Gas safety check

24-05-2022, 23:51 PM

Hi all,

I am looking for some advice on my latest gas safety check.

The report me mentions the Protective equipotential bonding is not satisfactory. The gas installation pipe fitted in your premises does not appear to be cross-bonded to the electrical installation.

However the appliances have been confirmed as safe to use.

Is my gas safe check still valid?

Thanks!

As long as it's just a note, you're fine.
There are things that aren't ideal, but they're safe.

When I post, I am expressing an opinion - feel free to disagree, I have been wrong before.
Please don't act on my suggestions without checking with a grown-up (ideally some kind of expert).

I hope you have sacked the agent! I would do it without notice on grounds of misconduct.

Hello, I was wondering if there is a templated letter available that I could use to send leaseholders in our building asking them to ensure their doors which lead onto the communal area meet fire regs?

I live in a share of freehold house and we self manage.

In spite of the grenfell disaster it does not seem easier to get leaseholders to put in fire doors.
The local authority used to have fire officers but the new system is vague and seems to depend on the terms of the lease and who owns the front doors.
We even have some upvc front doors which...

Oh we had this in our building a few years ago.

The Fire Risk Assessment said all of the individual Flat Doors onto the communal staircase should be fire doors.

One of the leaseholders said "why should I incur expense for a fire door, when the risk of fire in my flat...

We got a second sparks to do the inspection and he reported the wiring is good for another 20-30 years and it only needs a consumer unilt. He is coming to do the work next week and the T is happy for it to go ahead.

Thanks for all who contributed.

Tenants won't comply with Fire Risk Assessment

by London65

Feedback or guidance appreciated. I am the resident owner of a flat in a building comprising of five flats. Three of the flats are let out with two of the flats totally disregarding a December 2021 fire risk assessment. The FRA made it clear no personal items like shoes – for which there are many...

The five leaseholders are joint freeholders. In other words, we all have a 20% share each in the freehold. By law, you can only have four trustees maximum. So one leaseholder is not a trustee. Hope that makes sense.
