WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

Firecorp have carried out numerous projects for King and Moffatt and on my projects personally, I Have no negative feedback only positive, King and Moffatt and Firecorp have the same work ethic, first and foremost to get the job done to the highest possible standards and to work closely with our clients to ensure the project gets completed on time, and safely.

Paul Griffiths, Contract Manager, King & Moffatt Ltd

Following the recent completion of Winwood Heights in Nottingham I’d just like to thank Jake and the team at Firecorp for their assistance in driving the project through to completion. Following the demise of the Mechanical and Electrical Contractor along with their Fire and Security division towards the end of the scheme Firecorp were appointed to complete the remaining works and assist us as Main Contractor to achieve a tight completion date on an already challenging project. Firecorp were critical to the success of the scheme and achieving the desired completion date and, along with their support post-completion they have supported both us and the Customer in delivering a successful scheme.

Cogent have been in partnership with Firecorp Secure Solutions Ltd for almost 3 years. These have been on some difficult projects, where their technical assistance and professionalism in working alongside the main client – not only in there install works, but, throughout preconstruction design works has been excellent.
There communication skills have also been excellent, working alongside and liaising with both Electrical & Mechanical engineers to achieve a positive output on all disciplines. Any task put forward to Firecorp engineers has been carried out with the highest skilled approach.
Their time keeping and keeping up to date with the latest health and safety regulations has also been carried out throughout all projects to a very high standard.
We would recommend Firecorp on any size project put forward through preconstruction until the completion where all certification is produced.
