Planning maintenance in occupied residential buildings

For an occupied block, access to the lift, resident communication and protection of shared finishes all belong in the maintenance brief. If the building has only one passenger lift, explain who relies on it and how planned downtime will be communicated.

Prepare your site brief

  • Confirm whether the lift is the only step-free route to residents' homes.
  • Share restrictions on access, noise and movement of tools through common parts.
  • Identify older controls or door equipment that need review during the survey.
  • Agree who authorises additional repairs and receives the visit reports.

Changing maintenance company?

Share the current contract, notice and renewal dates, lift history and latest examination reports. We can review the equipment and agree a proposed handover, including any repairs that need separate approval.

For several buildings or different lift makes, identify each unit separately so the maintenance scope and records stay clear.

Kensington and Chelsea lift maintenance questions

Scope, servicing and practical next steps for your building.

Do you provide lift maintenance in Kensington and Chelsea?

Yes. Durant Lifts provides planned maintenance and repairs across Kensington and Chelsea, including Kensington, Chelsea, South Kensington and Notting Hill. The schedule and cover are agreed for the equipment at your site.

Can you take over from our existing maintenance company?

We can survey the lifts, review their history and propose a handover. Share the current contract, renewal and notice dates, outstanding repairs and examination reports before a start date is agreed.

What should we include in a Kensington and Chelsea maintenance enquiry?

Confirm whether the lift is the only step-free route to residents' homes. Share restrictions on access, noise and movement of tools through common parts. Include the site postcode, lift make and current service records.

Can you maintain lifts from different manufacturers?

We support mixed-brand buildings and portfolios. Send each lift's make, controller and type so we can confirm the technical scope, parts requirements and access arrangements.

Does routine servicing replace a LOLER thorough examination?

No. Routine maintenance and statutory thorough examination are separate activities. We can help with examination access, maintenance records and remedial work. The duty holder should agree examination requirements with a competent examiner.
