The Importance of Regularly Inspecting Your Fire Escape Across London & Sussex

When it comes to building safety, your fire escape is one of the most critical components of your property. Whether you own a residential block, commercial premises, or industrial site, your fire escape must remain safe, stable, and fully functional at all times.

At Env Contractors Ltd, we specialise in fire escape inspections and repairs across London and Sussex, helping property owners meet safety regulations and protect lives.

Why Fire Escape Inspections Are Essential

Fire escapes are exposed to the elements year-round — facing rain, frost, corrosion, and general wear and tear. Over time, this exposure can lead to:

• Rust and corrosion weakening the metalwork

• Loose bolts or cracked joints

• Worn or slippery treads

• Structural instability

• Blocked or unsafe access points

Regular fire escape inspections identify these issues early before they become dangerous or costly. A neglected fire escape not only puts lives at risk but can also lead to non-compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which requires property owners to ensure safe means of escape at all times.
