Know Your Risks, and What to Do About Them

A fire risk assessment looks at how a fire could start in your building, who would be at risk and how they would get out. It is the document everything else in fire safety is built on.

We walk the whole premises, then give you a written assessment with a list of actions in order of priority. We can also help you write or update your evacuation plan.

If the assessment finds work to do, the same team can carry it out, from alarms and extinguishers to staff training.
