In Queensland, building owners and occupiers must ensure fire protection equipment is maintained in a safe and operable condition. This work must be done by appropriately licensed companies employing suitably trained and licenced technicians.
We take our job very seriously because if we don't, assets could be lost or people could be at risk of harm.
Fortifire will help you ensure your fire-management systems are functioning and reliable.
We are experts when it comes to the legislative requirements for building fire safety engineering. Our services are designed to help you comply with the Queensland Development Code MP6.1 and Queensland Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 and avoid possible penalties that could be imposed by the Queensland Fire and Rescue Service.
