About Resilient Consult
A Wigan-based construction and compliance consultancy, set up so that clients have one accountable person for fire safety, health and safety and building work.
Adrian Heaton is the director of Resilient Consult and the person you deal with. He takes the enquiry, visits the site where it helps, agrees the scope with you, co-ordinates the people doing the work and signs off what you receive. If you have a question halfway through a job, you ask him.
The firm exists because compliance for buildings has become fragmented. Fire, health and safety and construction are usually handled by separate advisers who rarely talk to each other, and the client is left to stitch their reports together. Resilient Consult was set up to do that joining-up work properly, with one consultancy that sees the whole picture and is answerable for it.
We are open about how the work is delivered. We scope, manage and check every job ourselves. Specialist elements such as fire surveys and remedials, asbestos surveys, legionella assessments, training courses and alarm installations are carried out through vetted specialist partners who hold the relevant qualifications and third-party certification for that work. You see their certificates, and we stay your single point of contact.
What you can hold us to.
Straight answers
We tell you what the law requires, what is good practice and what is optional, and we keep those three clearly apart.
Evidence over assurance
Photographs, certificates and dated records back up everything we report, so you can show an inspector or insurer exactly what was done.
Joined-up thinking
We look at how fire, health and safety and building work affect each other, so fixing one problem does not quietly create another.
Close to home
We are based in Wigan and work across the North West, which keeps us close to the buildings and the people we look after.

Working with us
All questionsWhat does Resilient Consult do?
We are a construction and compliance consultancy covering three areas: fire safety, health and safety, and construction consultancy. That ranges from fire risk assessments and fire door inspections to COSHH assessments, CDM support, quantity surveying and building surveys. You have one point of contact who scopes the work, arranges it, checks the results and reports back, so you are not managing several separate advisers yourself.
Which areas do you cover?
We are based in Wigan and work across the North West, including Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside and Cheshire. That covers towns such as Bolton, Warrington, St Helens, Preston and Chorley, as well as Manchester and Liverpool. For larger jobs or multi-site clients we can work further afield on request. Send us the details and we will tell you straight away whether it is something we can take on.
Who actually carries out the surveys and works?
We scope, manage and check every job ourselves. Specialist parts, such as fire surveys and remedial works, asbestos surveys, legionella assessments, training and alarm installations, are carried out through vetted specialist partners who hold the relevant qualifications and third-party certification for that work. You see their certificates. We remain your single point of contact and check both the work and the paperwork before it reaches you.
What do your reports look like?
They are written in plain English with each finding located, photographed and given a clear priority. Where remedial work follows, you receive before, during and after photographs, a log of materials used and the certificates for specialist work. Long programmes come with regular progress reports. Everything is supplied digitally for you to keep, ready for your safety file, an audit or the golden thread for higher-risk buildings.
How much will it cost?
It depends on the size and type of building, the access available and what the work involves, so we do not publish set prices. Once we understand the job, we send a fixed proposal setting out exactly what is included, who will do it and what you will receive. If anything outside that scope comes up on site, we discuss it with you before any extra work goes ahead.
