Whether you manage a commercial premises, a residential block, a community venue, or a mixed-use building, you have a legal duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 to maintain a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment and ensure your life safety systems are properly serviced.

As proud Members of the Institute of Fire Safety Managers (IFSM) and the UK Fire Association, we follow the highest standards of competency and professionalism in all our work.

Fire Risk Assessments in Ewhurst

A fire risk assessment is the foundation of any compliant fire safety strategy. It identifies hazards, evaluates the risk to occupants, and outlines the steps required to reduce risks and protect people. Our qualified fire risk assessors provide detailed, fully documented assessments for:

• Offices and commercial buildings

• Industrial units, warehouses and workshops

• Retail premises and hospitality venues

• HMOs and residential blocks

• Schools, churches and community buildings

Each assessment includes a clear action plan, prioritised recommendations, and photographic evidence. You’ll receive a professional, easy-to-understand report that helps you meet your legal obligations and maintain a safe environment for all building users.

Fire Strategy Plans & Fire Safety Documentation

For more complex or higher-risk buildings, a fire strategy plan is essential. It explains how fire safety measures work together and provides guidance for building operations, contractors and responsible persons. Our fire strategy documentation covers:

• Means of escape

• Evacuation strategy and occupancy loads

• Fire-resistant construction and compartmentation

• Sitings and suitability of fire protection systems

• Management procedures and responsible person duties

Whether you are refurbishing, extending or changing the use of your premises, we can prepare new fire strategy plans or update existing documentation in line with modern standards.

Local Area around Ewhurst

Ewhurst is a rural village and civil parish in the borough of Waverley, in the east of Surrey, lying at the foot of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. With a population of around 2,500–3,000 including the surrounding hamlets, it has a strong village community while remaining within practical reach of larger centres such as Cranleigh (about 3 miles west) and Guildford (around 10–11 miles northwest). The landscape is one of Ewhurst’s greatest attractions: it is surrounded by rolling countryside, woodland, and farmland, with easy access to a dense network of public footpaths and bridleways, including routes onto the Greensand Way and nearby Pitch Hill, renowned for its expansive views across the Weald. The village itself has a traditional green, a well-regarded primary school, a parish church (St Peter and St Paul) with medieval origins, and a small selection of local services including a village shop, pub, and community facilities such as a village hall and recreation ground. Historically, Ewhurst grew as an agricultural settlement, later influenced by nearby brickmaking and the development of country estates; several historic houses and farmsteads, some listed, are scattered throughout the parish, contributing to its character and conservation value. For healthcare, day-to-day medical needs are typically met in nearby Cranleigh, which has GP surgeries and the Cranleigh Medical Practice; more extensive services, including accident and emergency, are available at Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford and East Surrey Hospital in Redhill, both reachable by car in roughly 30–40 minutes depending on traffic. Fire and rescue cover is usually provided by nearby stations at Cranleigh and Guildford, with Surrey Fire and Rescue Service coordinating emergency response across the wider area. Crime levels are generally low compared with urban centres, though normal rural precautions apply, especially for outbuildings and vehicles. Road access is via local B-roads linking to the A281 and A25, and while public transport is limited, nearby stations at Guildford, Gomshall, and Horsham offer rail services to London and regional hubs. For someone moving in, Ewhurst offers a combination of scenic countryside, village life, access to good schools and healthcare, and a relatively safe, community-focused environment.
