Legionella, or Legionnaires Disease, is a severe form of pneumonia that can be fatal.
Legionella bacteria can form in man made water storage systems, and if a human inhales even a few drops of infected water, they are at risk of catching legionella disease.
Legionella Risk Assessments determine the risk of a property’s water system containing or forming legionella bacteria.
Simply request your quote using our contact form or by phone. Our customer care team will quickly get in touch during opening hours.
We will arrange an appointment with you, carry out the survey, and once completed send you an invoice.
As soon as we receive payment of the invoice, we will email your Legionella Risk Assessment. We also offer corporate accounts, with survey delivery on completion and monthly billing.
If the person responsible for Legionella safety is available during the site visit, this may be noted in the report. The management responsibilities will be outlined to include the name of the competent person, if any training is to be given to the property occupiers and the review date of the assessment.
The report will also include descriptions of any water systems, their makes and models, supported by photographs.
Any risk sources will be noted and given a risk rating. Recommendations on reducing and preventing the risks will be suggested, along with ways of ongoing monitoring and inspecting. The checks may be presented monthly, quartley, 6 monthly and annually depending on the nature of the property.
While landlords are allowed to carry out legionella risk assessments themselves, if you are unsure of the technical aspects of carrying out such a survey, do not have the time, or are geographically unable to do so, you will need to get this carried out by a third party.
Your assessment should be reviewed regularly, at least every two years, or when any changes may result in the current assessment being invalid. This includes:
Your Legionella Risk Assessment will include a site survey. The assessor will be surveying, where appropriate, things such as looking in your water tanks, carrying out flow and stagnation tests, testing how the hot and cold water is throughout the property and making notes on the systems which will include photographs.
Following the assessment, a report will be written up that will outline if the property is at low or negligible risk from Legionella.
Large or small man made hot and cold water systems with a supporting environment can lead to legionella bacteria growing and multiplying. These conditions include temperatures suitable for growth, places where water is stored or recirculated, places where water droplets are produced or dispersed and systems with rust, scale and sludge.
The basic information we need to be able to provide you with a price for the survey is:
Once we have provided you with a quote, if you wish to go ahead and book we will also need invoicing details and contact details for whoever will be meeting us on site. We don't charge up-front, but will invoice you for the work on completion, and release the report upon receipt of payment. Our pricing includes everything, so the price we quote you is the total price you will pay.
After you have booked with us we will contact you or if you prefer an alternative site contact to arrange an appointment. Once we have visited site it takes us about 10 working days to produce the report, at which point we will contact you to let you know its ready and provide you with an invoice. On payment of the invoice we will email your Legionella Risk Assessment.

Legionella bacteria, if inhaled even in tiny doses, can cause legionella disease which is a severe form of pneumonia and can be fatal.
Man made water storage systems can be at risk of legionella bacteria growth. Systems with the following conditions are particularly at risk:
Landlords of residential and commercial properties, including landlords letting a room in their house, are legally required to ensure their tenants are safe from health hazards.
Yes, landlords are allowed to carry out their own legionella risk assessments, if you are not confident how to do so, don’t have time, or do not live near the property, it may be easier to instruct a third party.
If there are changes to the water systems or its use, changes to the use of the property, new risk or control measures are issued, or any sign that the management plan is not effective, then the legionella risk assessment should be reviewed immediately.
If none of the above apply, then your risk assessment should be reviewed every 2 years.
Our prices start from £99.95 + VAT, depending on size and location of the property.
