Fire Risk Assessment

Protecting Your Business with Expert Fire Safety Services.

Fire safety is a legal requirement and a vital responsibility for every business and property owner. At FireCare, we provide professional Fire Risk Assessments and a comprehensive fire safety plan, ensuring your premises remain compliant, protected, and prepared for any fire-related risks.

Risk Assessment

What is a Fire Risk Assessment?

A Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is a structured evaluation of a building’s fire hazards, risks, and safety measures. It helps to identify potential fire hazards, assess the likelihood of a fire occurring, and determine the best actions to minimise risks and ensure safety.

Our certified fire risk assessors conduct detailed inspections to ensure your premises comply with The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, giving you confidence that your property, staff, and visitors are protected.

How Our Fire Risk Assessment Works

We follow a five-step process to ensure every aspect of fire safety is covered:

Identify Fire Hazards

→ Sources of ignition (electrical faults, heating systems, open flames)
→ Flammable materials (paper, chemicals, furniture)
→ Structural risks (poor ventilation, blocked exits)

Identify People at Risk

→ Employees, customers, or visitors
→ Vulnerable individuals (elderly, disabled, or young children)
→ People working in high-risk areas

Evaluate, Remove, or Reduce Risks

→ Assess how likely a fire is to start
→ Determine the potential impact on people and property
→ Recommend necessary safety measures

Record Findings & Implement Safety Measures

→ A full, legally compliant Fire Risk Assessment report
→ Clear recommendations for fire protection improvements
→ Emergency planning and fire evacuation procedures

Review & Update Regularly

→ Annual assessments to ensure ongoing compliance
→ Updates when changes occur in the building or workforce
→ Continuous improvement of fire safety protocols

The following items are an essential part of the assessment:
