About Us
Professional Insight Backed by Real Experience
At Property Assessments for Landlords Services Ltd (PALS), we help landlords, business owners, and property managers across Cornwall meet their legal obligations and keep their properties safe, compliant, and fit for purpose.
With over 20 years of combined housing enforcement experience and the expertise of a qualified Environmental Health Officer, we specialise in delivering accredited Fire Risk Assessments and Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS) assessments. Our work is grounded in real-world enforcement knowledge, ensuring you get advice and reports that are practical, straightforward, and legally sound.
We believe compliance should be simple. Whether you’re a landlord needing an
HHSRS assessment for peace of mind, or a small business owner or holiday let
operator requiring a fire risk assessment in compliance with The Regulatory Reform
(Fire Safety) Order 2005, our goal is to protect you from costly enforcement while
helping you maintain safe, high-quality premises.
Stay Ahead of Compliance Changes
The Home Office has announced plans to introduce mandatory competence requirements for Fire Risk Assessors — making UKAS-accredited assessments the new legal standard and enhancing enforcement powers. Coupled with stricter HHSRS enforcement under the Renters (Reform) Act, these changes mean landlords and duty holders must be ready. Act now to avoid penalties and stay compliant.
