WSL Services Ltd installs and replaces external wall cladding systems for residential and commercial buildings, working to EWS1 and Building Safety Act requirements.
The Challenge
In the wake of the Grenfell Tower fire, external wall cladding has become one of the most closely scrutinised elements of building safety. Building owners face legal obligations to ensure cladding systems meet current safety standards, and lenders and insurers increasingly require EWS1 certification before transactions can proceed.
Who We Work With
- Residential building owners and freeholders
- Housing associations and local authorities with high-rise stock
- Developers constructing new residential buildings
- Property management companies managing affected buildings
- Building safety managers under the Building Safety Act 2022
Standards & Compliance
All cladding installations comply with Building Regulations Approved Document B (volume 2), BS EN 13501 fire classification, and the requirements of the Building Safety Act 2022. We work with EWS1 assessors to ensure all installations meet current requirements.
Our Process

We carry out a detailed assessment of the existing cladding system, identifying the materials present and their fire risk rating.
EWS1 Coordination
We coordinate with a qualified EWS1 assessor and provide all technical information required for the assessment.
