Need a fire risk assessment? Sunderland premises we regularly assess include offices, shops, pubs and restaurants, HMOs and industrial units. Your legal duties are set out in the government’s fire safety guidance for businesses, and Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue Service enforces them locally. Booking a fire risk assessment? Sunderland premises vary in size and use, so we confirm timings and a fixed price before we visit. After your fire risk assessment, Sunderland clients can hand us the follow-up work too, from alarms and emergency lighting to extinguishers and signage.
Sunderland has reinvented itself around a modern economy, with the offices of Doxford International Business Park, the manufacturing and logistics sites near the Nissan plant, a busy Port of Sunderland and retail and hospitality along the seafront at Roker and Seaburn. Vortex Fire and Security Solutions supports them all with dependable fire safety.
Every Sunderland fire risk assessment is completed by an IFSM-accredited assessor holding a Level 4 Diploma in Fire Risk Assessment. You receive a clear, written report with prioritised actions, giving you a practical route to full compliance rather than a box-ticking exercise.
Protection also needs to keep working long after the assessment. Our Level 3 FIA-certified engineers design, install, service and maintain fire alarms, while we look after fire extinguishers, intruder alarms and CCTV for commercial and domestic premises alike. Every engineer is enhanced DBS certified.
