We can remove the stress of undertaking a fire risk
assessment by providing a consultant who is suitably
experienced and competent in your specific industry
sector.
After working alongside your responsible persons, our
consultants will produce a fire risk assessment report
which includes detailed records of the significant
findings, a clear, concise, and prioritised action plan
detailing recommended actions, and a full assessment of
risk and hazard areas in the building.
Easy To Understand Fire Risk Assessment Report.
Following the on-site assessment, a detailed report is compiled and validated, outlining key findings and recommendations. This report is then shared with you, guiding you through necessary actions.
We pride ourselves on being able to produce extremely high quality and detailed reports on your timeframe requirements.
The assessments we create are designed for clarity, incorporating images and diagrams as needed. Additionally, your assessor will be available to address any further questions or concerns you may have.
Is A Fire Risk Assessment A Legal Requirement?
It is mandatory by law for the ‘Responsible Person’ to record the findings of the fire risk assessment, including any action taken or action still to be taken.
As of the 1st of October 2023, the Building Safety Act 2022 came into effect with Section 156 amending the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, setting the requirement for all fire risk assessments to be recorded irrespective of the number of employees or whether there is a license in force.

Do I need to review my current risk assessment?
As the responsible person you must carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment of the premises.
If you are responsible for a building, for example a employer, owner or occupier of premises that aren't a 'single private dwelling' (a private home), you need to make sure a suitably competent person completes a Fire Risk Assessment.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 - ARTICLE 9 PART 3 - 'Any such assessment must be reviewed by the responsible person regularly so as to keep it up to date'.
We recommend you should review your fire safety risk assessment annually (12months) to ensure your compliance with the regulatory reform (fire safety) order 2005 or sooner if:
-
Alterations are made to the structure of the building.
-
Personnel numbers increase significantly.
-
There has been a change in the use of premises.
-
Anything else that could impact the fire safety within the building.
