Fire Risk Assessments
North London

A fire risk assessment in London is the process of conducting a competent inspection on your premises in order to uncover fire hazards. Our fire risk assessment significantly reduces the likelihood of a fire and the destruction that results. Additionally, you will be able to establish that you took "reasonable precautions" to prevent a fire in accordance with the 2005 Order.

 

The requirement to conduct a fire risk assessment is ongoing. This means that employers must regularly keep their fire safety policies up to date. For example, this could be due to a move, an increase in the workforce, a building extension, or the installation of new machinery. Whatever the reason for the business change, you must ensure that your fire risk assessment is also updated to reflect the changes. This obligation to update your fire safety policies and conduct a competent fire risk assessment is enshrined in law. Failure to comply with the 2005 Order may result in significant fines.

 

Our engineer can conduct a fire risk assessment based on the following factors:

 

• The distinguishing features of your building, such as its layout and construction

• The requirements of your building's visitors or residents, such as elderly residents in a nursing home, as well as the use of your building

• Storage of flammable materials

• Staff education 

• Fire protection technology, such as fire extinguishers and fire alarms

 

A written record of your fire risk assessment must be kept and updated regularly. If you have more than five employees on your premises, you must document significant findings. Metro-Pat 247 Limited is required to implement a document management system (DMS) under the BAFE SP 203 scheme, which means these requirements will be met.

 

Our engineer will provide a comprehensive written report.

 

Our engineer will schedule a visit to your location to conduct the fire risk assessment on-site. A physical inspection of your property will be performed, and any fire hazards will be documented in a written report. Our engineer will also review your fire safety strategy in terms of evacuation in the event of a fire and staff fire safety training. The fire alarm and fire extinguishers will be visually inspected as well. If additional equipment testing is deemed necessary, our engineer will notify you.
