Winsford FAQs

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Winsford?

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

What if a leaseholder has fitted a non-fire-rated door?

The report flags it with photographs and the evidence available. The responsible person and fire risk assessor then decide on the action, which may include asking the leaseholder to replace it.

What does best endeavours mean?

The government fact sheet describes it as the responsible person deciding how to engage residents to gain access and keeping evidence, such as correspondence, where access is refused or not possible.
