Questions from Yate clients

Which fire safety law applies in Yate?

Yate 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.

Does the person doing the check have to be certificated?

The government fact sheet says the responsible person should be able to do the basic checks themselves and that a specialist is not needed for them. Many responsible persons still outsource the checks to make sure they happen on time and are properly recorded.

What records do I get?

A dated log for every visit listing each door, its result and photos of anything that has changed or failed.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Yate?

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