What this service should cover

Water Hygiene Monitoring should be specified in relation to the actual water systems and documented risk controls, not marketed as a generic certificate.

List your dutyholder, building type, cooling tower or hot/cold system details, existing assessment, occupancy pattern and available schematics. HSE guidance requires competent, proportionate risk management.

Before commissioning

  • Scope the affected assets and address
  • Ask for relevant competence and site-specific experience
  • Check written deliverables and exclusions
  • Understand follow-up responsibilities

What a good quotation looks like

Compare the work actually proposed, time on site, reporting or verification, the team attending, limitations, pricing assumptions and any urgent surcharge. Ask contractors to state what will be done if findings fall outside the original scope.

Common misunderstanding

Neither an assessment nor a negative sample is an automatic compliance certificate. Legal duties to manage risk remain with the dutyholder.
