I am pleased to provide this reference for Steve Dilloway, who I have had the opportunity to work with on a number of projects in their capacity as a fire assessor and more.

Throughout the projects we have worked together on, Steve has consistently demonstrated a thorough and professional approach to fire risk assessment and fire safety. He has shown a strong understanding of the relevant legislation, guidance and practical requirements, while also being able to apply his knowledge effectively to real-world building situations.

I have particularly valued his ability to identify fire safety issues, and situations, assess the associated risks and provide a very clear understanding of the requirements to complete the practical recommendations. He communicates very well with all of his clients, contractors and other professionals and is willing to discuss technical matters constructively to achieve an appropriate and proportionate solution. His attitude to fire safety knows no boundaries. In my experience, Steve is very reliable, knowledgeable and very professional in his approach. He takes his responsibilities very seriously and with the considered advice, provides a very clear focus on improving fire safety and managing the risks in several different environments. I have found Steve to be very approachable, very demonstrative, very professional, very professional, and I have no hesitation in working with him again on future projects, or recommending on future fire risk assessments, or fire safety work.

I am pleased to provide this reference for Veritas, with whom we have worked closely for approximately three years.

During this time, Veritas have supported us across a wide range of projects, including educational establishments, commercial premises and domestic/residential properties. Throughout our relationship, we have found them to be highly professional, knowledgeable and dependable, with a strong understanding of the practical requirements associated with fire safety and compliance.

Veritas have regularly provided expert guidance and worked collaboratively with our team to develop bespoke and practical fire safety solutions, particularly where properties have presented complex or non-standard requirements. Their involvement has covered a broad range of fire safety measures, including fire doors and fire stopping, emergency lighting, fire alarm systems, fire safety signage and evacuation plans.
