Fire Inspection

At Vortex, we provide fire inspection services to all residential and commercial buildings to ensure you meet all legal requirements and compliance. Fire inspections are required to be inspected and tested on a regular basis each year as per the Australian Standards AS1851 – most buildings require inspections and testing to be completed every six months or twice a year.

Our team of highly trained and experienced inspectors will carry out a comprehensive inspection of your building, checking all fire safety equipment and systems to ensure they are in good working order. We also provide advice on any necessary repairs or upgrades that may be required to maintain compliance. For peace of mind, call VF today and let us take care of your fire inspection needs.

Structural and Content Clean and Restore

When a fire breaks out, the damage doesn’t stop when the flames are extinguished. Soot, smoke, and ash can all linger long after the fire is out, leaving your home or office in need of a thorough clean. That’s where our Structural and Content Clean and Restoration services come in.

We will remove all traces of smoke and soot from your property, as well as any lingering odours. We will also clean any internal or external surfaces that have been damaged by the fire. Our goal is to leave your property looking and smelling like new again.

Rectification

Here at Vortex Fire, we offer professional fire rectification services to ensure that your building complies with all the latest safety standards. We understand that keeping your Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS) up to date is essential to protect all occupants of the building in case of a fire emergency.

Where we can help?

With changes to building codes happening on a regular basis, you may find yourself served with a council fire upgrade notice. This is where we can help. We can provide all the necessary services to bring your building up to code, including fire-resistant doors, windows, shutters, and access panels; as well as fire and smoke barriers such as walls and block work walls.

If you’re in need of Fire Rectification Services, enquire with us today and let us help you keep your building safe.

Council Fire Order Corrections

Council fire orders are important for the safety of both buildings and the people who occupy them. Unfortunately, many buildings are not up to code in terms of fire safety, and this can pose a serious risk.

To protect both people and property, it is essential that fire orders are followed. The council has the power to issue fire orders when a building is found to be in an unsafe condition. This can be due to several factors, such as a lack of working smoke detectors or missing fire extinguishers.

In some cases, the council may also require upgrades or repairs to an existing building if it is not compliant with fire safety standards. By following fire orders, we can help to ensure that our buildings are safe for everyone.

Annual Fire Safety Statement (AFSS)

Annual Fire Safety Statements (AFSS) are required to be issued each year for all buildings in New South Wales. The statement must include all essential fire safety measures that apply to the building and must be completed by an accredited practitioner.

The inspection must confirm that the exit systems in the building are in compliance with the regulation, and the AFSS must be submitted within 12 months from the date the previous statement was submitted. Fines may apply for late submission.

Staying AFSS Compliant

It is important to ensure that your AFSS is always up to date and compliant. One way to do this is to book an inspection with an Accredited Practitioner in advance and you may choose to have this recurring.

Vortex Fire has a team of Accredited Practitioners who are qualified and experienced in carrying out fire inspections in residential and commercial buildings. Our team can provide you with a free quote and book your fire inspection. Contact our team today to get started!

Tactical Fire Plan

Tactical fire plans are an essential tool for firefighters and other emergency personnel. By providing details of a building’s active and passive fire protection equipment, as well as instructions for their operation in case of fire, they help to ensure that everyone knows what to do in the event of an emergency.

In addition, tactical fire plans can also be used to assess the potential consequences of a fire and devise an appropriate response strategy. As such, they play a vital role in keeping people safe and protecting property from damage.

Comprehensive Tactical Fire Plan

Tactical fire plans are an essential part of any building’s fire protection strategy. By documenting the location of services such as emergency lighting, fire dampers, and fire extinguishers, these plans help first responders quickly and efficiently address a fire incident.

In addition, schematic diagrams of the building’s fire mains system, smoke control system, and power distribution system can be extremely helpful in coordinating a response.

Effective Fire Response

It’s extremely important that the Tactical Fire Plan meets the requirements and is readily available for first responders in case of any emergency. These plans should be reviewed and maintained on a regular basis to ensure accuracy and reflect any changes within the building.
