Fire Risk Assessment

Service Details

Fire Risk Assesment

As a business or commercial property owner, you have a responsibility to ensure your property is fully protected from the threat of fire by carrying out a regular fire risk assessment.

The Fire Safety Order (FSO) applies to all non-domestic premises in England and Wales. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 came into effect in October 2006 replacing over 70 pieces of fire safety law. The order applies to common parts of blocks of flats and houses in multiple occupations (HMOs).

What is a fire risk assessment?

A fire risk assessment is a detailed, step-by-step process whereby your building and on-site activities are reviewed in order to determine where risks are with regard to fire hazards. Where fire risks are identified, actions should be planned to help reduce incidents from occurring in the future. 

We can carry out a full fire audit, along with ongoing fire risk assessment guidance, with a comprehensive report that will:

  • Identify fire hazards (such as any source of ignition, dangerous substances etc.)
  • Identify who might be at risk and outline a fire action plan
  • Evaluate, then remove or reduce those risks with comprehensive fire safety measures
  • Record findings and document an emergency fire risk management plan (such as your escape route and fire alarm process)
  • Supply, install, maintain and fix all required fire safety equipment
