Fire safety in action
As part of our building health and safety services, Aston Group has installed multiple fire and safety systems for our clients, across different types of residential and commercial properties. Here are some examples of our fire and safety systems service in action:
- Longfield House: Waltham Forest Council contracted Aston Group to carry out a major upgrade of the sheltered accommodation comprising 36 flats in 2020. Fire safety systems used include a new sprinkler system, new emergency exit signage, new emergency lighting system, upgrade to the existing fire detection system, kitchen redecoration with fire and smoke Thermoguard paint and installation of fire-rated ceilings and fire doors. Read the full case study here.
- Prentice Place: This commercial and residential development comprised seven retail units and 15 flats. After a fire risk assessor uncovered significant shortfalls with a refurbishment completed by the previous contractor, Harlow Council contracted Aston Group to address regulatory changes following publication of the Hackitt Report. Services included carrying out fire stopping and fire door upgrades to ensure compliance with new regulations and providing the correct fire safety certifications. Read the full case study here.
