Legionella Risk Assessment

Legionnaires’ Disease is a potentially fatal lung disease which can be caught when a person inhales water droplets containing bacteria from items such as air conditioning units. A Legionella Risk Assessment is carried out to identify any potential hazards to avoid this happening…

A Legionella Risk Assessment is carried out in a property to identify both hazards and potential hazards that may result in an individual catching Legionnaires Disease. It can help identify who is at risk from the disease. As part of the assessment, water in the building is tested for legionella and measures can be put into place to minimise any potential risks. In a workplace, how workers may be exposed is identified so measures to reduce their risk can be put in place. As part of COSHH Regulations 2002, employers are required to assess any potential risks so that these can be controlled.

The meticulous process of Asbestos Insulation Board removal demands paramount attention and precision. Such was the case in a recent job undertaken in the under stairs cupboard of a property situated in the vibrant landscape of SW London. The significance of this operation was underscored by the stringent adherence to Fully Controlled Conditions, a comprehensive framework ensuring that every facet of the removal procedure was scrupulously managed to prevent any potential release of harmful asbestos fibres.

Prior to the commencement of this intricate task, a 14-day notification period was observed, as mandated by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).

Our team of dedicated professionals, equipped with specialised gear and an unwavering commitment to safety, embarked on this mission.

Despite the inherent complexities of asbestos abatement, the team showcased their expertise by seamlessly completing the project within a single day.

Asbestos Insulation Board Removal & Disposal, Old Coulsdon, Croydon

We removed the Asbestos Insulation Boards fire break between the two properties loft spaces under fully controlled conditions. Due to the layout and dimensions of the property, the airlocks were located on the ground floor and connected to the enclosure on the landing by a tunnel. We designed the enclosure to be free standing as far as reasonably practical and was only connected to the property’s hatch, which meant we were able to undertake our works safely without causing any damage to the décor.
Work for the asbestos insulation board removal included:
1. Several site visits and meetings to decide on the best plan of action for all parties;
2. Undertook the risk assessment for all site hazards that would or could become issues during the removal;
3. Designed our enclosures and setups;
4. Produce the site-specific RAMs, site packs;
5. Allocated the Team, ordered the materials and plant and planned the mobilisation;
6. The team and the manager met on the first morning of the project and went through the whole programme during a site walk around;
7. Then the site was set up and the works were undertaken;
8. After the air testing, we installed a new fire barrier in the loft space between the two loft spaces.
