Legionella bacteria can become a serious health risk to building users, if not properly monitored and controlled.

At BMS, we provide independent Legionella consultancy and water hygiene services that help you control these risks, meet regulatory requirements and compliance targets, protect your reputation and, ultimately, save lives.

Proactive and reactive Legionella monitoring

Legionella management isn’t a one-off exercise – it requires consistent proactive monitoring, record-keeping, and reactive intervention when risks are identified. Our approach blends technical rigour with expert, independent practical advice, giving you clear visibility of any risks in your systems, and the confidence that you’re meeting ACoP L8 obligations.

Independence matters

As we are independent, we’ll always provide you with impartial guidance you can trust.

We don’t profit from remedial works or water treatment, so our recommendations are always objective and aligned with your best interests. That means you can prioritise and budget with complete confidence.

Why Legionella control is important

  • Protect staff, customers, and visitors from waterborne bacteria
  • Avoid prosecution, fines, and reputational damage
  • Compliance with the HSE’s Approved Code of Practice (ACoP L8) and other associated guidance
