A risk assessment lists the actions. Remedial works close them. If you manage a mill conversion, high-rise block, college or school in Manchester, we carry out the corrective work and record it.
Water Hygiene Services is an independent Legionella control company based in Leeds, about 45 miles from Manchester. We carry out remedial works for estates, facilities and property managers in the city, from any risk assessment.

What are Legionella remedial works?
Remedial works are the corrective actions that fix the problems found in a Legionella risk assessment, audit or inspection. They can be small, such as removing a dead leg, or larger, such as replacing a tank or altering pipework. We work to HSG274, supporting ACoP L8, BS EN 806 and the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999.
Unlike routine flushing and monitoring, remedial works deal with the root cause, so the same failure does not keep coming back. For the full detail, see our Legionella Remedial Works page.
- Dead leg and redundant pipework removal
- Pipework alterations to improve flow and layout
- Cold water tank repairs, new lids, insect screens and insulation
- Thermostatic mixing valves: installation, replacement and servicing
- Valves, stopcocks and double check valves
- Cleaning, disinfection and sampling after the works, where required
Remedial works in Manchester buildings
Manchester has a lot of converted mills and warehouses where water systems have been altered many times, and tall residential blocks with large shared plant. Both produce remedial actions, but of different kinds.
Work we do in Manchester includes:
- Removing dead legs and redundant pipework in mill and warehouse conversions
- Altering and insulating pipework in plant rooms and risers
- Replacing and servicing TMVs in residential blocks, colleges and schools
- Repairing and refitting tanks, lids and insect screens
- Work in occupied blocks, planned around residents and access arrangements
How remedial works are carried out
- We read your risk assessment and agree which actions are in scope, in priority order.
- We survey the work and send you a written quote.
- We agree timings with you so the work fits around your building and keeps disruption low.
- The work is carried out, with any isolation planned in advance.
- Where needed, we clean, disinfect and sample afterwards to confirm the system is ready for use.
- You receive a record of what was done and what could not be done, so you can close out the action in your risk assessment.

Questions we are asked in Manchester
How do you work in a block where people live?
We agree the programme with the managing agent, plan any isolation in advance and keep residents informed through your usual channels. Work in flats needs access, and we plan it with you.
Who decides what remedial works are needed?
Your Legionella risk assessment sets the actions. We can review an existing assessment, and agree a prioritised programme with you.
We only need one or two actions closing. Can you do just those?
Yes. We quote for exactly the actions you ask for, and give you a record you can attach to the risk assessment.
