The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order, which came into effect in 2006, stipulates that the owners of almost all commercial buildings carry out a Fire Risk Assessment on a regular basis. It also requires that an assessment is carried out whenever any significant changes are made to a building.

Our fire-safety compliance services include:

• fire safety audits and fire risk assessments for existing premises
• advice on changes required as a result of proposed building or space planning alterations
• reports detailing issues in new premises (as an independent design review service, or as part of a pre-acquisition survey)
• reviews of designs for proposed construction to ensure early compliance
