FAQs
Fire & Smoke Alarms in Lewes: FAQs
Do you provide fire & smoke alarms across all of Lewes?
Yes, we cover the BN7 postcode area in full, including Cliffe, Southover, Landport, Nevill, Malling, Wallands.
What are landlords legally required to have?
In England, landlords must have at least one working smoke alarm on every storey of a rental property, and a carbon monoxide alarm in any room with a fuel-burning appliance such as a boiler or gas fire. We install to meet these requirements and can advise on the current regulations for your property.
How does South Downs National Park status affect building work in Lewes?
Development within the National Park is assessed with particular regard to landscape character and setting, alongside normal planning policy. Combined with the town's conservation area and listed building status, this means early advice is particularly valuable in Lewes.
