EWS1 Form Update

You may have seen in the news that there have been questions raised around some EWS1 forms. EWS1 forms are used by mortgage lenders to confirm the compliance of external wall systems, including cladding. As a result of these questions, some mortgages are being refused by a few lenders. The Institution of Fire Engineers have provided a statement, which can be found at www.ife.org.uk/home/news/details/ife-issues-a-statement
We are writing to reassure residents that the cladding to your building is safe and meets the highest level of fire safety compliance. We are taking legal advice on what we can do next and will let you know as soon as we have more information.
If you have any questions or concerns or are in the process of selling or remortgaging your home, please call us on 0300 304 5000 or email info@estuary.co.uk.
