No clipboard theatre. We walk the building with you, ask awkward questions, and leave you knowing where you stand.
What the building is, what it is used for, how many floors, whether anyone sleeps there. That is enough to fix a price and book a slot.
Escape routes, doors, detection, emergency lighting, signage, extinguishers, electrics, heating, storage and housekeeping. We photograph as we go.
Who is here at night. Who would help a wheelchair user out. When the alarm was last tested and who tested it. This is where most of the real findings come from.
Within five working days, recorded in full as the law requires, with a numbered and prioritised action list.
None of this is essential. It just makes the visit quicker and the report better.
No. We are not the enforcing authority. Our job is to find the problems before Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service does, and to give you a workable order to fix them in.
If something is genuinely dangerous we will tell you on the day rather than let you read about it a week later. That has happened perhaps a handful of times, and every one of them was a blocked or locked escape route.
Tell us the building and we will give you a price on the phone. Most assessments are booked within the week.
