ABOUT THIS SERVICE
What Are Fire Safety Remedial Action Reviews?
A Fire Safety Remedial Action Review is a formal inspection carried out after remedial fire safety works have been completed.
These reviews confirm whether actions identified within fire risk assessments, compartmentation surveys, fire door inspections or enforcement notices have been implemented correctly and in line with recognised guidance.
The review does not replace the original survey. Instead, it provides documented assurance that the required corrective works now meet expected fire safety standards.

WHY IT'S IMPORTANT
Why Remedial Action Reviews Matter
Remedial works alone do not guarantee compliance. Incorrect installation, unsuitable materials or incomplete repairs can leave buildings exposed despite apparent improvements.
For Responsible Persons, this creates uncertainty.
A Fire Safety Remedial Action Review provides:
Independent confirmation that works were completed correctly
Evidence of active compliance management
Assurance for insurers, landlords and managing agents
Reduced risk of enforcement action
Confidence that life safety measures will perform as intended
Without verification, remedial works may fail inspection or be challenged during audits.

COMPLIANCE
Associated Fire Safety Legislation and Standards
Fire Safety Remedial Action Reviews support compliance with:
Fire (Scotland) Act 2005
Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006
Scottish Fire Safety Guidance for Non-Domestic Premises
BS 9999 – Code of practice for fire safety design
BS 8214 – Fire door assemblies
ASFP Technical Guidance Documents (where applicable)
Scottish Fire and Rescue Service may request evidence that identified defects have been adequately addressed.
THE RISKS OF INACTION
What Happens Without Verification
If remedial works are not independently reviewed:
Defects may remain unresolved or incorrectly repaired
Fire protection systems may not perform during an incident
Enforcement authorities may reject completed works
Insurance cover may be compromised
Duty-holders may remain legally liable
Further costs may arise from rework or repeat inspections
In the event of an incident, lack of verification can be viewed as a failure to manage fire safety duties
