§ 01

Written for your trade, not a template bank

Every trade has hazards the generic templates miss, and principal contractors know exactly what a copy-and-paste RAMS looks like. We write for the task in front of you.

For electricians, that means safe isolation and proving dead, the justification if any live testing is unavoidable, cable routes and access, and the test equipment you are actually carrying. For plumbers, hot works and soldering, work in occupied homes, water hygiene and the awkward confined corners of airing cupboards and underfloor voids. For roofers, the Work at Height Regulations hierarchy done properly: scaffold and edge protection before harnesses, fragile surface checks, weather limits with real numbers.

Plasterers get dust control, hop-ups and working platforms, manual handling of boards and mixing COSHH covered without padding. Decorators get solvent and spray COSHH, ladder versus tower decisions, and sensible controls for occupied premises. Carpenters get wood dust extraction, saw and nail gun safety under PUWER, noise, and fixing at height. Bricklayers get scaffold loading, silica from block and brick cutting, cement dermatitis and the manual handling that wrecks backs.

Groundworkers get excavation support, service avoidance with CAT and genny scanning, plant and pedestrian segregation and lifting operations. Strip-out crews get asbestos awareness and the refurbishment survey check before anything comes off a wall, dust, noise, temporary support of what stays, and waste routes. General builders get the multi-trade sequencing document that ties a whole small job together, written so one RAMS covers the works you actually control.

If your trade is not in that list, order anyway and describe the task in the intake. If we cannot write it properly, we say so and refund the order before any work starts, rather than sending you something generic.

Straight answers

A RAMS is only worth having if it describes your job and would stand up at the site gate. You confirm the facts about the task; we turn them into a document a principal contractor will approve and your operatives can actually be briefed from.

§ 05

RAMS questions, answered

Is a RAMS a legal requirement?
Risk assessment is a legal duty for every employer and self-employed person under the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, and the significant findings must be written down if you have five or more employees. The phrase "RAMS" itself is not in the legislation, but in practice principal contractors will not let any subcontractor start on a managed site without an approved RAMS, whatever your size. That approval is what we write for.
When does the 24 hour clock start?
When you complete the ten-question intake after checkout, not at the moment of payment. A standard RAMS is delivered within 24 hours of a completed intake; complex or high-risk tasks run 24 to 48 hours. If we ever cannot meet the clock, we tell you before you pay, not after.
What if the principal contractor asks for changes?
Send their comments over. One revision round is included with every document and we normally turn revisions around the same working day. Further revision rounds, or new tasks on the same job, are covered by the £59 additional-RAMS rate.
Why not just use an AI generator or a cheap template?
Because generators and templates produce the generic paperwork principal contractors have learned to reject: wrong hazards, boilerplate controls, no connection to your actual site. Every SITEPAPERS RAMS is written for your specific task and then reviewed by an SMSTS qualified professional who has run live UK sites. If a cheap template genuinely does the job for you, use one; when it gets knocked back, we are here.
Is there anything you will not write a RAMS for?
Yes. We do not write RAMS for licensed asbestos removal or for structural demolition. Both need specialist contractors with their own competent persons and, for licensed asbestos work, an HSE licence. If your task touches either, we will tell you and point you at the right kind of help rather than sell you a document.
