Checked over 7800 smoke detectors and over 5,600 CO2 detectors
Carried out over 482 fire risk assessments and began rolling out a 4-year project of
compartmentation surveys and upgrades to our blocks of flats. Compartmentation means the many physical ways buildings are designed to stop flames, smoke and heat spreading from one part to another.
Safety inspected and serviced over 4,500 gas boilers, tested all carbon monoxide detectors and carried out around 251 electrical safety inspections.
Completed electrical and emergency lighting upgrades to 78 communal areas and electrical upgrades to 907 homes. 387 empty properties have also had their electrics updated in preparation for being let.
Conducted 6-monthly safety inspections to over 200 passenger lifts, hoists and stair lifts and tested the smoke alarms in every property.
Carried out asbestos re-inspections in over 400 communal areas and ensured every home with asbestos has had an asbestos survey completed.
Where accessing properties have become problematic, appropriate legal steps have been taken.
Ensured that just under 1,800 communal footpaths have been risk assessed and are periodically re-inspected.
