Fire Safety Condition Surveys

Fire Safety Condition Surveys

Fire Safety Condition Surveys are the most effective method of understanding and overview of your buildings active and passive fire protections.

Our Fire Safety Surveys provide a practical overview of all of your buildings fire safety features. Including a clear snapshot of current protection measures and the condition of critical systems, each survey highlights compliance gaps, prioritises remedial actions, and explains why certain upgrades may be required under current legislation. We assess how people use the building day to day, identify areas where evacuation routes could be improved, and offer straightforward recommendations that balance safety, cost, and operational practicality. By benchmarking performance against recognised standards, our team helps you plan maintenance and investment with confidence, reducing risk while supporting business continuity. Whether you manage a single site or a complex estate, our approach ensures consistency, transparent reporting, and actionable next steps that your facilities and compliance teams can implement without delay. We also provide guidance on record keeping and routine checks so that improvements are sustained over time, giving duty holders clear evidence of due diligence and a defensible audit trail should regulators request documentation.

Fire Doors, Fire Compartmentation, Smoke Ventilation Systems, Sprinklers, Maintenance Documentation, Fire Dampers, Fire Alarm Systems, Emergency Lighting, Signage, Evacuation Plans are all examined as part of our fire safety surveys to ensure they function as an integrated life-safety strategy rather than as isolated components. We look at door ratings and hardware, confirm that compartment lines are continuous at walls and soffits, and check penetrations, dampers, and seals for integrity. For detection and alarm, we review coverage, cause-and-effect, and maintenance records, while lighting, signage, and wayfinding are assessed for visibility during power loss and smoke conditions. Where sprinklers or smoke control are present, we verify design intent, test arrangements, and inspection frequencies. Our reports translate technical findings into plain language, assigning risk ratings and timeframes for remedial works, so responsible persons can plan budgets and demonstrate ongoing compliance. This comprehensive approach supports safer evacuations, minimises business disruption, and creates a robust foundation for any subsequent fire safety audit that may be required by insurers or enforcing authorities.
