Fire Risk Assessments

Professional fire risk assessments helping landlords, managing agents, and businesses understand responsibilities, reduce risk, and maintain compliant buildings safely.

Clear Risk Understanding

Structured fire risk assessments help landlords and organisations identify hazards, understand legal duties, and implement practical fire safety improvements.

Fire Risk Assessments
(RRFSO 2005)

A structured fire risk assessment designed to meet the requirements of the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005. This service supports landlords, property managers, and commercial duty holders responsible for maintaining safe premises. It identifies fire hazards, reviews existing control measures, and evaluates evacuation provisions. The assessment solves uncertainty around compliance and provides a clear, defensible report outlining practical recommendations that improve safety.

Residential & Care Assessments

Within residential and care environments, fire risk requires careful consideration due to building layout and occupant vulnerability. This service supports housing providers, landlords and care operators responsible for multi-occupancy buildings. It includes residential blocks, HMOs, supported accommodation and care environments, helping organisations manage fire safety responsibly while protecting occupants and maintaining compliance.

Residential Block Fire Risk Assessments

The consultancy was created to provide clear, proportionate fire safety advice without installation bias. By focusing exclusively on assessment and advisory services, organisations receive balanced recommendations that prioritise life safety and compliance. Clients benefit from independent expertise designed to help landlords, managing agents, and businesses make confident fire safety decisions.

Fire Risk Intelligence

Fire risk intelligence provides insight into how evolving regulations and complex building factors influence fire safety within premises. This service supports organisations responsible for higher-risk or complex buildings where multiple risk elements interact. It considers compartmentation, fire door performance, hazardous substances, building alterations and governance responsibilities, helping organisations identify emerging risks early and implement proportionate, defensible fire safety improvements.

Commercial Fire Risk Assessments

Commercial premises must maintain compliant fire safety arrangements for employees, visitors, and contractors. This fire risk assessment service supports business owners and duty holders responsible for offices, retail premises, warehouses, and mixed-use properties. The inspection reviews ignition sources, storage risks, detection systems, and escape routes. It solves the challenge of understanding compliance obligations and provides clear recommendations that improve safety.

Fire Risk Assessments
for HMOs

Where multiple occupants share a property, fire safety management becomes significantly more complex. This fire risk assessment service supports landlords and property managers responsible for Houses in Multiple Occupation. The assessment examines escape routes, fire doors, detection systems, and tenant awareness arrangements. It solves uncertainty around licensing expectations and provides practical recommendations that help ensure residents remain protected.

Protecting Critical Barriers

Ensuring fire doors and compartmentation systems perform effectively, helping organisations maintain safe escape routes and protect occupants during fire incidents.

Fire Door Inspections

Fire door inspections assess the condition, compliance and performance of door sets forming part of a building’s passive fire protection system. This service supports organisations, landlords and managing agents responsible for maintaining safe escape routes. Inspections identify defects such as damaged seals, incorrect installation, poor maintenance and non-compliance, helping ensure fire doors perform effectively and support life safety during fire incidents.

Passive Fire Protection Reviews

Passive fire protection plays a vital role in preventing fire spread within buildings. This review examines compartmentation, structural fire protection and fire-resisting construction. Designed for property owners, developers and managing agents, the review identifies potential weaknesses or deterioration in protective systems and provides guidance that supports long-term building safety.
