​

What Is a Legionella Risk Assessment?

A Legionella risk assessment is a detailed inspection of your property’s water systems to identify conditions where Legionella bacteria could grow and spread. During the assessment, we inspect water tanks, pipework, taps, showers, hot and cold water systems, and any areas where water may stagnate. We also check for issues such as dead legs, poor temperature control, scale build-up, and unused outlets that can increase the risk of bacterial growth.

​

Once the inspection is complete, you will receive a comprehensive written report outlining any risks identified within the system, along with practical recommendations to help you remain compliant and improve water safety. Our reports are clear, easy to understand, and suitable for landlords, businesses, and commercial duty holders.

Frequently Asked Questions

​

Is a Legionella risk assessment a legal requirement?

​

Yes. Landlords, employers, and those responsible for premises have legal duties under health and safety law to assess and control the risk of Legionella bacteria within water systems. A risk assessment helps demonstrate that appropriate steps have been taken to manage water hygiene and protect occupants.

​

How often should a Legionella risk assessment be reviewed?

​

Legionella risk assessments should typically be reviewed every two years. However, reviews may also be required sooner if there are changes to the property, water system alterations, changes in occupancy, or any reason to believe the current assessment is no longer valid.

​

How long does the inspection take?

​

The length of the inspection depends on the size and complexity of the property. Most residential Legionella risk assessments are completed within 30 to 90 minutes, while larger commercial premises may require additional time.

​

Will I receive a certificate?

Following the assessment, you will receive a detailed written report documenting the findings of the inspection, any risks identified, and recommendations for remedial action or ongoing monitoring where required.
