## HMO Fire Alarms in Maindee: the short answer

Maindee HMOs generally require a Grade A LD2 system at three storeys and a Grade D LD2 interlinked system at two storeys, both to BS 5839-6. AS Fire Services confirms the grade at survey against Newport City Council licence conditions, then installs, commissions and certificates the system.

## What does Newport City Council expect from an HMO fire alarm?

Licence conditions in Newport follow BS 5839-6 and the LACORS fire safety guidance: automatic detection covering escape routes and sleeping rooms, heat detection in kitchens, a system grade matched to the number of storeys and occupants, and documentary evidence that the system was designed, installed and commissioned by a competent person. Officers also look for an ongoing servicing record. We supply all of it as one pack rather than leaving you to assemble it from invoices.

## Are Maindee terraces different to work in?

Maindee's stock is largely two and three storey bay-fronted terraces off Chepstow Road and Corporation Road, many with rear extensions and converted attic rooms. Attic conversions are the recurring issue: an added third storey changes the escape strategy and usually pushes a Grade D property up to Grade A, which landlords are rarely told when they buy. We check storey count and room use against the licence at survey so the grade is right before any money is spent.

## How soon can you attend a Maindee property?

Newport sits on our daily Gwent route from Bargoed, so survey visits are usually straightforward to arrange and reactive call-outs are attended promptly, with 24/7 cover for faults. We confirm the survey date when you enquire and return a written quote the same day the survey is done, including the certification you will receive.

## Can you combine the alarm with EICR and emergency lighting?

Yes, and for a licence renewal it is usually the sensible route. One visit can cover the fire alarm work, an EICR to BS 7671 for the fixed wiring, emergency lighting testing to BS 5266 in the escape route, and PAT testing on landlord-supplied appliances. You get a single set of dated certificates that match, which is far easier for the council than paperwork gathered from three contractors over eighteen months.

Standards we work to 

## Which standards apply to a Maindee property?

-   **BS 5839-1 and BS 5839-6**, fire detection and alarm systems for commercial buildings and for domestic premises including HMOs. Published by [BSI](https://www.bsigroup.com/en-GB/). 
-   **The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005**, which places duties on the responsible person for non-domestic premises and common parts. Read the order on [legislation.gov.uk](https://www.legislation.gov.uk/uksi/2005/1541/contents/made). 
-   **HMO licensing requirements**, set locally by the council. Check the national overview on [GOV.UK](https://www.gov.uk/house-in-multiple-occupation-licence). 
-   **BS 5266** for emergency lighting and **BS 7671** for the fixed electrical installation, both commonly required alongside the alarm at licensing. 

### Covering Maindee from Bargoed

Newport is 30 minutes from Bargoed via the A467/M4. Our engineers run a planned route across Newport and the surrounding postcodes, with 24/7 cover for faults and unwanted activations.

FAQs 

## HMO Fire Alarms in Maindee: common questions

Does a three-storey Maindee HMO always need Grade A?

In most cases yes. BS 5839-6 and LACORS guidance point to Grade A LD2 for three-storey shared houses, and Newport City Council licence conditions normally reflect that.

Do you certify systems for licence renewals only?

We can inspect and certify an existing system, but only report what it actually is. If it falls short of the licence conditions we quote the remedial work rather than sign it off.

How often does a Maindee HMO alarm need servicing?

At least annually for Grade A systems under BS 5839-6, with six-monthly common in licensed HMOs. Weekly user testing should be logged between visits.

Do you cover the rest of Newport?

Yes, including Maindee, Pill, Stow Hill, Caerleon, Rogerstone and the city centre.
