Questions from Southampton clients

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.

Can you help with an insurance claim?

We photograph the damage and provide a written description and quotation that insurers usually ask for.

Which fire safety law applies in Southampton?

Southampton 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.
