HMO Fire Risk Assessment
For houses in multiple occupation of any size, including licensed HMOs. We check escape routes, fire doors, alarm and detection, and the conditions on your HMO licence.
If you own, manage or control a non-domestic building, or the communal areas of a block of flats or HMO, UK law requires you to have a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment. Fire Safety Risk Assessment (FSRA) makes that simple. Our qualified fire risk assessors visit your premises, identify the fire hazards and the people at risk, and give you a clear, prioritised action plan you can act on straight away.
We work with private landlords, HMO owners, letting and managing agents, housing providers and businesses of every size, from a single shop to a multi-site portfolio. Most clients are booked in within one working day and receive their fire risk assessment report within 24 hours of the visit.
With years of expertise in the fire safety industry, our experienced assessors can perform comprehensive inspections, identify hazards, and provide effective solutions to reduce fire risks. We understand the complexity of many types of properties — from commercial premises to residential accommodations — and provide evaluations that are thorough yet straightforward to understand.
Every building is different, so every assessment is tailored to its layout, use and occupants.

At Fire Safety Risk Assessment, we provide a complete service to safeguard your facilities, people, and assets from the terrible repercussions of fire. We focus on detecting possible fire threats, implementing safety measures, and providing on-going assistance to keep your environment safe. Here’s what you can expect if you use our service:
Our first step is to conduct a full inspection of your property for any potential fire threats. Fires require three elements to work: heat, fuel, and oxygen. During our inspection, we look for ignition sources such as heaters, open flames, and electrical equipment, as well as fuel-containing things such as packing, furniture, and trash. This detailed investigation includes both the inside and outside of your home, ensuring that no possible hazards go unnoticed.
In the case of a fire, everyone on and around your property comes under threat. Our service involves identifying those who may be at a higher risk during an emergency. We evaluate the specific requirements of workers, contractors, visitors, and the general public, with a focus on those who may require particular help, such as the disabled, aged, or those unfamiliar with the facility. Knowing who is at danger, and who is in more danger than others allows us to help you implement specific safety measures to safeguard everyone on your facilities.
Once all possible fire hazards and at-risk people have been identified, we will assess the risks and establish an action plan. Our objective is to lower the risk of fire by addressing the identified dangers. This involves measures such as isolating flammable objects from possible ignition sources and protecting fuel supplies to avoid arson, among others. In addition, we help our clients in implementing fire safety measures, such as installing smoke detectors and assuring the availability of well-maintained fire extinguishers. We will also ensure that your helpful measures such as clear and obvious escape pathways, safety signage, and working exit mechanisms such as push bars and pads, are in place in the building, because these facilities are required for a quick and safe evacuation. If these measures are already in place, we’ll check them to ensure they’re properly functional and efficient; if not, then we’ll make recommendations on how to remedy the situation.
Proper documentation is a big part of efficient fire safety management. As part of our service, we will maintain complete documented records of the fire risk assessments, and the steps taken to minimize fire risks.
Detailed records will be needed for legal compliance, particularly if you employ five or more people, but that is not all they’re good for. They also act as important evidence that your company is serious about and proactive in managing fire safety, proactive in enforcing it.
Our fire safety experts collaborate with you all the way to come up with a clear, practical fire prevention and response strategy, which is subsequently distributed to everyone on the premises. We also provide the appropriate training, such as frequent fire drills and specific training for designated fire wardens or marshals, to ensure that the inhabitants or staff are ready to mount a swift and accurate response to a fire outbreak.
Fire safety is a continuous responsibility. We make sure that your Fire Safety Risk Assessment is evaluated and updated on a regular basis to reflect any over-time changes in your property, or activities.
This proactive strategy enables us to spot new threats immediately, and make changes to your fire safety plan. If any substantial changes occur, we make sure that all stakeholders on the premises are notified, and retrained as needed to maintain a high level of preparation.By choosing us, you get more than just a one-time assessment; you’re teaming-up with a staff dedicated to your long-term safety. Our professional approach ensures that all aspects of fire safety are properly handled and nothing of note is overlooked, giving you peace of mind that your property and its inhabitants are safe.
