Shepton Mallet's Trusted Fire Safety Specialist
5-Star Rated Fire Risk Assessments Across Somerset — Clear Reports, Practical Advice
About Mendip Fire Safety
Hi, I'm the specialist behind Mendip Fire Safety. I carry out fire risk assessments and fire safety compliance work across Somerset, helping landlords, property managers and business owners understand their legal obligations and actually meet them — without jargon, without alarm, and without padding the report with things you don't need.
My approach is straightforward: I come out to your property, look at it properly, and give you a clear written report that explains the real risks, what the regulations require, and exactly what action — if any — needs to be taken. You get an honest picture, not a box-ticking exercise. Every report is written to be read, not filed away unopened.
Whether you're a landlord with a single let, a managing agent with a portfolio, or a business owner with a compliance deadline looming, I can get you sorted quickly and give you genuine peace of mind that the job has been done right.

FAQ
I visit your property, carry out a thorough inspection of the building, its fire precautions, escape routes, and any existing measures, and then produce a clear written report. The report explains the risks found, the relevant legal requirements, and a prioritised action plan so you know exactly what needs addressing and in what order.
Every property is different, so I provide a fixed written quote after the initial survey — there are no hidden extras and the price is agreed before any work begins. Call to discuss your property and I'll give you a clear indication straightaway.
Yes, I am fully insured and carry out assessments in accordance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. My assessments are thorough, defensible and will stand up to scrutiny from the fire authority or an insurance provider.
The time on-site depends on the size and complexity of the property — a small rental flat may take under an hour, while a larger commercial premises or HMO will take longer. I'll give you a realistic estimate when we discuss your property, and the written report is typically delivered promptly after the visit.
I assess the cause and context of risks, not just the surface symptoms — looking at occupant behaviour, building construction, fire precaution quality and management arrangements. You get an honest picture of where your property actually stands, not a generic checklist.
I cover Shepton Mallet and the surrounding Somerset area, including Wells, Glastonbury, Frome, Street, Bruton, Castle Cary, Radstock, Midsomer Norton, Bridgwater and Yeovil. Call to confirm coverage for your location.
