Risk Assessment Description:

This plastic and push‑fit pipework installation safety checklist template from Health & Safety Zone helps plumbers, heating engineers and Gas Safe registered engineers confirm that pipework is installed safely and complies with the relevant regulations.

It covers planning, competence, work environment, specific hazards, pipework and fittings, materials, PPE, collective safety measures, emergency provisions and completion tasks. It references the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999, BS EN 806 and HSE guidance on safe pipework installation.

The checklist is intended for use at each stage of a pipework project – before work begins to verify design and competency, during installation to confirm each fitting and support is correctly installed, and after completion to record testing results and ensure the system is ready for service. It supports compliance with the Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999 and BS EN 806 by prompting verification of isolation, pressure testing, proper solvent use and documentation.

Use this checklist for:

  • Pre‑installation checks – verify design, materials and competence before work begins.
  • During‑installation checks – ensure each pipe and fitting is correctly installed and supported.
  • Post‑installation sign‑off – confirm testing, documentation and make‑safe actions are completed.

Each item is answered Yes, No or N/A – any No answer must be addressed before the next stage of work.

Fully editable and shareable – customise the questions to your site, download as a PDF and share with your team.

Compliant with: Water Supply (Water Fittings) Regulations 1999; BS EN 806; HSE guidance on pipework installation.

Can I customise the checklist questions to my workplace?

Yes — fully. Add your own questions, edit or remove any of the pre-written ones, and reorder them to suit your site, task or inspection before you download.

Are the safety checklists suitable for UK workplaces?

Yes. The checklists are written around UK health and safety good practice and HSE guidance, and are suitable for inspections, audits, toolbox checks and routine workplace monitoring.

Do I need an account to use the checklist templates?

No — guests can build and download a checklist for free without signing up. Register a free account if you want to save checklists to your dashboard and edit them later.

Can I add my company logo and branding to the checklist?

Yes — add your company logo, colours and details on Standard and Pro plans, so the exported checklist carries your own branding. Guests and Free downloads carry Health & Safety Zone branding.

How do I complete the checklist once it is downloaded?

The exported checklist is a blank, ready-to-use document: print it and tick Yes, No or N/A against each question and write any comments in the notes space, then sign and date it in the sign-off section.

What types of safety checklist can I create?

We are building specialist checklists across a wide range of subjects and industries — fire safety, workplace inspections, equipment and machinery checks, site inductions, vehicle checks, PPE, first aid and more. Browse by category to find the right one.

How often should safety checklists be completed?

It depends on the activity and your risk assessment — many checks are daily, weekly or monthly, while others are done before each task or shift. Completed, dated checklists provide a useful record of your monitoring.

Are the checklists a substitute for a risk assessment?

No. A checklist is a monitoring and inspection tool that complements your risk assessments and method statements — it helps confirm that controls are in place and working. Use them alongside your risk assessments.
