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 Pirbright
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 Pirbright
Pirbright is a rural village and civil parish in Surrey, England, situated between Woking and Guildford, roughly 27 miles southwest of central London and well connected via the A3 and local rail services (nearest main stations are Brookwood and Woking). The parish population is around 3,700–4,000 residents, giving it a small, close-knit community feel. The village is characterised by extensive common land, woodland, and open heath, much of it part of Pirbright Common and neighbouring army training land, which provides a strong sense of countryside and abundant walking routes while still being within commuting distance of London and the larger Surrey towns. The historic village green, with its duck pond, cricket pitch, and traditional cottages, forms the social heart of the area, with a local pub, village shops, a primary school, and a village hall supporting community life. Architecturally, Pirbright includes a number of notable period houses and farmsteads, many of them listed, as well as St Michael and All Angels Church, which dates back several centuries and anchors the village’s historical character. Safety and emergency coverage are generally good: the nearest fire station is in Woking (approximately 4–5 miles away), with additional coverage from Guildford, both operated by Surrey Fire and Rescue Service. Police services are provided by Surrey Police, with neighbourhood teams active across the Woking and Guildford districts. For healthcare, residents typically use GP surgeries in nearby Brookwood, Knaphill, or Woking, with larger medical centres and walk-in facilities in Woking and Guildford. The closest major hospitals are St Peter’s Hospital in Chertsey and the Royal Surrey County Hospital in Guildford, both around 8–10 miles away and providing full A&E and specialist services. Historically, Pirbright has links to agricultural and military activity, with nearby barracks and training grounds shaping land use and contributing to local employment and security presence. For someone moving in, key positives include the strong village identity, attractive countryside setting, relatively low crime levels, and good access to schools, shops, and healthcare in surrounding towns. New residents should familiarise themselves with designated footpaths on the commons, military training notices, local flood advice for low-lying areas, and standard rural safety practices such as careful night driving on unlit lanes and awareness of wildlife and livestock.
