Hamilton FAQs

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply in Hamilton?

No. Hamilton is in Scotland, which has its own fire safety law. The Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 cover workplaces, HMOs and other non-domestic premises; common parts of private blocks of flats are largely outside them.

How long does a replacement take?

Most single doorsets are replaced within a day, including making good. Doors are never left unable to close at the end of a working day.

Can residents stay in while flat doors are replaced?

Yes. Flat entrance doors are usually replaced in a single visit and the flat is never left without a lockable door.
