Our consultancy team provides comprehensive fire safety services for diverse infrastructure and built environments, identifying risks and ensuring alignment with building regulations and statutory requirements. We offer a total fire engineer approach encompassing all aspects of fire safety design, installation and management throughout the whole life cycle of our clients’ buildings. We provide industry-leading design advice, onsite in-depth reviews of passive and active fire safety systems, as well as external wall design and provisions for firefighting and evacuation in the event of a fire. All services include providing cost-effective proposals, tailored to each building’s specific operational needs.

Within our team, we have fire consultants who specialise in all aspects of fire safety. Whilst clients are provided with a client-specific fire engineer, where detailed review and analysis on specific issues are needed, we are able to provide industry experts to all our clients whenever required.

We offer a whole-life building services advisory solution, covering design, procurement, installation, operation, maintenance, and refurbishment or decommissioning. By integrating expertise in fire protection and MEP (Mechanical, Electrical, and Plumbing) systems, our approach ensures fully compliant, efficient design and construction that prioritises occupant safety and smooth facility operations.

From managing the installation and commissioning of fire safety systems to analysing and auditing these systems during the operational phase of a building, we support clients whenever required.

We also provide project services to our clients where the refurbishment of these systems or the installation of new systems becomes necessary. This helps ensure the most effective and efficient systems are proposed and installed.

For PFI projects, our specialists deliver critical technical and contractual support throughout all phases – from initial construction to ongoing maintenance. We assess whether existing building systems meet contractual specifications and statutory standards, producing in-depth survey reports that detail potential non-compliances and recommend cost-effective remedies.

When disputes arise, we provide industry-leading support on contractual and statutory requirements, ensuring all aspects of fire safety are successfully remediated and left in a fully operational state. We are able to help clarify responsibilities, propose practical solutions, and help clients recover losses or enforce compliance measures. This systematic approach has been used by Leviathan when representing major educational, healthcare, and defence sites, where maintaining operational continuity is paramount.

Leviathan is a leading provider of retrospective fire strategies for buildings where original fire documentation is missing or no longer valid. We carry out site assessments, review building layouts and usage, and apply current fire safety regulations to develop compliant strategies providing assurance for our clients that all fire safety requirements have been covered. Our strategy reports set out what was required at the time of original construction, what is present within the building at the time of writing the strategy, and what is required to ensure compliance with all current requirements. Leviathan recognises that existing buildings cannot always accommodate newer regulations, and in these situations we provide effective and safe mitigation measures to ensure buildings are as safe as possible for all building users.

In addition to our fire strategy provision, we can provide detailed and effective risk mitigation strategies for existing buildings, specifically where non-compliances arise and buildings are unable to be adapted to satisfy new regulatory requirements. Leviathan is proactive when risks arise, and we implement a risk management approach tailored to each specific building. This includes bespoke mitigation strategies that reduce the level of risk and ensure buildings are functional and safe.
