What we do

Our approach to fire safety and compliance

01

Fire strategy and fire engineering

We support architects, developers and contractors with detailed fire strategy plans for new developments, refurbishments and change-of-use projects. Our strategies set out how fire safety measures protect escape routes, building occupants and the wider resilience of the building. Where standard guidance is not suitable, we can develop performance-based fire engineering solutions in line with BS 7974, supporting compliance while allowing greater design flexibility.

02

Construction-phase fire assurance

Construction-phase fire assurance provides independent oversight of fire safety measures while a project is being delivered. Our work can include site inspections, evidence gathering for compartmentation and fire stopping, installation reviews and the preparation of regulator-ready documentation. By identifying potential issues during construction, we help clients reduce the risk of delays, extensive remedial work and problems at handover or Gateway 3.

03

Fire safety compliance and risk management

We provide comprehensive fire risk assessments and compliance support for schools, healthcare environments, residential buildings, commercial properties and other occupied premises. Our consultants can also undertake compartmentation surveys, fire door inspections and wider compliance reviews. We provide clear findings and practical recommendations to help responsible persons understand the actions required to protect occupants and meet their duties under current UK fire safety legislation.

04

Fire electrical services and delivery

Alongside our consultancy services, J.S.O provides practical fire electrical support for buildings across the UK. Our services include fire alarm systems, emergency lighting, electrical fire safety remedial works, fire stopping around electrical penetrations, commercial EICRs and planned or reactive maintenance. Combining consultancy with practical delivery helps clients address identified issues efficiently and maintain accurate evidence of completed work.
