Working in East Grinstead

East Grinstead's High Street is known for its long run of timber-framed buildings, some dating back to the 14th century. In timber-framed properties fire can spread through concealed voids and between neighbouring buildings, so the fire risk assessment needs to look beyond the shop floor to what's above, behind and next door.

We carry out fire risk assessments to the PAS 79 methodology and give you a full written report with clear, proportionate recommendations.

Beyond the High Street, we supply and service extinguishers for offices, shops and industrial units around the town, with a free survey and a clear quote before any work is agreed.

Common questions

East Grinstead fire safety FAQs

My premises are in a timber-framed building. What should I be aware of?

Fire can travel unseen through the voids in a timber frame and into adjoining properties, and escape routes are often narrow. Good housekeeping, well-maintained electrics, working detection and the right extinguishers all matter more than usual. A fire risk assessment will look at the building as a whole, not just the part you trade from.

How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?

There's no fixed interval in law, but it must be kept up to date. Review it regularly, and whenever there's a significant change — to the building, how it's used or who uses it.
