Fire safety advice for landlords

Make sure your building is safe

If you're a private landlord or managing agent for a high rise block of flats, you should have received a letter reminding you about responsibilities for fire safety in your building.

We wrote the letter jointly with East Sussex Fire and Rescue Service and it includes a fire safety checklist (PDF 104KB) to help you make sure your building is safe.

If you're a resident in a high rise building, you should check your landlord is carrying out their responsibilities for fire safety.

If you haven't had a letter

If you didn't receive a letter and think you should have, you can ask for a new one by email at:
