Managing a residential block in London involves more than just cleaning communal areas or collecting service charges. It requires a detailed understanding of legal obligations, maintenance schedules, leasehold compliance, budgeting, and resident communications. Whether you’re a freeholder, developer, or part of a residents' management company (RMC), choosing the right block management company in London is essential to protecting property value and ensuring peace of mind.
Fraser Bond offers tailored block management services across London — combining local market expertise, legal proficiency, and transparent service delivery for residential and mixed-use developments of all sizes.
Also known as residential estate or property managers, block management companies are responsible for overseeing:
Day-to-day operations of communal areas
Financial and service charge management
Maintenance and contractor coordination
Health and safety compliance
Lease enforcement and resident communication
They act on behalf of freeholders, developers, RMCs, and Right to Manage (RTM) companies, ensuring buildings are maintained legally, safely, and professionally.
London blocks must meet strict safety and regulatory standards, including:
Fire Risk Assessments (FRAs)
Asbestos reports
Lift servicing
Health & safety audits under the Landlord and Tenant Act and Building Safety Act
A well-managed building with low arrears, clean common areas, and proactive maintenance retains and increases property value — and attracts better tenants and buyers.
Professional block managers take the administrative and legal burden off directors, leaseholders, and developers so they can focus on ownership rather than operations.
