For City of London leaseholders, freeholders and managing agents, the practical question is usually how the building moves from PAS 9980 evidence to a fundable scope of works. We link the local remediation brief back to Cladding Remediation London, Cladding Safety Scheme and Building Safety Fund support, and FRAEW / PAS 9980 so CSS or BSF evidence, specification, tender control and leaseholder communication stay aligned.
Cladding remediation FAQs for City of London
Is my City of London building eligible for CSS or BSF funding?
Since 1 September 2025, new applications for government cladding remediation funding for eligible buildings over 11 metres in England, including London, go through the Cladding Safety Scheme (CSS), administered by Homes England. This includes eligible buildings between 11 and 18 metres; height alone does not establish eligibility. Detailed applicant, building, tenure, lease, works-timing and funding criteria apply; Homes England decides eligibility. Check the current CSS guidance and the CSS/BSF transition guidance for the route that applies to an existing application.
What does the cladding remediation process involve in City of London?
The process begins with a FRAEW assessment under PAS 9980:2026 to identify the scope of remediation required. We then prepare funding applications, develop remediation specifications, manage the procurement of specialist contractors and administer the construction contract through to completion and sign-off.
How long does cladding remediation take for a City of London building?
Timelines vary depending on building height, complexity and the funding route. A typical CSS-funded project takes 12 to 24 months from application to completion of works. BSF-funded projects may be shorter where funding is already approved. We provide realistic programme estimates at the outset and manage the process to minimise delays.
Do leaseholders in City of London have to pay for cladding remediation?
Who funds the work depends on the building, the responsible parties and the applicable funding or legal route. Homes England will not fund work where a developer has agreed under the Developer Remediation Contract to remediate the building or pay for the remediation. Eligibility and funding decisions sit with the scheme bodies, and we do not guarantee a funding outcome.
