A landlord has reported concerns regarding a fire risk assessment carried out at a terraced property in North London. The property consists of two self-contained flats: the ground floor flat has two bedrooms, while the first floor flat has three bedrooms, including a loft conversion.
The landlord commissioned a London-based fire risk assessor to evaluate the communal area of the property. According to the report, the ground floor tenants were not present during the assessment.
This situation highlights potential challenges for letting agents and inventory clerks when arranging access for essential safety inspections in multi-occupancy properties. Ensuring all areas are accessible and tenants are informed can be crucial for comprehensive fire risk assessments.
