Questions from Frome clients

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.

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

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

Which fire safety law applies in Frome?

Frome is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

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.
