A wealth of experience and expertise in working with historic buildings.

• We can offer advice on fire safety matters, emergency and contingency planning and staff training to reflect your building’s special needs.
• Let us help you to protect our Nation’s heritage by finding sympathetic, imaginative and cost effective solutions to your fire safety problems whether they be for a change of use, preservation and protection or for compliance with Building Regulations, Fire Safety, Disability Discrimination Act or Health and Safety legislation.
• Should the worse ever happen, we can offer effective planning for emergency situations - for example to produce emergency plans covering fire, flood and salvage issues.
