Can you work around tenants or staff in Bournemouth?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.

No. Many blocks avoid letterplates altogether. Where one is wanted, it must be fire-rated and tested in that doorset.
