Fire Safety Compliance for Automotive Businesses.
Fire risk in automotive workshops is significantly higher than in many other workplaces.
That’s where Garage Comply comes in.
Fire safety in automotive workshops isn’t just about having a document on file — it’s about understanding real risks and making sure the right controls are in place.
We provide automotive-specific fire risk assessments and ongoing fire safety support, helping garages understand what’s required, what’s a priority, and what can be managed sensibly over time.
We take an independent, practical approach — assessing risk, reviewing fire safety arrangements, and advising clearly on fire detection, emergency procedures and compliance.
Just clear, proportionate fire safety support built for real workshops.

Fire Risk Assessment.
A fire risk assessment is a legal requirement for all non-domestic premises.
Garage Comply carries out automotive-specific fire risk assessments that consider how your workshop actually operates — not generic office assumptions.
Our assessments look at:
-
Fire hazards and ignition sources
-
People at risk
-
Fire detection and warning systems
-
Means of escape
-
Firefighting equipment
-
Emergency procedures
-
You’ll receive a clear, practical report outlining:
-
What’s compliant
-
What needs attention
-
What should be prioritised
Beyond the assessment - What we offer.
