  1. Yes just like in an office. There may be something else in between, I'm not too sure, but when we laid a new floor (laminate over floor boards) they said that bits were dropping onto their cieling, thats the main reason I dont think theres any barrier. The noise is pretty clear when they're open and the smell is present as soon as they start cooking. I don't think there's really any sort of barrier. If they were to do a refurbishment would it be subject to modern building regs, so would they need to compartmentalize in those circumstances?
  2. Hi Buildhub members, I'm hoping you can help me. I live in a flat above a chip shop (originally bought from the owners of the chip shop) and I'm trying to find out what the fire safety regulations are for having a fire boundary between a commercial property like this and a residential one? Currently they have poorly fitting polystyrene ceiling tiles then I think it's just joists then our floor. To me it seems like legally there should have to be a fire barrier like you'd have in a party wall? Does anyone know what the regulations say about this and which regulations I should be looking for? Doesn't seem that safe to me. Thanks for any help you can give. Tim
