Fire Safety Consultancy
Specialist fire safety advice with a building surveying perspective. When you need to understand a problem, weigh your options and make a confident decision, we give you clear, proportionate guidance you can rely on.
Specialist fire safety advice when you need it
Fire safety consultancy is for the times when a standard report is not enough: enforcement action, insurer requirements, or when you need a competent, independent view. We give responsible persons, landlords, managing agents and businesses clear, proportionate advice they can act on, with a building surveying perspective.
When you might need a fire safety consultant
You might bring us in to make sense of a fire risk assessment and its action plan, to advise on a building project or change of use, to prepare for an inspection or respond to enforcement, or simply to get an independent second opinion. Whatever the trigger, our role is to cut through the complexity and tell you what matters.
If you’re unsure who the responsible person is or what your duties are, our guide Understanding Fire Safety Law explains it clearly in plain English.
How we can help
Our consultancy support flexes around your building and your duties. Common ways we help include:
Fire risk assessment review and action plans
Making sense of an existing assessment and turning its findings into a clear, prioritised plan you can act on.
Fire strategy guidance and specialist referral
Advising whether a fire strategy is required and referring you to an appropriately competent fire engineer to prepare it
Compliance audits and gap analysis
An independent check of where you stand against your duties, with any gaps clearly set out.
Evacuation strategy review and management planning
Assessing whether your evacuation strategy is appropriate and advising on day-to-day fire safety management.
Enforcement and insurer support
A calm, competent response when a fire authority or insurer raises questions.
What you receive
Clear, written advice in plain English, focused on your building and your duties, with practical and proportionate recommendations. Where works or specialist input are needed, we identify them and can recommend competent contractors or specialists.
Our consultancy approach
Daedon is a building surveying and fire safety consultancy. We assess, advise, review and report. We do not install or maintain fire safety equipment ourselves, which keeps our advice independent and focused only on what is right for your building.
