Risk assessment & compliance advice

We assess plumbing installations against the water regulations, identify the fluid category risk for each connection, and set out exactly what's needed to bring the system into compliance — from a single kitchen tap to a full commercial fit-out.

You get a clear written report suitable for sharing with your water supplier, landlord or building control.

02 / 03

Backflow prevention & correct fittings

We install the right backflow prevention device for each risk category — double check valves, air gaps, and RPZ valves for higher-risk applications — along with compliant pipework materials, isolation, and labelling.

Common works include boiling-water taps, outside taps, irrigation, commercial catering equipment, dosing systems and dental or medical installations.

03 / 03

Remedial works & notification

Where an installation fails an inspection or a water supplier audit, we carry out the remedial work, retest, and provide the certification needed to close the notice.

For new installations that require it, we handle the advance notification to the water supplier so the work is signed off cleanly.

What's included

A complete service, carefully coordinated.

Every water regulations job is assessed and carried out by our own plumbers — installed, tested and documented.

How It Works

How a water regulations job runs

A clear path from assessment to a compliant, documented installation — with one point of contact throughout.

  1. Step 01

    Assessment

    We survey the installation, classify the risk at each connection, and identify anything that doesn't meet the regulations.

    You get a written compliance report and a fixed quote for any protection devices or remedial work needed.

  3. Step 03

    Installation

    We fit the correct backflow devices, materials and labelling, and notify the water supplier in advance where the work requires it.

  4. Step 04

    Test & certify

    We commission and test the installation, including RPZ valve commissioning where fitted, and issue certificates.

  5. Step 05
