Questions from Kidderminster clients

Do you cover the area around Kidderminster?

Yes. As well as Kidderminster itself we cover nearby towns including Stourport-on-Severn, Stourbridge and Kingswinford.

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.

Which fire safety law applies in Kidderminster?

Kidderminster 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.

Can you check the doors from the corridor only?

Part of the check can be done from outside, but the self-closer and the inside face need access to the flat. Where we cannot get in we record what was checked and why the rest was not possible.
