What does Legionella testing in York include?
When you book legionella testing, you’re looking for a clear, reliable process, not extra complexity. Our approach is straightforward. We start with a Legionella risk assessment, then put in the right checks for your site.
A typical risk assessment includes:
- A site walkaround to understand the system and layout
- Temperature checks at key points
- Sampling for laboratory analysis where needed
- A review of the controls and records you already have in place
- A clear written report for your audit records
- A straightforward run-through of what we found and what to do next
If something needs closer monitoring or remedial work, we’ll explain why and help you decide the sensible next steps.

Who needs Legionella testing in York?
Legionella control isn’t just for high-risk sites. If people are using the water system in your building, someone needs to make sure the risk is assessed and managed. In most cases that responsibility sits with the dutyholder, and ACoP L8 is the guidance organisations use to demonstrate they’re staying compliant.
In York and the surrounding areas, we commonly support:
Office and workplaces
Care homes and care settings
Schools and nurseries
Hotels and hospitality venues
Manufacturing and industrial sites
Leisure centres
If you’re not sure what level of testing or monitoring applies to your site, tell us what the building is and how it’s used. We’ll work with you to figure out the next steps.
Local expertise you can trust
York has a real mix of buildings, from older properties with adapted pipework to busy hospitality and leisure sites with changing occupancy. It’s easy for parts of a system to be used heavily while other outlets are rarely touched, and that’s where problems often start.
Most of York is supplied by Yorkshire Water, and the city sits within a wider supply network. The water is also hard, which can show up as limescale and needs factoring into how systems are maintained.
We use that local understanding to focus checks where they count, keep records clear and recommend controls that fit how your building is actually used.

Our water safety services in York
Legionella testing is often the starting point, but water safety works best when it’s managed as an ongoing routine. We can support the wider picture too.
Remote monitoring
Remote temperature monitoring gives us 24/7 insights into your water system. Sensors track water temperatures automatically, building a continuous record and flagging any potential issues. It reduces manual temperature checks, strengthens your audit trail and can cut down on unnecessary flushing, which helps save water over time.
