Had the following query today and wasn't able to assist  so here it is:

"We have several seals that are worn and need replacing, is it ok for our maintenance department  to change these or do we need to get a registered person to do this?"

 

Thank you

Are they competent to an evidence provable standard that would be upheld in a court of law and able to carry out the work using the correct materials in the correct manner so they would perform as designed? If so then, yes. Whilst using Third Party Accredited specialist contractors is always the preferred choice it isn't (yet) law. 

A middle ground that some places use is that they carry out the work themselves then have the TPC contractor inspect and sign off the work which still works out more cost effective than just handing the whole job over.
