Unafraid to tell it how we see it....HAALO asks the fundamental question "Who is the Accountable Person?" Could it really be the mild-mannered Janitor? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

In this episode we take a caustic look at the "Fifth Facade". Wondering how the industry can spend £billions remediating combustible materials across the facades of high rise residential buildings and ignore what is on the roof?

S1 Ep3: Aside from the dodgy 'Hank Williams' title, we take a look at the firery topic of how developers often game the system by exploiting lack of official guidance on how far a kitchen hob should be from the escape route in an open plan apartment. The worse 'game' we have ever assessed was when one developer actually placed the cooker on the escape route and then tried to justify that the fire would be at hip height so people could crawl by the burning cooker. Not so great if you are trying to

S1 Ep2: Boldly tackling head-on controversial topics in the construction and real estate industries, HAALO takes on the topic that is polarising our sector.
