Electricity House 

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Bristol's city centre stands the grand Electricity House, meticulously restored to its former glory by Crest Nicholson, a renowned developer committed to preserving its iconic art deco charm.

​

Originally envisioned by the esteemed architect Sir Giles Gilbert Scott, this Grade II-listed gem resides within a cherished conservation area. Now reborn, it boasts a captivating blend of 85 opulent apartments and versatile commercial spaces, seamlessly marrying heritage with modern luxury.

​

Peak, entrusted with safeguarding this architectural treasure, embarked on a comprehensive review of its fire strategy. Leveraging cutting-edge Riskbase software, we meticulously documented every fire precautionary measure, crafting a dynamic fire risk management tool vital for building oversight and the substantiation of its safety protocols.

​

Furthermore, our accredited Fire Door Surveyors conducted a thorough examination of both communal and residential areas. A key aspect of this endeavour was our proactive engagement with residents, facilitating convenient access to assess their flat entrance doors. Utilising various communication channels such as letters, dedicated phone lines, and calling cards, we ensured seamless coordination with residents to arrange inspections at their convenience.

​

Employing state-of-the-art QR Coding technology in collaboration with Riskbase, we meticulously tagged each door, enabling instant retrieval of its comprehensive history. This facilitated swift assessments, allowing our experts to review specifications and conduct condition checks efficiently. Recommendations for any necessary remedial work could then be promptly implemented, ensuring optimal safety standards throughout the premises.
