Why Might You Need a 48-Hour Fire Risk Assessment?
There are many situations where a fire risk assessment is required at short notice. Our priority service is designed to help businesses, landlords and responsible persons meet urgent compliance deadlines without compromising on quality.
Common reasons include:
Enforcement action – You've been contacted by the Fire and Rescue Service and need to demonstrate compliance promptly.
Insurance requirements – Your insurer has requested an up-to-date fire risk assessment before providing or renewing cover.
Business opening – You're preparing to open a new premises and need a fire risk assessment before trading.
Commercial lease or property purchase – A solicitor, managing agent or lender has requested evidence of fire safety compliance.
Licensing applications – A fire risk assessment is required as part of a premises licence, HMO licence or other regulatory application.
Local authority request – A council or housing authority has asked for a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment.
Expired or missing assessment – Your existing assessment is out of date, or one cannot be located.
Last-minute cancellation – Another assessor has cancelled or cannot meet your required timescale.
New management responsibility – You've recently taken over responsibility for a property and require an immediate assessment.
Following building alterations – Significant changes to the layout, occupancy or use of the building mean the existing fire risk assessment is no longer suitable.
Priority Service Pricing
Our 48-Hour Priority Fire Risk Assessment Service is a premium offering and is therefore priced higher than our standard service.
The additional fee reflects the flexibility required to rearrange existing commitments, provide out-of-hours or evening appointments where necessary, and prioritise the completion of your assessment and report within an accelerated timeframe.
When you request a quotation, we'll confirm:
-
Our earliest available appointment.
-
Whether your property is suitable for the 48-hour service.
-
The fixed fee before any work is undertaken.
-
The expected timescale for both the inspection and report delivery.
There are no hidden charges, and all quotations are tailored to the size, complexity and location of your property.
​
Subject to assessor availability. The 48-hour period begins once the quotation has been accepted and all required property information has been received. Complex or high-rise buildings may require additional time.
