About Guardian Fire Safety

Directors Mark Reti and Rory McNamara started in the fire safety industry as Fire Safety Enforcement Officers for Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service, where they accumulated a wealth of knowledge including Enforcement, Building Regulation and Prosecution experience. Besides this, a passion for the specialism was established as well as a drive to help people and make the built environment safer for all those who occupy it. 

This experience and passion, as well as a number of years as fire risk validators/assessors within the private sector, lead them to form the company, bringing all the experience of public and private sectors together. With their own business, they were able to build a company with occupant safety, passion and care at the forefront of all decision making.

This did not just stop at client care, there was also a desire to create a caring and inclusive company where staff are treated fairly and are looked after, so that our staff can share the same passion for wanting to provide the best service.

With this in mind, our flagship Fire Risk Assessment service was designed to deliver a quality report crafted from our inhouse report writing system IgKnight, which ensures a high industry standard and consistency.

This ensures the delivery of a fully suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment that will both be easily understandable for the clients, as well as fulfil any requirements that the fire service will want, which is where our origins in public and private sector fire safety are invaluable.

The fire risk assessment involves an in person visit to the premises where a detailed visual assessment will be undertaken. 

This involves a site walk around checking all accessible areas which involves a full check of active and passive fire protection, and all required fire precautions. A record inspection will also take place on site (or if more convenient, via email) which will involve maintenance records for all fire safety installations. 

Please see the list of Requirements to help you understand what will likely be needed.
