Less than one in five BTL landlords have contacted with their tenants regarding basic fire safety precautions since the Grenfell Tower tragedy, according to a fresh report by Mcilroy Smith.
The research, released by the property consultancy in the run-up to Fire Door Safety Week – from September 24 to 30, found that a quarter of people feel more anxious about living in a flat since the fire in London last year.
About half of those living in a flat do not feel fully prepared on what to do in the event of a fire in their building, which suggests that greater safety awareness is necessary.
