Fire Risk Assessment UK – Compare Local Assessors & Get Free Quotes

Fire risk assessments are a legal requirement for most UK businesses and residential landlords under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (UK fire safety legislation). As the ‘responsible person’, you must ensure a suitable and sufficient assessment is carried out by a competent assessor – and that it is kept up to date. Failure to comply can lead to enforcement notices, fines, or even prosecution.

Fire risk assessments in the UK are governed by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (UK fire safety legislation), which places legal responsibility on the “responsible person” to identify fire hazards, protect occupants, and implement appropriate fire safety measures.

Guidance is supported by government publications such as HM Government Fire Safety Risk Assessment Guides, which vary depending on property type including offices, shops, factories, and sleeping accommodation.
