Engineering Inspections & Insurance
Engineering inspections are important to ensure that the machinery and equipment within your commercial building are safe to use. In fact, it is a legal requirement for a competent person to regularly assess certain items under various Health and Safety Legislation. These may include, but are not limited to:
- Passenger or goods lifts (including stair lifts and window gantries)
- Pressurised boiler systems
- Steam Pressure Coffee Machines
- Lifting equipment (including forklift trucks and cranes)
- Items involving the use of wires, chains, ropes or hydraulics
- Compressors and pressure systems
- Fixed Electrical installations
- PAT Testing
We can arrange for an inspection by a competent person visiting your premises on a regular basis, where they will assess the necessary machinery and equipment. They will then produce a report of their findings which will to be made available to you.
The report will confirm which items have passed the inspection, meaning they adhere to current, legal safety standards; and which have failed and require remedial action to enable it to pass.
Along with providing inspection services, we can arrange machinery insurance cover for your equipment. If, for instance, a piece of equipment in the building is damaged because of a power surge, the cost to repair or replace it can be significant. Sudden and unforeseen breakdown cover could respond to this helping you to get back to business as quickly as possible
