Fire Remedials
Ark Fire Protection’s fire remedial works encompass a range of manual services aimed at addressing passive fire protection deficiencies in a building’s framework. Our services involve the reconstitution or re-implementation of a range of passive fire protection measures that do not currently meet the required fire safety standards. Our fire risk assessment remedial works are designed to elevate your building’s fire safety standards to the appropriate level – meeting current guidelines and regulations.
Fire remedial works are corrective fire safety measures carried out to fix defects, failures, or non-compliant elements identified during fire risk assessments, inspections, or audits. They’re essential for restoring the integrity of passive and active fire protection systems so a building performs as intended in the event of a fire. By addressing issues such as missing fire stopping, damaged fire doors, or failed compartmentation, fire remedial works help protect lives, limit fire spread, and ensure legal compliance.
We strictly adhere to best practice guidelines to guarantee complete compliance of all contracted buildings.

Our Fire Risk Assessment Remedial Works process is thorough, professional, and tailored to your business. We work with you to develop a plan that meets your individual needs and safety requirements.
We begin with a detailed fire safety survey, typically informed by a third-party Fire Risk Assessment. This inspection reviews compartmentation, fire doors, fire stopping, partitions, and other passive fire protection measures to understand the current condition of the building.
Any non-compliances or defects are identified and assessed based on risk level, fire strategy, and regulatory requirements. This ensures that life-critical issues and high-risk deficiencies are prioritised appropriately.
A clear scope of remedial works is developed, specifying the required repairs, replacements, or upgrades. All recommendations align with Building Regulations Approved Document B, relevant British Standards, and the building’s fire strategy.
Our certified engineers carry out the required remedial works, which may include fire door repairs, fire stopping remediation, partition upgrades, or fire-resisting construction. All work is completed using tested, third-party accredited systems.
Once works are complete, installations are inspected and tested where required to confirm correct performance. Certification and photographic evidence are provided to demonstrate compliance and support audit or enforcement requirements.
Fire remedial works do not end at completion. We provide guidance on ongoing inspection, maintenance, and future compliance to help ensure fire safety measures remain effective throughout the building’s lifecycle.
Choosing Ark Fire Protection means choosing a personalised, tailored solution. We understand that each building has its unique fire safety requirements and we strive to provide services that specifically address these needs. Our effective remediation installations are aimed at ensuring the safety of building occupants, giving individuals the critical time needed to evacuate in the event of a fire.

Over time, buildings might undergo changes such as renovations, which can compromise the effectiveness of existing fire protection systems. Fire remedial works are crucial to maintain the resilience of these systems.

Fire remedial works must comply with strict UK standards and regulations to ensure building safety and legal adherence. Key standards include:
Compliance with these regulations ensures that remedial works effectively contain fire and smoke, protect occupants, and maintain legal and regulatory standards.
Fire remedial works are corrective actions taken to address fire safety deficiencies identified during a Fire Risk Assessment. They involve repairing, replacing, or upgrading fire protection systems to ensure buildings meet regulatory standards and effectively contain fire and smoke.
These works are crucial for maintaining occupant safety, protecting property, and ensuring compliance with UK fire safety regulations. Addressing deficiencies reduces the risk of fire spread, supports safe evacuation, and mitigates legal and financial liabilities.
Common systems include fire doors and door seals, fire-stopping materials, fire-rated partitions, fire curtains, alarm systems, and other passive or active fire protection elements that have been identified as non-compliant or damaged.
The building’s “Responsible Person” under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 – typically the owner, manager, or employer – is legally accountable for ensuring remedial works are completed. Certified contractors or specialists usually carry out the physical works to guarantee compliance and safety.
