Independent Fire Safety Audits Across Queensland and Australia

Fire Auditors provides independent fire safety audits that meet Queensland legislation and Australian Standards. We assess your building's compliance, document everything we find, and give you a report that holds up for your insurer, solicitor, and the Queensland Fire Department.

Your Maintenance Company Does the Work. We Confirm It Was Done Correctly.

A fire safety audit and fire equipment maintenance are two separate legal obligations. Your maintenance company services the equipment. An independent auditor verifies that the work meets the required standard and that your building satisfies Queensland fire safety legislation.

Most commercial buildings, strata complexes, and large organisations are required to be independently audited annually. If your last audit was more than 12 months ago, or you have never had one, your compliance may already be at risk.

What We Look at When We Audit Your Building

Our audits cover fire alarms, extinguishers, hydrants, hose reels, emergency lighting, evacuation diagrams, training records, evacuation plans, routes, doors, and compliance documentation including Occupier's Statements. We also take note of any works carried out in the building and identify anything that requires attention.

  • Evacuation diagrams and emergency plans assessed for compliance with AS 3745:2010 and Queensland fire safety laws.

  • Building changes and recent works noted and assessed against your current compliance obligations.

  • Compliance documentation reviewed and confirmed ready for submission to regulators and insurers.

No Equipment to Sell. No Maintenance Contracts to Push.
Just an Honest Audit.

Fire Auditors is not affiliated with any fire equipment supplier or maintenance company. Every finding in our report is based on what we actually find in your building, not what benefits us afterwards.

We service buildings across Queensland, NSW, Victoria, and Western Australia including remote locations other auditors will not travel to. Audits start from $400.

Why is a fire safety inspection crucial for my building?

Fire safety inspections are vital for ensuring your building is safe, compliant with regulations, and ready for emergencies. Regular inspections help identify and fix potential risks, protecting your property and the safety of everyone inside.

What are my legal requirements under fire safety regulations?

Under Queensland's regulations, your legal requirements for fire safety include:

  • Following the Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 for safety measures and evacuation plans.
  • Meeting the Queensland Development Code Part MP 6.1 for fire safety installation maintenance.
  • Abiding by the Fire and Emergency Services Act 1990 for overall safety compliance.
  • Maintaining fire protection systems and equipment in line with Australian Standard AS 1851.
  • Ensuring your building complies with the National Construction Code (NCC) for fire safety.
  • Developing and implementing a Fire Safety Management Plan (FSMP) specific to your premises.
  • Appointing Fire Safety Advisers if your building has high occupancy, to guide on fire safety issues.
  • Creating and regularly practicing Evacuation Coordination Procedures for safe and efficient building evacuation.
  • Conducting regular maintenance and testing of all Fire Safety Installations to guarantee they are functional.
  • Keeping accurate records of all fire safety maintenance, testing, and training activities conducted.

These requirements are crucial for ensuring the safety of your premises and compliance with state laws.

Why is fire evacuation training important for my staff?

Fire evacuation training prepares your staff to respond quickly and safely during an emergency. It covers evacuation procedures, escape routes, and emergency roles, helping to protect lives and ensure your building complies with safety regulations.

How does fire warden training benefit my building?

Fire warden training ensures designated staff are fully equipped to lead during emergencies. It prepares them to manage evacuations, use safety equipment, and coordinate with emergency services, keeping your building compliant and everyone inside safe.

Can you help  with fire extinguishers and smoke alarms?

No, and this is an important distinction. Fire Auditors is an independent auditing company. We assess and report on compliance, we do not physically service, install, or maintain fire equipment. If you need extinguisher servicing, smoke alarm testing, or any fire equipment maintenance, you need a licensed fire protection company. We are happy to point you in the right direction. If you need an independent audit on top of your maintenance, which is a separate legal requirement, that is where we come in.

What types of buildings do you audit?

We audit commercial buildings, residential strata complexes, body corporate properties, convention centres, office buildings, warehouses, industrial facilities, government buildings, and large organisations across Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. If you are unsure whether your building type falls within our scope, contact us and we will let you know quickly.

Can you audit multiple buildings?

Yes. We work regularly with strata managers and body corporates responsible for multiple buildings. We can audit individual buildings as required or set up an ongoing compliance schedule across your entire portfolio so nothing slips through. If you manage multiple buildings and want one consistent, reliable auditor across all of them, contact us to talk through how we would structure that.
