Fire Risk & Compliance

Understand the risks. Prioritise the work. Protect the people who use your building.

Vesta Group provides fire risk assessments, specialist surveys and practical compliance support for commercial properties, residential buildings and managed estates across the South West.

We help building owners, landlords, managing agents and businesses understand what needs attention, decide what happens next and arrange the work required. From an initial assessment to fire door repairs and firestopping, our approach connects clear reporting with practical delivery.

Our Fire Risk & Compliance Services

01

Fire Risk Assessments

A fire risk assessment considers fire hazards, the people who may be affected and the measures needed to reduce risk. It should address matters such as escape routes, fire precautions, emergency arrangements and the needs of vulnerable occupants.

We provide assessments suited to the premises, how they are used and the people using them. Our reports explain the findings and recommended actions in clear language, helping you understand what needs attention and why.

Where a concern requires a separate specialist survey or further investigation, we make that clear rather than treating an uninspected area as satisfactory.

03

Compartmentation & Firestopping Surveys

We investigate the condition of accessible fire-resisting construction, including walls, floors, service penetrations, risers and ceiling or roof voids within the agreed scope.

Our surveys identify visible gaps, damaged materials, unsealed openings and installations requiring further investigation. Findings are recorded with locations and photographs to help inform the next stage of work.

Where concealed areas need opening up, we agree the extent of investigation beforehand and clearly record any access limitations.

05

Action Plans & Ongoing Compliance Support

We help organise assessment findings and survey recommendations into a practical action plan, with clear priorities, responsibilities and progress records.

Support can include coordinating further surveys, planning remedial works, tracking outstanding items and identifying when follow-up checks are needed.

For clients managing several properties, we can help organise the work building by building, making it easier to see what has been completed and what still requires attention.

02

Fire Door Surveys & Inspections

Fire doors need to remain in good working order. Damage, alterations and defective components can affect their ability to restrict the spread of fire and smoke.

We inspect fire doors and record issues affecting the door leaf, frame, gaps, seals, hinges, closers, glazing and associated ironmongery, as relevant to the agreed survey.

Our findings help you distinguish between maintenance, suitable repairs and doors requiring replacement or further assessment. The aim is a justified scope of work—not unnecessary replacement by default.

04

Fire Safety Remedial Works

Once the required works have been established, we can help move the project from recommendations to delivery.

Our remedial services include fire door repairs and replacement, firestopping to service penetrations, fire-rated boarding and appropriate fire barrier works.

We prepare a defined scope and quotation, explain any survey assumptions and plan access around the building’s use. Where a detail needs specialist design or additional evidence before work proceeds, we identify that requirement.

06

Fire Safety Records & Handover Information

For premises covered by the Fire Safety Order, Responsible Persons must record their fire risk assessment in full and document their fire safety arrangements.

We provide records relating to our agreed services, which may include assessment reports, inspection findings, photographs, remedial schedules, product information and applicable installation certification.

The handover should explain what was inspected or completed, the scope of the work and any remaining limitations or outstanding actions.
