Next customer meeting

Thank you to everyone who joined our last meeting.

We’ll be holding a handover meeting from the Major Fire Projects team to the Neighbourhoods team on Wednesday 20 August at 5.30pm on Zoom. Our Estate Services team will also be present. 

Reminders will be sent closer to the date.

EWS1 certificate

We’re pleased to confirm that the EWS1 certificates for both Temple House and Embankment House, with B1 rating have been issued, following the completion of our fire safety remediation work.  

We’ve sent the form to all leaseholders whose email addresses we have on file.

We’re providing these to you now for future use should you look to sell or remortgage, as this is something that mortgage lenders may ask for.

If you don’t think we have your email on file or have any queries about the EWS1 certificate, please email us at [email protected].

You can also download the cover letter and form on our website.

The site will be cleared, cleaned and decanted by early August 2025.

If you have any questions about the remediation project, please email Bouygues’ RLO, Lisa, at [email protected].

For urgent enquiries, please call Lisa on 07917 199336.
