Questions from Market Harborough clients

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Market Harborough?

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

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 the checks apply in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland?

No. Regulation 10 is English law. Fire safety law elsewhere in the UK differs in scope, and many landlords and factors adopt the same quarterly routine as good practice.

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

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