Common questions in Kingston upon Hull

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Kingston upon Hull?

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

Can you price remedial work in Kingston upon Hull from another company's report?

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

Who is responsible for a flat entrance fire door?

It depends on the lease, but since the Fire Safety Act 2021 the Fire Safety Order clearly covers flat entrance doors in multi-occupied residential buildings, so the responsible person must account for them in the fire risk assessment even where the leaseholder owns the door.

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.
