Grant Thornton advises Richmond Fire Engineers

Richmond Fire Engineers is a Yorkshire based Level 4 LPS 1048 approved sprinkler contractor, designing, installing and maintaining sprinkler systems throughout the UK. The business was founded in 1992 and has been under the current shareholder ownership since 2018.  Since then, Richmond Fire has experienced a significant period of growth.

Alpine Group brings together leading fire protection companies delivering advanced detection and suppression systems for complex buildings, critical infrastructure and mission-critical environments. The acquisition of Richmond Fire significantly expands Alpine’s presence in the UK market and complements its existing service offerings. 

We drew upon our extensive experience and contacts in the Fire Safety sector, with our local Yorkshire deal execution team supported by our national sector specialists. 

Our Corporate Finance team worked closely with the shareholders at every step of the deal process, preparing the business for sale and producing high-quality marketing materials. 

Our hands-on management of the project throughout the process ensured that Richmond Fire gained an excellent strategic partner who is able to support Richmond Fire through the next stage of its growth journey, and producing the best possible outcome for the shareholders.
