SLB Compliance FAQs
-
As an independent consultancy, we do not sell fire doors, alarm systems, or undertake remedial building works. This means our fire risk assessments and surveys are 100% unbiased: we only recommend necessary, proportionate safety measures, protecting you from over-specified or unnecessary repairs.
-
Our Fire Risk Assessments are undertaken using recognised methodology and the appropriate current guidance for the particular premises, including PAS 79-1:2020 for non-residential premises and BS 9792:2025 for purpose built blocks of flats, together with relevant sector specific guidance where applicable.
-
Under UK legislation, a Fire Risk Assessment should be reviewed regularly (typically annually) or immediately if there are significant changes to the building's layout, occupancy, or use. When it comes to Fire Door Surveys, fire doors in residential blocks (over 11 metres) require formal routine checks under the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022, alongside regular commercial inspections.
-
We provide clear, jargon-free digital reports via platforms like Firehub and Mitti (formerly SafetyCulture). Every report includes a prioritised action plan with practical recommendations. We also offer ongoing aftercare support to help your team or property manager understand and execute the required actions.
