  1. Hi. I found this thread really interesting so thanks for all the info. But I wanted to see if I could get some feedback on my own current situation. last year we bought a ground floor flat in a 1850s building that was renovated to the current 5 flats in the 60s. The two ground flats are owned under leasehold and the above 3 flats are owned and rented out by the person who owns the freehold. Since we have moved in we have been suspicious about the level of insulation of any kind between the floors. Can hear all the movement and even the gent up stairs snoring in the dining room! recently the management company has instructed a fire risk assessment and it’s highlights some issues. Chiefly that the eves is a uncompartmented zone between the three top flats. Speaking with the assessor he mention that it wasn’t an intrusive assessment but suspected that there is little between the floor for fire protection. Given that the property where renovated in the 60s is there any regulations that now apply to ensure adequate protection? My sons room is directly below the up stairs kitchen so a little concerned! i have asked for evidence from the management company of fire proofing between the floors but I am not sure where we would stand on this if there’s nothing. cheers,
