Effective response rescues fire-ravaged Grade 1 listed castle

Rising above the Cheshire landscape, Peckforton Castle is the last remaining medieval-style castle still intact in the UK. Built in the early 19th Century, the spectacular Grade 1 listed building has been used as a film and TV set for Robin Hood and episodes of Dr Who. Converted to an exclusive country house hotel in 1988 with 48 bedrooms, event and conference facilities, and on-site falconry, it is one of the most sought-after luxury wedding venues in the UK.

Fire Damage Restoration, Major & Complex Claims

Rapid Response Saves Music Awards After Fire

The Royal Albert Hall is one of England’s most distinctive and treasured landmarks. Situated in London, the venue hosts more than 350 events a year, from music concerts and banquets to ballet and award ceremonies. Twelve days before the MOBO (music of black origin) Awards were due to be hosted, a fire broke out in one of the venue’s bars. It was suspected that the source of the fire was an electrical fault with one of the bottle refrigerators.

Document & Specialist Restoration

University of Leeds

When libraries and archives are presented with exciting opportunities to obtain new acquisitions, it is important to ensure that incoming collections are in a suitable condition and do not pose a risk of cross-contamination to existing holdings. Checks of incoming collections should be conducted to verify that they are dry, pest-free, clean and with no evidence of historic or active fungal contamination. Without checks and intervention where needed, the new acquisition can potentially deteriorate after transfer, even in high-quality storage conditions, or even trigger pest or fungal outbreaks.

Major & Complex Claims

Battery Fire Recovery for AV Hire Company

At a hire company, a small fire occurred within one of the storage units used for storing hire equipment, including cameras, lighting, lenses, and associated audio-visual equipment. The fire was caused by the battery charging process. It is important to note that not all areas of the storage unit were affected, but some business-critical areas were affected by the fire.
