Is smoking or vaping allowed inside apartments or communal areas?

Smoking & vaping are not permitted inside our apartments or enclosed communal areas. This includes corridors, lifts, internal lounges, co-working spaces & gyms.

Outdoor arrangements depend on the development. Do not assume that smoking is allowed on a balcony, roof terrace or outside an entrance; follow the signs & resident guidance for your building.

Looking after shared spaces

• Keep entrances, walkways & communal areas free from smoke & litter.
• Do not throw cigarette ends or other items from windows or balconies.
• Respect neighbouring apartments when using outdoor space.
• Never tamper with detectors, alarms or fire safety equipment.
• Follow any restrictions around barbecues, flames or other fire risks.

For example, Westferry Wharf has designated BBQ & pizza-oven facilities. These do not mean residents can use personal barbecues or open flames elsewhere.

Any cleaning or damage issues will be dealt with fairly under your tenancy terms. If you are unsure about a particular outdoor area, consult your resident guide before using it.
