Birmingham Legionella
Book a Legionella Risk Assessment in Birmingham
A shower nobody has run since the last tenant left, a cold water tank sitting in a warm loft, a cylinder turned down to save money: each one gives Legionella bacteria somewhere to multiply. Birmingham Legionella takes bookings for legionella risk assessments and legionella compliance audits at a set price. Tell us about the premises and a local specialist will be in touch to agree a date to walk the water system.
When a landlord, insurer or inspector asks for evidence
Managing agents, environmental health officers, insurers and lenders sometimes ask for written proof that the water supply at a property has been looked at. If a request has landed on your desk, pass the wording over when you book so the specialist knows which questions the document has to answer. Every organisation sets its own rules about what it will accept, so it pays to check with them before the visit.
Landlords with tenanted flats, guest houses, dental practices, gyms and office blocks all carry a duty to manage Legionella risk in the water they supply. A template pulled off the internet can organise your paperwork, but it cannot tell you what condition the tanks, pipework and outlets in your building are actually in. That is the part the specialist handles on site.
Why Birmingham's water systems need a local eye
Old mills, tower blocks and leisure pools each store water differently; someone who works across Birmingham knows which outlets and tanks go wrong first.

How a Birmingham assessment is arranged
Findings written up
The specialist records what was found at each tank, cylinder and outlet, the temperatures taken on the day, and which items need attention soonest. You get a document that sits alongside your routine monitoring log rather than replacing it.
Birmingham premises
Bookings come from landlords, letting agents, care homes, hotels, gyms and workplace managers in Birmingham and the surrounding boroughs. The specialist who attends is used to the water systems found in Victorian conversions, post-war blocks and new-build offices alike.
Measured on the day
Hot and cold temperatures are measured at sentinel taps, at the cylinder flow and return, and at any tank or shower serving the building. The assessment rests on readings from your system, not on assumptions about how it probably runs.
A visit sized to the building
A single-site assessment usually takes a couple of hours. Premises with several blocks, plant rooms or separate tenancies take longer. The specialist can say how much time to set aside when the appointment is confirmed.
Actions put in order
Not every finding means work. The specialist explains where extra flushing is enough, which tank needs cleaning, and what can be left alone, then puts the actions in an order you can actually follow. If remedial work goes ahead, the specialist who carries it out can provide a certificate covering it.
