Questions from Gateshead clients

Can you help with an insurance claim?

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

Can you price remedial work in Gateshead from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Gateshead, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Gateshead?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Gateshead is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.
