Questions from St Helens clients

Do you work in occupied buildings in St Helens?

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

Can you survey a whole portfolio?

Yes. Multi-site surveys are scheduled building by building and delivered as one register so you can compare buildings.

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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in St Helens?

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