Health & Safety
As managing agents, we have a duty to ensure that our clients understand the paramount importance to keep communal area safe and free from risk or hazard to anyone who has access to them. The Landlord has an obligation to manage general risks to buildings such as fire, legionella, and asbestos. However, we understand that at times Directors might not have the right knowledge or enough time to manage these risks, so we work with them in order to create a safe and secure environment for all.
For every new client, we create a risk register that helps us and our clients to understand the level of risk the property can incur. Where necessary we obtain quotes for specialist assessments for fire risk, asbestos, and legionella management, as required by the law, and arrange for them to be carried out when authority has been provided by the client.
We work closely with clients to budget for and implement risk assessment recommendations and communicate any important safety advice to the residents of the building.
To ensure peace of mind for both clients and residents, it is vital that safety equipment such as smoke detectors, fire alarms, sprinklers, fire extinguishers and emergency lighting (whichever are present in the building) are well maintained and a plan for regular servicing and testing by a professional contractor is place.
