Fire Engineer Reports

A fire engineer report is a critical component of your building’s fire safety compliance documentation. This comprehensive document outlines the fire safety design specifications tailored to your building’s unique characteristics, ensuring that it meets the requirements set forth in the New Zealand Building Code.

At The DESIGNFIRE, our team of experienced fire engineers specialises in preparing detailed, code-compliant fire engineer reports for a wide range of building types, from multi-unit residential developments and commercial buildings to restaurant fitouts, educational facilities, and retail developments. As silver members of the Fire Protection Association NZ Inc, we adhere to the highest industry standards in all our work.

Our Proven Methodology

With strong relationships with local councils and a deep understanding of their requirements, we navigate the complexities of the approval process with ease. Our council connections and expertise have been proven to speed up project timelines, as demonstrated in major projects like the NMIT School Building and Wang Food Market developments, where our comprehensive fire engineering reports helped secure efficient approvals.

What Does a Fire Engineer Report Cover?

A fire engineer report provides a thorough assessment of your building’s fire safety requirements, taking into account factors such as:

  • Building size, layout, and occupancy type
  • Passive fire protection measures
  • Active fire protection systems
  • Means of escape and evacuation strategies
  • Firefighting access and facilities

Our fire engineers conduct a comprehensive analysis of your building, identifying potential fire risks and specifying the necessary fire safety systems and design features to mitigate those risks.

    our clients

    “There are 81 units being developed on the site; the majority of the units are terraced houses. We are proud of the scale of the project and the opportunity it brings for new home buyers to get onto the property market. We needed a fire report for our development Building Consent application.

    The site was pretty tight with lots quite near to each other; THE DESIGNFIRE was quick to respond to our enquiry and forthcome with a strategy to get the documentation together in line with our Building Consent lodgement target dates. They listened to our needs and were finding ways to make the process efficient.

    THE DESIGNFIRE was very responsive and willing to assist in clarifying matters with the structural engineer and architect to deliver their outputs. We are very happy with the result.”

    —Mante Masela, Kingston Property

    “My name is Farzbod Taefi. I am the director of Skills Update Training Institute. About five years ago, in conjunction with NMIT, we purchased a site on 42 Upper Queen Street. This building needed a lot of renovation and make-over.

    We found them very flexible and receptive to our comments and ideas. I think it was the winning card for us as the client. Getting the permits through the council is not an easy task. They had good contacts in the council, they were well known to the council, and that really speeded up the process. I think if we’ve chosen another group, this project may have taken twice as long. We have recommended THE DESIGNFIRE to many people and referred them to Louie. You know the sample of his work is here, and people can see what they can get.”

    “THE DESIGNFIRE and their team of various expertise helped us to complete our Complex commercial building, involving multi-tenancy occupancy. THE DESIGNFIRE team came up with a resolution which was cost-effective and workable. Without THE DESIGNFIRE, we would have a difficult time completing it.”

    —Paul Singh, Director, APL Windows

    “With a long relationship with THE DESIGNFIRE, they have a strong background on fire engineering as well as precise design and consultation. Happy working with them and willing to do other projects together again.”

    “Louie has been a precious asset in developing fire engineering for our second dwelling project. His price was very reasonable, his communication prompt and helpful. I would recommend him and use his services again.”
