It is UK legislation that all lifts and boilers in blocks of flats are inspected periodically by independent companies. Passenger Lifts must be inspected twice per year and Boilers must be inspected once a year.

Christopher Trigg can provide this service as an extension to our policy and, in addition to the statutory inspection; we also provide insurance cover for sudden and unforeseen damage. You would still need a maintenance contract for your lifts and boilers. The insurance cover provided does not include routine maintenance or wear and tear.

The statutory inspections can be arranged by your maintenance company but they are not normally able to offer insurance cover. Most blocks of flats / apartments, therefore, arrange this through their insurance company or insurance broker. However, we can only provide the insurance cover for sudden and unforeseen damage where we also arrange the statutory inspection.

As part of the statutory inspection service a site log would be kept at a pre-agreed location (normally the plant room or the top of a lift shaft) and you would be issued with reports after each inspection. These would identify any immediate actions required to maintain safety, items that would need to be considered by the maintenance company in their routine servicing as well as any long term / non-urgent recommendations.
