A fire strategy report is a technical fire safety document. It sets out the main fire safety measures for a building and explains how those measures work together. The report may consider escape routes, travel distances, fire alarms, smoke control, emergency lighting, fire doors, compartmentation, firefighting access, evacuation strategy and ongoing fire safety management assumptions.
For new builds and major refurbishments, the fire strategy usually sits alongside the design process. For existing buildings, a retrospective fire strategy may be prepared where the original documentation is unavailable, incomplete or no longer reflects the current building.

A building control fire strategy in London can support new developments, commercial fit-outs, mixed-use schemes, change-of-use projects, major alterations and refurbishment works. Developers, architects, and property owners may need a clear fire strategy document before finalising layouts or when building control requests more information.
We can help prepare fire strategy reports for developers and project teams, referencing relevant guidance such as Approved Document B, BS 9991, BS 9999, and other applicable standards depending on the building type. The aim is to explain how fire safety measures work together within the design.
You may need a fire strategy report when planning a new building, converting a property into flats, changing the use of a building, carrying out a major refurbishment, altering escape routes, responding to building control comments or reviewing an existing building with missing fire safety records.
A fire strategy can also be useful before construction progresses too far. Fire safety issues found late can affect doors, corridors, staircases, alarms, smoke control, compartmentation and access arrangements.
