What Our Fire Risk Assessment Covers
Our fire risk assessments follow a proven five-step process, fully aligned with government guidance.
We start by identifying all potential fire hazards within your property — including ignition sources, fuel, and oxygen. Next, we assess who could be at risk, from tenants and visitors to more vulnerable individuals, and evaluate how they might be affected in the event of a fire.
We then review the effectiveness of your current fire safety measures, such as alarms, extinguishers, escape routes, signage, lighting, and fire doors.
After the assessment, you’ll receive a comprehensive written report outlining our findings, risk rating, and a clear action plan. This details any improvements needed to reduce risk and ensure compliance — whether that’s upgrading fire detection systems, improving fire separation, or confirming safe emergency exits. If your property already meets all safety standards, your report will confirm full compliance for insurance, audit, and legal purposes.
Our qualified and insured assessors have extensive experience working with residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties. We stay fully up to date with the latest legislation and building safety codes, giving you confidence and peace of mind that your property is protected.
Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment?
Any property that’s rented out or used for business purposes must have an up-to-date fire risk assessment in place. As a landlord, HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) owner, letting agent, housing association, or building manager, it’s your legal duty to ensure that a valid fire risk assessment has been completed and regularly reviewed. For HMOs and apartment buildings, communal or shared areas must also be assessed. Ignoring these requirements can lead to penalties, enforcement notices, or even criminal prosecution.
You might also need a fire risk assessment when applying for or renewing an HMO licence, updating your property insurance, preparing for a local authority inspection, or addressing a tenant’s safety concern. Additionally, if your property’s layout changes — for example, after a loft conversion or adding new occupants — it’s strongly advised to carry out a new assessment.

Steps to Conduct an Assessment
Now, let’s break down the key steps involved in carrying out a comprehensive fire risk assessment in London. The process begins with identifying risks—a careful examination of the property to pinpoint any potential fire hazards. This includes assessing the physical environment as well as existing safety practices to understand how risks may arise and interact with people or building systems.
After identifying the hazards, we move on to reducing or controlling those risks. This stage focuses on implementing practical measures to prevent fires, such as updating workplace procedures, upgrading fire detection and suppression systems, or improving escape routes and safety signage.
An equally important part of the assessment is keeping detailed records. Every finding, observation, and corrective action is documented, providing not only a legal record but also a valuable reference for maintaining safety and guiding future reviews.
