Questions from Ipswich clients

Which fire safety law applies in Ipswich?

Ipswich 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.

Can you help with an insurance claim?

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

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 work in occupied buildings in Ipswich?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Ipswich can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
