Fire Risk Assessments in West Clandon

• 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:
