As 4site marks 20 years of supporting the property industry, it feels like the right time to look back at how much the building safety landscape has changed since we began in 2006. A lot can happen in two decades, and building safety in the UK has undergone a fundamental shift.
This Asbestos FAQ guide for Property Managers answers common questions about asbestos registers, re-inspections, contractor access, encapsulation, removal and management plans. It is designed to help you understand the next steps after asbestos has been identified, so you can keep records up to date, support safe maintenance works and manage asbestos risks in a clear, compliant and proportionate way.
Many fire safety measures are visible to residents and building managers, but some of the most important protections are hidden within the structure of the building itself. Fire compartmentation is designed to contain smoke and fire within defined areas, helping to reduce risk, protect means of escape, and support emergency response.
The Fire Safety (Residential Evacuation Plans) (England) Regulations 2025 come into place from April 6th this year, so it’s important that property managers understand what their responsibilities will be. This article explains what Residential PEEPs are, who they’re for and how property professionals can approach them practically and proportionately.
The Building Safety Regulator (BSR) has officially become a standalone organisation, paving the way for the creation of a single regulator for the industry.
This Blue Monday, we at 4site are conscious of the unique challenges that our clients face in their day-to-day work. With countless responsibilities fighting for attention, it’s not uncommon to go through intense periods of admin management, back-to-back residents’ meetings, extended periods of lone working and often skipping necessary breaks to tackle a perpetually growing 'to-do' list.
The British Standards Institution (BSI) has published its Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) in housing standard, BS 9792. This standard clarifies the necessary frequency of reviewing and renewing for FRAs, depending on different risk ratings.
