North Shields fire safety questions

How quickly can you get to North Shields?

North Shields is well within our usual working patch, so most jobs are booked within a few days and urgent work often the same week. Evening and weekend appointments are available if daytime access is difficult.

Who enforces fire safety in North Shields?

Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service is the enforcing authority for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and North Tyneside Council handles housing and HMO licensing standards. Our reports are written so they satisfy both.

Do you do the remedial work as well?

No. We inspect, assess and report. We don't fit doors or carry out building work, so nothing in your report is there to sell you something. We're happy to explain the findings to whoever does the work.

What does it cost?

Price depends on the size and type of the premises. Tell us what and where the building is and we'll give you a fixed price before we visit. No charge for the quote.
