What should Fareham owners check first?

  • Odour control on the extraction is often a planning condition.
  • Wall finishes must be smooth, washable and non-absorbent in food areas.

In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control.
