Why has our inspection not been done sooner?
We have not yet been able to inspect all of our tall buildings owing firstly to the volume of these, but also because of a need to ensure that we are responding to the correct advice.
The government has made numerous changes to their building safety guidelines since they were first published, most recently in April 2020.
L&Q have already completed fire safety works on 18 of our blocks which had ACM cladding (the type used in Grenfell), and are undertaking inspections and carrying out remedial works to several other buildings where we have identified issues with safety since the new guidance was released.
