Questions from Hove clients

How quickly can you attend?

It depends on location and time of day. Tell us how urgent the situation is and we will give you a firm time when you call, rather than a promise we cannot keep.

Is a temporary repair enough?

A make-safe gets the door closing and latching. It is recorded as temporary until a permanent repair or replacement restores the door's certified performance.

Do you cover the area around Hove?

Yes. As well as Hove itself we cover nearby towns including Brighton, Portslade and Rottingdean.

Which fire safety law applies in Hove?

Hove is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.
