Questions from Newport clients

Do you cover the area around Newport (Gwent)?

Yes. As well as Newport (Gwent) itself we cover nearby towns including Risca, Cwmbran and Pontypool.

Does regulation 10 apply in Newport (Gwent)?

No. Newport (Gwent) is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.

Can the survey support a section 20 consultation?

Yes. The costed schedule gives a clear description of the proposed works and their budget, which you can use when consulting leaseholders. Formal consultation remains the landlord's responsibility.

What is the difference between a fire door inspection and a survey?

An inspection records whether each door passes or fails. A survey goes further: it grades each defect, recommends repair, upgrade or replacement, and costs the work so you can budget.
