Frequently Asked Questions

What happens after a failed EHO inspection?

After a failed inspection, you typically have 28 days to address critical issues before a follow-up visit. Our emergency team can be on-site the same day to assess the situation, create an action plan, and begin implementing fixes immediately.

How quickly can you respond to a food safety emergency?

Our Gold package offers a same-day priority response. Silver offers a next-business-day response, and Bronze a response within 2 business days. We work 7 days a week, including weekends and bank holidays.

Can you help appeal an enforcement notice?

Yes. Our consultants have extensive experience working with local authorities and can help you understand your options, prepare your response, and implement the required changes to satisfy enforcement requirements.

What if we're facing an improvement notice or enforcement notice?

Both require urgent action. An improvement notice gives you time to make changes (often 28 days); an enforcement notice can mean closure risk. Either way, we treat it as a crisis. Our Silver and Gold packages are designed specifically for these situations—we'll assess what the authority found, implement fixes, retrain staff, and prepare you for re-inspection.

Can you help if we've had a hygiene emergency notice or been at closure risk?

Yes. Closure orders and hygiene emergency notices are the most serious food safety actions, but they are also where our experience matters most. Our Gold package includes dedicated consultant support, complete compliance rebuild, and 3 months of ongoing help to get you back to a safe, compliant operation before re-inspection.

Can we pay for emergency support in instalments?

Yes. While Silver and Gold packages are one-time fees, we understand urgency often means cash flow pressure. Ask us about a payment plan when you get in touch so you do not have to delay getting help.
