Case study
Derwent Fire Compliance
Derwent Fire Compliance carries out fire risk assessments, fire safety advice and fire warden training from Belper, across Derbyshire, Staffordshire and Nottinghamshire. We built a new website that explains plainly who needs an assessment, shows the credentials up front and makes it quick to ask for a quote.

The brief
Serious work, explained simply.
Fire safety law can feel confusing, and people choosing an assessor want to know they're in safe hands. The site needed to look professional and modern, and answer the question most visitors have: does this apply to me?
- Credentials first. Membership and register badges sit right under the headline, shown exactly as issued.
- A calm, confident look. Deep navy with a soft blue glow, and the Derwent logo picked out in blue.
- Plain English. Short sentences and no jargon, with the law explained in a few lines.
- Quick to contact. A quote button always in reach, and the phone number up front.
Does the law apply to you?
Pick your property, see the answer.
Visitors choose their type of property, from holiday lets and HMOs to offices, factories, schools, shops and charities, and see straight away who's responsible and what applies.
It turns a dense piece of law into a ten-second answer, then leads straight to a quote.
Showing what you get
No surprises about the report.
An example action log shows the kind of findings and priorities a report contains, so clients know exactly what they're paying for.
A four-step process, real client reviews and a set of common questions build trust before anyone picks up the phone.
