Start with the notice, not an assumed solution
Send the complete notice or order, including attachments and the stated dates. Beigman can review the fire safety questions with your building surveyor and project team, then discuss what assessment, site information or supporting documents are needed.
A fire compliance report records the agreed assessment and findings. Where appropriate, a fire engineering Performance Solution may be considered. The approach depends on the building and the issues raised.
How Beigman can help
- Review fire safety matters raised in the council notice or order.
- Assess available drawings, existing fire reports and building information.
- Prepare a fire engineering or fire compliance report for the agreed scope.
- Explain proposed measures, limitations and information the project team needs for review.
What to send Reza
- The complete building notice or order and its response or compliance dates.
- The building address, current use and any proposed changes.
- Available drawings, permits, previous fire reports and relevant correspondence.
- Your building surveyor or council contact, if available.
A report does not replace the council process
Commissioning a report does not itself cancel a notice, extend a deadline or approve building work. Follow the requirements in your notice or order and discuss any questions about its dates or directions with the issuing authority. Beigman provides fire engineering advice, not legal advice.
Tell us promptly if a deadline is close. Reza will confirm whether the scope and timing can be accommodated before you engage the service.
Common questions
Can you help with an existing building?
Yes. Beigman works with existing-building fire safety issues, including matters raised in council building notices and orders. Send the documents first so Reza can confirm the appropriate scope.
Will a report guarantee the notice is resolved?
No. The relevant authority reviews the response, and further evidence or building work may be needed. The outcome depends on the particular building and the matters raised.
What if the deadline is urgent?
Call or send the notice with the exact deadline. We will discuss availability, the information required and a realistic programme. Contacting Beigman does not change the dates in the notice.
