Fire evacuation plans for Croydon buildings

Croydon has more tall residential buildings than any other outer London borough, including a large number of 1960s and 1970s towers and several office-to-residential permitted development conversions where the original fire strategy no longer matches how the building is used.

A clear evacuation strategy your occupants can follow and your staff can rehearse, with the personal plans, resident notices, signage guidance and drill routine that turn a document into something that actually works on the night.

More about our fire evacuation plan service →

Strategy that suits the building

Simultaneous, phased or stay put, with the reasoning recorded rather than assumed.

PEEPs for those who need them

Person-centred plans where a resident or member of staff cannot evacuate unaided.

Notices and signage

Print-ready resident and staff action notices, plus a signage schedule keyed to the layout.

Drills you can evidence

Scenarios, frequency and a recording template so your team can run and prove drills themselves.

Fire safety enforcement in Croydon

Enforcement of the Fire Safety Order here sits with London Fire Brigade, which audits premises and communal areas and can issue informal notification letters, enforcement notices or, in serious cases, prohibition notices restricting use of the building.

The council’s housing team also has powers over hazards in residential property under the Housing Act 2004, and licences HMOs in the area. If you have received correspondence from either, send it to us with your quote request and we will work to the deadline in it.

Information for guidance only. We are not affiliated with London Fire Brigade or Croydon Council.

Had a letter or a notice?

Enforcement work is prioritised. Tell us the deadline when you get in touch and we’ll tell you honestly whether we can meet it before you commit to anything.

Fire evacuation plan questions in Croydon

How much is an evacuation plan in Croydon?

From £225 for a single premises or small block, and from £450 for a block with PEEPs up to 30 flats. There is no travel charge in Croydon.

Do I need PEEPs for a block in Croydon?

Where a resident cannot evacuate unaided, a person-centred plan is expected. We advise on what is reasonable and proportionate for your building and how to keep it current.

Is a stay put strategy still acceptable?

It depends entirely on the building, because stay put relies on compartmentation performing as designed. If the assessment casts doubt on that, the strategy has to be revisited and we will say so plainly.
