Fire Active

We all understand that fire can devastate property, businesses, and lives, so ensuring that you have an adequate fire protection strategy in place is always vital to upholding compliance and safety. It also delivers peace of mind, and may on occasions, ensure that the value of your property asset is not compromised.

We will assess the fire protection needs of your organisation, providing the appropriate recommendations based on the requirements of the environment.

Services Include:

  • Fire Detection and Fire Alarm Systems (Analogue and Digital)
  • PAVA
  • Emergency Lighting
  • Fire Extinguishers.

Passive Fire

Passive fire protection is a vital support area we manage for clients. This is often enclosed above suspended ceilings or within cavities and knowing where the passive fire protection installation is placed, is not always obvious.

As the industry has seen changes in legislation more recently, and with a desire by property owners to ensure compliance and safety, more scrutiny and responsibility is required. This will ensure that works are completed competently by contractors. Wherever the containment of fire may be compromised, such as cabling, pipework, and changes to the internal layout of the building, breaches in fire-resisting construction could take place in your building.

It is the Fire Risk assessor’s responsibility to check that your passive fire protection products and other fire safety measures are compliant and intact.

Over the lifespan of any building, alterations, potential changes of use, updating, and expansion are often likely to alter the existing fabric of the building. Regular assessments are essential elements of the fire safety measures under the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order and are needed to maintain the fire safety status.

Starfish Construction will assist in your compliance with your passive fire protection responsibilities, making sure that your products and solutions are not compromised. Surveys will include checking penetration seals for Mechanical and Electrical services, including: Fire Curtains, Acoustic Barriers, Fire Dampers and H&V Enclosures.

Services Include:

  • Fire Stopping Surveys and Maintenance
  • Fire Door Service and Maintenance
  • Building Façade Inspection
  • Technical Advice and Support.

Security

Starfish Construction provides modern and effective security systems, working with you to create the most appropriate solution and design for risk requirements, aligned with your business.

We provide the design, installation, and management services which include:

  • CCTV Systems
  • Access Control
  • Intruder Alarm
