Why The City Requires Commercial Fire Safety Specialists
The City of London packs more commercial floor space into its Square Mile than anywhere else in Britain. From the towering headquarters of global banks around Bank and Liverpool Street to the heritage buildings around St Paul’s Cathedral, the diversity of building types demands assessors with genuine commercial property expertise. High-rise offices, trading floors operating 24/7, basement data centres, and multi-tenanted buildings all present distinct fire safety challenges.
The Building Safety Act 2022 has introduced enhanced requirements for tall buildings, and the City has many of them. Our assessors understand the specific obligations for buildings over 18 metres, including the need for building safety cases, gateway approvals, and the Accountable Person regime. We also have extensive experience with the complex fire strategies required for modern commercial towers with their sophisticated detection, suppression, and evacuation systems.
Many City buildings operate around the clock. Trading floors, data centres, and global operations that never sleep require fire safety assessments conducted with minimal disruption. We offer flexible scheduling including weekends and out-of-hours appointments to work around your business-critical operations.
