How we approach fire safety maintenance in Washington

Commercial property in Washington includes business parks and small office units, managed residential blocks and HMOs and industrial estates and trade counters. Each has different hours, plant and statutory duties, so the scope is set after we have walked the site.

For Washington buildings, fire door defects are one of the most common findings, so inspections are photographed and remedials priced on the spot.

What fire safety maintenance covers

Fire safety maintenance keeps a building's fire protection working: fire alarm servicing, emergency lighting tests, extinguisher servicing, fire door inspections and the logbook that records it all. It supports the responsible person's duties under fire safety law.
