🔴 The Challenge
An HMO landlord faced enforcement notices from the local council due to inadequate fire doors, missing smoke detection systems, and poorly drafted evacuation paths across 12 properties.
🟠 Our Solution
We completed expedited Type 3 Fire Risk Assessments across all 12 HMOs, installed linked mains-powered smoke alarms, upgraded 18 fire doors to FD30 standards, and created tailored escape route signage.
🟢 The Outcome
Enforcement notices successfully cleared, council compliance secured, and full tenant safety certified with ongoing annual monitoring.
