Guildford FAQs

Is a missing sign a serious defect?

It will normally be recorded as a fail or advisory. It is quick and cheap to fix, so it is best done on the same visit.

Do signs go on both sides of the door?

Self-closing fire doors are generally signed on both faces. Cupboard and riser doors are usually signed on the outside only.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Guildford?

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

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

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