Fire safety inWashington.
Washington is largely industrial for us: Armstrong, Crowther and Stephenson Industrial Estates, the retail at The Galleries, and the district housing villages in between.
What we do in Washington
Fire risk assessments
Warehousing and light manufacturing dominate here, which means process risk, storage and escape distances get the closest look. We assess single units and multi-tenant buildings alike.
- Full walk-round of the premises
- Photographed findings
- Prioritised action plan
- Review reminder each year
Extinguishers & equipment
Extinguisher surveys and annual servicing for Washington factories, warehouses and offices, sized to the actual risk rather than a rule of thumb.
- Free on-site survey
- Supply and installation
- Annual BS 5306-3 servicing
- Certificates for your logbook
Fire door inspections
Cross-corridor and plant room doors in industrial buildings are frequently propped or damaged. We check, record and prioritise every one.
- Gaps, seals and hinges
- Closers, latches and glazing
- Pass / fail schedule per door
- Written for your contractor
“Arrived on time, serviced everything on site and replaced the units that were out of date. Friendly and fairly priced.”
Washington fire safety questions
How quickly can you get to Washington?
Washington 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 Washington?
Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service is the enforcing authority for the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and Sunderland City 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.
