Fire Compartmentation
Fire Compartmentation
One of the best ways to mitigate the risk and impact of fire is to put in place the right kind and level of fire compartmentation. This involves sub-dividing a building into smaller units that will better withstand and limit damage from a fire as well as preventing its spread. Using fire resisting construction means taking fire into account from the offset, but we can do a lot these days to retro-fit older buildings with fire compartmentation. When preventing the spread of smoke and fire is your priority, we will support you in getting you exactly where you want to be.
Fire Risk Assessments
Fire Risk Assessments
As the Responsible Person for a business it’s your job to carry out and regularly review the fire risks associated with the building. Doing so informs you about what you should do to prevent fire and keep people safe. If the business employs 5 or more people, it’s essential to keep a written record of fire risk assessments. We have the time and expertise if you don’t. Our experts will carry out fire risk assessments on your behalf, acting as your professional risk assessor. It is vitally important to get it right, which is why our services are so popular with clients large and small.
