There’s been a lot of talk in the media recently about rogue traders – cowboys posing as professional tradespeople who leave individuals and businesses out of pocket and potentially at risk with work which falls way short of the necessary standards.

When it comes to health and safety, not picking the right contractor for you could prove to be a fatal mistake, compromising the health and wellbeing of your colleagues and leading to costly fines which could put your business at risk.

In this blog, we’ll explain more about our credentials and why Acorn Safety Services continues to be a trusted partner in an increasingly uncertain world.

Knowledge and experience you can rely on

At Acorn Safety Services our reputation is everything which is why we’ve made sure that our business is made up of fully-trained, fully-accredited professionals with decades of experience in the health and safety sector.

We constantly put our systems and processes through rigorous checks to ensure they not only meet  – but exceed – the latest regulations, earning us recognition from a number of leading industry bodies including smas worksafe, SafeContractor, The Institute of Fire Safety Managers, Chas, CSCS and Constructionline.

Over the years we have worked alongside some of the biggest names in the UK including Bovis Construction, London Midlands Trains, HSBC Data Centres, BP, British Gypsum, Heathrow Airport and Taylor Woodrow.

All of the health and safety and CDM services we provide are fully certified, giving you complete reassurance in the quality, standards and expertise you can expect from our company.

Health and Safety is our business

We live and breathe health and safety and our dedicated team of experts does the same.

We employ the best in the business – talented, highly-skilled and fully-accredited professionals who work hard to offer you a service which is second to none.

Our team of directors are experts in their field and are rewriting the agenda when it comes to health and safety. Ian Stone and Neil Munro are also published authors having written the best-selling book Fear and Loathing of Health and Safety, which has a five star rating on Amazon.

We offer a full range of services to help ensure your business remains fully compliant with the latest regulations.

As well as being an overarching health and safety and CDM consultancy we also specialise in fire risk assessments and legionella testing, both of which need to be carried out regularly.

In addition, we offer a full asbestos service – helping to identify if your property has it and supporting with a full management process if it does.

As a fully independent health and safety consultancy, the team at Acorn Safety Services will offer you impartial advice you can always rely on.

The price we quote is the price you’ll pay – no hidden surprises

While we understand that money is at the forefront of many people’s minds at the moment, ensuring your business’s health and safety and fire safety is a legal requirement which cannot be ignored.

We don’t have ‘a one size fits all approach’ to our prices. We’ll get to know you and your business, work with you to learn more about your requirements and then tailor a quote based on your individual circumstances and the work you need us to do.

What we can tell you is that the price we quote is the price you will pay – no hidden costs and no nasty surprises.

We have offices in Northampton, Wolverhampton and London and a team of experts which travels to clients right across the UK.

Whenever you need us, we’ll be here for you.
