I am replacing roller blinds in a stately home. They requested Scottish Holland Fabric. I have replaced three in the private area of the house.
Now they require them in the public areas and I have discovered that this fabric cannot be treated for FR. This fabric is used in all National Trust properties due to the environmental benefits. This property is, however, privately owned. How do I deal with this in respect of my legal responsibility, and if the owners insist on this fabric being used.
I was also told, recently, that the Fire Regs in commercial and public premises are guidelines and not actually legally required as they are in the home.
Any Clarification would be appreciated.
