
Legionella Training
We offer tailored training programmes for Responsible Persons and site staff, covering risk assessment, monitoring, and control measures. Courses combine theory and practical assessments, ensuring compliance with MHSWR 1999. Our training empowers clients to manage routine tasks in-house while maintaining high compliance standards.
