Alfreton FAQs

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Alfreton?

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.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Alfreton?

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

What does best endeavours mean?
