Survey every water system on site
Your consultant surveys every tank, pipe run, dead leg and outlet - cold water tanks, calorifiers, showers, cooling towers, rarely used outlets, emergency eyewash stations. You leave with a complete picture of your water systems, risk-rated, with schematic drawings your team can rely on.
One clear, prioritised L8 report
You get an L8-compliant risk assessment that satisfies an HSE inspector, with a prioritised remedial action list ranked by urgency - this week, this month, this quarter. Clear actions your team can act on. No 200-page filing job.

Kellaway
Sector-specific compliance
Builders Merchants
Yard operations, loading safety, and customer-facing risk management. We understand the unique challenges of trade retail environments.

MHE-intensive operations, racking safety, and loading bay risks. You need someone who can induct peak-season temps fast and ensure your night shift isn't a compliance blind spot.
Manufacturing & Engineering
24/7 production, machinery guarding, hot work, and COSHH exposure. You need someone who understands the tension between output targets and keeping people safe - and how to manage both.
Garden Centres
Seasonal displays changing weekly. Family footfall alongside forklift operations. Food hygiene in the café. Whether you're one site or ten - your risks are real and your compliance matters. You need someone who sees the full picture, not just the obvious risks.
Metal Stockholders
Heavy lifting, cutting operations, and materials handling across indoor and outdoor yards. Crane safety, manual handling risks, and COSHH exposure from oils and coatings. Your consultant knows this environment - not just the regulations that apply to it.
