Fire Inspections in Ottawa

Since 1985, Ottawa Fire Safety has confidently assisted the local Ottawa community with Fire Inspections, Fire Inspection Reports, Fire Code Reviews and ultimately Fire Retrofits.

Our expert fire inspector has experience with restaurants, residential buildings, duplexes, triplexes, apartment complexes, office buildings, malls, plazas and more.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

What is a fire inspection?

A fire inspection is a systematic evaluation of a building or property to assess its compliance with the Ontario Fire Code. During an inspection, Ottawa Fire Safety will examine various aspects of your property such as fire safety systems, fire separations, emergency exits and more.

​​

Circumstances where fire code inspections are beneficial:

Before occupying / buying / selling buildings

Before purchasing property, it is highly recommended to conduct a fire inspection to ensure compliance with fire safety codes and to safeguard both your investment and the safety of the premises.

Renovations or additions

A thorough inspection is often beneficial when making significant changes to a building, such as adding new structures or modifying existing ones, to ensure safety and compliance with regulations.

Building Change of Use

If the building's purpose changes (example: from residential to commercial, convert a 3 unit building into a 4 unit building), a fire inspection may be required to assess safety measures.

Insurance requirements

Some insurance policies require periodic fire inspections to maintain coverage or lower premiums.

The benefits of an OFS fire inspection

Our fire inspection report will provide a comprehensive overview of any fire code deficiencies present in the building.

 

This detailed assessment serves as valuable information especially for property buyers, looking to ensure that all aspects of fire safety and compliance are thoroughly addressed. Our report will equip you with the critical information needed to make informed decisions and avoid potential legal and safety issues in the future.
