Where costs are recharged to leaseholders, landlords in England and Wales may need to consult under section 20 of the Landlord and Tenant Act 1985 before qualifying works start. We provide itemised costs per block to support that.
What does it cost in the South West?
We price communal area refurbishment in the South West after a survey rather than from a guide range, because the scope of floors, lighting, door entry and fire safety items varies from block to block. Send us the details and we will arrange a visit.
How do we deliver it?
We report any fire safety defects we find in the area, such as missing signage, damaged doors or breaches in compartmentation, even where they are outside our scope.
