Surveying & Compliance Documentation
for Fire Safety

Accurate documentation is essential for fire safety compliance, especially under the Building Safety Act 2022 and Regulation 38. 

At Gunfire, our surveying and compliance services provide the critical data and drawings required to support fire risk assessments, refurbishment planning, and regulatory submissions. Whether you’re managing a new build or retrofitting an existing structure, our surveys ensure your fire protection strategy is built on a solid foundation.


Why Surveying Matters in Fire Protection

Surveying is more than measurement — it’s about creating a reliable record of your building’s layout, structure, and fire safety features.

These records are vital for:

  • Identifying fire compartments and escape routes.
  • Planning fire stopping and cavity barrier installations.
  • Supporting fire strategy development.
  • Ensuring compliance with statutory regulations.
  • Maintaining the Golden Thread of building information.

Our surveys are conducted with precision and delivered in formats that integrate seamlessly with your fire safety documentation.
