JTA Fire Values? Compliance & Best Practice
By law, every non-domestic building or shared residential block must have an up-to-date FRA. The “Responsible Person” (owner, landlord or manager) must ensure it’s done and reviewed regularly. Failure can bring enforcement notices, heavy fines or even prosecution. JTA Fire’s service helps you avoid these risks by addressing hazards proactively. We also stay current with new requirements (e.g. Fire Safety Act 2021, tall-building rules, smoke/carbon monoxide alarm regs) and incorporate them into our assessments. Our reports act as a legal record: you get documented evidence of due diligence that insurers and authorities will accept.
