Residential buildings
Building compliance for blocks, higher risk buildings and HMOs.
Property software stores certificates; it does not check them. We keep every requirement across your portfolio current, verify each document as it arrives, and follow outstanding work through to completion.
The challenge
Records are stored, but rarely checked.
Managing agents, building owners and landlords are responsible for a growing list of fire, electrical, gas and water requirements, and for being able to evidence them. Property managers rarely have the time to read every certificate or chase every contractor.
For houses in multiple occupation, licence conditions add their own dates and penalties. We work inside the systems you already use and keep the record complete, consistent and ready to show.
What we look after
Every premises requirement, on one register.
- Fire safety
- Risk assessments and their actions, alarms, emergency lighting, fire doors and extinguishers.
- Electrical
- Fixed wiring inspections, remedial work and appliance testing where required.
- Gas
- Annual gas safety certificates and servicing for communal and landlord appliances.
- Water safety
- Legionella risk assessments and any monitoring they recommend.
- Lifts
- Thorough examinations and maintenance visits, with defects tracked.
- Asbestos
- Registers and reinspections for older buildings.
- Higher risk buildings
- Keeping the building’s safety information structured, current and versioned.
- HMO licensing
- Licence conditions, renewal dates and the evidence each council asks for.
How we handle it
The same four steps, for every item.
- 01
Inside your systems
We work in the property software you already have, so records stay in one place.
- 02
Access and booking
We arrange visits with your contractors and coordinate access with residents or site staff.
- 03
Certificates
Each document is read for dates, scope, results and the contractor’s accreditation.
- 04
Outstanding work
Remedial actions are tracked to closure, with evidence, across the whole portfolio.
In practice
What that looks like across a portfolio
A gas certificate arrives for one of your HMOs listing two appliances; the property has three. We query it with the engineer the same day and hold the item open until a corrected certificate is issued. The licence renewal three months away is already in the calendar, with the documents the council will ask for.
We do not carry out inspections, surveys or repairs, and we do not certify that a building is safe. Legal responsibility remains with the owner, landlord or accountable person.
