Services
PAT Testing
Portable Appliance Testing ensures electrical equipment safety and compliance with UK regulations. We test and certify all portable devices, identifying faults to reduce fire risks and insurance liabilities. Businesses in high-risk sectors benefit from our rapid, minimally disruptive inspections.
EICR Reports
Electrical Installation Condition Reports assess fixed wiring safety and compliance with BS 7671 standards. We identify defects, overloaded circuits, and fire hazards in commercial and industrial properties. Our reports meet legal requirements under the Electricity at Work Regulations 1989.
Fire Alarms
Fire alarm system design, installation, and maintenance services ensure compliance with BS 5839-1. We service all system types, from manual call points to addressable networks, guaranteeing reliable operation and adherence to Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Emergency Lighting
Emergency lighting risk assessments and servicing maintain compliance with BS 5266-1. We test battery backups, illumination levels, and signage to ensure safe evacuation during power failures. Regular maintenance prevents legal penalties and safety breaches.
Fire Risk Assessments
Comprehensive fire risk assessments identify hazards and mitigation measures in line with Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. We evaluate escape routes, fire detection systems, and staff training requirements to protect occupants and property.
