Fire Risk Assessment in Luton

A fire risk assessment is a careful look at your building. It finds what could start a fire, who could be hurt and how people would get out safely.

It then lists what you should do to lower the risk. The findings must be written down. Keep the report safe and ready to show the fire service.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all non-domestic premises need one. That covers shops, offices, takeaways, warehouses and other workplaces.

It also covers the shared parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, such as hallways, stairs and landings. The person in control of the building, often the owner or landlord, is responsible for it.

We walk through the whole building. We look at fire alarms, smoke detectors, emergency lighting, fire doors and escape routes.

We also look for things that could start a fire, like old wiring, heaters, cooking areas and stored rubbish. Your report lists each problem in order of priority, so you know what to fix first.

Review your fire risk assessment every year. Do it sooner if the layout or use changes, or more people live or work there.

We can carry out the review and test your fire alarm and emergency lighting on the same visit.
