Our ASSESS solutions
Fire Risk Assessments:
Fire risk legislation mandates that virtually all non-domestic premises undergo a comprehensive fire risk assessment, placing the onus on the ‘responsible person’—typically the employer, owner, or occupier. This involves a systematic identification of fire hazards, at-risk individuals, and an evaluation of existing fire safety protocols.
The assessment must detail actionable steps to mitigate fire risks and ensure safe evacuation. Beyond a mere procedural formality, a fire risk assessment is a documented, iterative process, requiring regular review and updates. It includes a thorough physical inspection of the premises, focusing on escape routes, fire detection and alarm systems, firefighting equipment, and emergency procedures. Particular attention must be paid to the needs of vulnerable individuals.
At Expyro, we ensure our findings are meticulously documented, including all implemented and planned actions, and offer tailored staff training based on the assessment’s outcomes.
Fire Door Inspections:
We specialise in comprehensive fire door inspection surveys, meticulously designed to provide a detailed and accurate assessment of your fire door systems. Employing state-of-the-art technology and equipment, we ensure a thorough examination, leaving no aspect of your fire doors overlooked.
Our surveys commence with a rigorous visual inspection, evaluating the condition of frames, structures, hardware, and seals, identifying any damage or wear. We also scrutinise for signs of incorrect installation or inadequate maintenance, both of which can significantly compromise fire door performance.
Should any fire doors fail to meet the required standards, we provide detailed, actionable recommendations for remediation. Our fire door inspection surveys offer invaluable peace of mind, confirming the operational integrity of your fire doors and contributing to the overall safety of your building.
Our detailed reports, designed for clarity and ease of understanding, include photographic and diagrammatic evidence to illustrate any identified issues. Our expert team is readily available to address any inquiries regarding the inspection report or your fire door systems.
Fire Door Certification:
In the UK, fire door compliance is paramount, driven by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. While direct legal certification by a single body isn’t mandated, reputable third-party schemes are widely respected for independently verifying manufacturing and installation standards.
The Fire Safety Act 2021 and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 further reinforce fire door safety, particularly in multi-occupied residences, demanding regular checks and functional self-closing devices. Although these regulations focus on operational effectiveness rather than explicit certification, building owners and managers are clearly responsible for ensuring fire doors meet required standards.
Expyro’s certification service provides a reliable and documented means of demonstrating this essential due diligence.

Fire Stopping Inspection:
Fire stopping inspections are indispensable in verifying the efficacy of passive fire protection systems within UK buildings. These inspections focus on assessing the integrity of fire-resistant compartmentation, specifically the sealing of openings and gaps in walls, floors, and ceilings to prevent the propagation of fire and smoke. A thorough examination includes meticulous checks on penetration seals around pipes and cables, the integrity of cavity barriers within concealed spaces, and the proper installation and maintenance of fire doors and their frames.
Although the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 does not stipulate a rigid inspection frequency, it places a clear obligation on the responsible person to maintain adequate fire precautions. Consequently, regular, documented fire stopping inspections are essential for demonstrating ongoing compliance and ensuring the continuous safety of building occupants. These inspections should be performed by competent individuals possessing specialised knowledge of fire stopping systems.
Expyro offers comprehensive fire stopping inspections, conducted by our team of highly skilled and knowledgeable professionals. Ideally, these inspections should be conducted at regular intervals, such as annually, or whenever alterations or damage may have compromised the building’s fire compartmentation. Our comprehensive inspections will meticulously identify any deficiencies, enabling prompt and effective remedial actions to uphold the integrity and effectiveness of the building’s fire safety measures.
We conduct thorough and detailed Fire Risk Assessments, identifying potential fire hazards and providing actionable recommendations to mitigate risks and ensure compliance with UK fire safety legislation.
At Expyro, we ensure our findings are meticulously documented, including all implemented and planned actions, and offer tailored staff training based on the assessment’s outcomes.
