Are you a letting agent or private landlord in London - Have you completed your Legionella Risk Assessment ?

If you rent out property in London you must undertake a legionella risk assessment to protect yourself legally. You also have a duty to your tenant to ensure that you have considered the risk of legionella forming in the water system of the property you rent to them.

There are many rental properties in the London area that have not had a legionella risk assessment undertaken and these landlords are leaving themselves liable to large fines for non compliance.

For the sake of a few minutes of your time and a cost of justn £12.95 is it really worth ignoring ?

Dont be one of those London Landlords that ignores their responsibilities. Run your Legionella Risk Asessment today and it will be officially lodged on our register for download at any time. If asked, you can then direct anyone to the register to see the assessment is completed and lodged.

Read our step by step guide to completing a fully compliant and legal legionella risk assessment.

On October 1st 2015 the House of Commons issued a briefing paper to clarify the legal requirements for landlords with regards to Legionella Risk Assessments.

This gives specific clarification that all landlords operating rental properties must undertake a Legionella risk assessment on each rental property they own. To see full note click here

Whilst many landlords understandably do not agree with this regulation the fact remains it is legally required.

The step by step guide provided at The LRA Register provides enough information to enable a landlord comply with the requirement in a few easy steps.

The system lodges the report on a central register with the date and time stamp of when the report was done and when it was lodged clearly recorded. If there is any issue later on it can be proven when the report was lodged.

The purpose of a Legionella risk assessment for your rental properties is to ensure that you have taken sufficient note of the possibility of Legionella in your water system and to give practical advice to your tenants, which will be contained in our prepopulated risk assessment template.

If a tenant were to become ill with Legionella and a risk assessment has not been carried out the Health and Safety Executive would take legal action against the landlord or agent.

Landlords in London have reported fees of up to £175 being charged for an outside contractor to do the assessment whilst the Health and Safety Executive have made it clear that: “Provided that the property is low risk (which includes most residential settings including houses or flats with small domestic type water systems where the water turnover is high) there is no reason why the landlord should not carry out the risk assessment themselves, provided that they are adequately knowledgeable about the water system in the property”.

If you prefer to have an assessor do the risk assessment for you please visit lraregister.com where you will find our directory of legionella risk assessors who wil conduct your assessment at a fair price.
