Hi, I am a leaseholder of council flat and recently got letter from the council that I need to upgrade my front fire door as they saying that my current old front (internal) door is not compiled with 2005 fire regulations.

They gave me chance to do the job with their contractor who will start installing fire doors with other council tenants. I contacted the contractor for a quote, but they came back with a price of £4,500, which I find extremely high and unaffordable.

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do in this situation?

Thank you,

Anjan
