Engineering Inspection Services for Insurance Brokers
Independent Risk Assessment & Statutory Inspection Support
Mechanical Inspection Services Ltd provides independent engineering inspection services to support insurance brokers, underwriters and risk managers across the UK.
We work alongside insurance professionals to help clients understand risk exposure, meet statutory inspection requirements, and maintain insurable plant and equipment in accordance with UK regulations.
Statutory Inspections We Provide
LOLER Thorough Examinations​
We carry out LOLER thorough examinations on lifting equipment including:
​
✔ Passenger lifts
✔ Goods lifts
✔ Service and platform lifts
✔ Cranes, hoists and lifting accessories
​
These inspections help confirm compliance with the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 and provide assurance that lifting equipment is safe for continued use
​
PUWER Inspections
Our PUWER inspections assess work equipment safety, suitability and condition in line with the Provision and Use of Work Equipment Regulations 1998.
PUWER inspections are often used by insurers to:
✔ Identify unsafe or non‑compliant equipment
✔ Support risk improvement actions
✔ Reduce the likelihood of claims arising from equipment failure
Risk‑Focused Reporting for Insurers
Our reports are written with clarity and objectivity, making them suitable for both technical and non‑technical review.
Reports include:
​
Equipment identification and location
​​Statutory compliance status
​​
Defect categorisation and severity
​
Clear remedial recommendations
Inspection intervals and next due dates
​​​​​
This enables brokers and insurers to make informed underwriting and renewal decisions with confidence.
Independent & Impartial Inspections
Mechanical Inspection Services Ltd operates independently from maintenance contractors and repair providers.
​
This ensures:​
✔ No conflict of interest
✔ Unbiased inspection findings
✔ Trusted third‑party verification for insurers and underwriters
