What Apex does

Fire risk assessments and fire door inspections for your premises

Whether you need a full fire risk assessment or a closer look at your fire doors, Apex helps responsible people understand the risks in their premises and decide what needs attention. Tell us about your building and we will quote based on the scope.

Lead service

Assess hazards, people at risk, existing controls, escape arrangements, and fire safety management. Receive clear findings and prioritised recommendations based on the building and how it is used.

Supporting service

A fire door inspection or survey reviews fire doors and the details that affect their performance, identifies visible defects, and explains what needs further attention.

Apex provides inspection and advice; it does not install or repair doors.

Who Apex works with

Fire risk assessments for landlords, care homes, schools and commercial buildings

Different premises bring different responsibilities and practical challenges. The assessment should reflect the actual building, its occupancy, and its day-to-day use.

Getting a quote

What affects the cost of a fire risk assessment?

Every building is different, so Apex quotes on scope rather than a flat rate. Tell us about your premises and what you need, and we will confirm the scope and provide a quote.

The main things that shape a quote

  • The size and layout of the premises
  • How the building is used and who uses it
  • Whether people sleep there, such as care homes, HMOs and flats
  • The number of floors, units or separate premises
  • Any existing assessment, plans or fire safety records

The Apex approach

Clear findings. Practical next steps.

Apex takes an independent, evidence-led approach to fire safety. Assessments are tailored to the premises rather than copied from a generic checklist. Findings are explained clearly, with recommendations that help responsible people understand priorities and plan appropriate action.

01

Understand the premises

Consider the building, its use, occupants, and existing arrangements.

02

Explain the risks

Set out significant findings and the reasons behind them in plain language.

03

Prioritise action

Provide proportionate recommendations that support informed decisions.

About Apex

That background informs a practical understanding of how fire develops and how buildings perform under real conditions. Apex provides independent assessment and advice focused on protecting people and helping organisations manage their responsibilities.
