Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment?
Fire Risk Assessments are required for a wide range of properties and entities, including:
Landlords, business owners, and occupiers.
Tenants and property managers.
Public spaces such as schools, construction sites, theatres, and cinemas.
Care homes, pubs, and houses in multiple occupancy (HMOs).
What We Do
Our professional Fire Risk Assessment services include:
Identifying Fire Hazards: Assess potential sources of fire, ignition, and fuel.
Implementing Effective Controls: Recommend measures to eliminate or reduce fire risks.
Emergency Plan Development: Create a clear plan to ensure everyone’s safety during a fire.
Compliance Communication: Ensure fire risk assessment findings and plans are communicated to all employees, occupants, and visitors.
Why Professional Fire Risk Assessment Services are Important
Hiring professional fire risk assessment services guarantees that each possible hazard is properly identified, documented, and tackled with the latest legal standards. Though a few companies try DIY assessments, only trained professionals can bring the advanced technical expertise, neutrality, and legal authority necessary — particularly for high-risk settings like care homes, industrial premises, or multi-storey residential buildings.
Our surveyors are equipped to assess both open and concealed fire hazards, such as out-of-date electrical installations, stored combustibles left unsecured, or obstructed means of escape. Through the use of professional fire risk assessment solutions, companies can rest assured and noticeably minimize the possibility of an occurrence.
The SEITECH Method to Fire Service Risk Assessment
Our fire service risk assessment methodology combines operational experience with industry best practices. We use a five-step system that addresses all risk factors and ensures that they are documented and dealt with:
1. Discover fire hazards (sources of ignition, fuel, and oxygen).
2. Identify individuals at risk (including vulnerable people or night shift workers).
3. Assess, eliminate, and minimize risks by adopting sensible control measures.
4. Record results and develop an effective emergency plan.
5. Review and update assessments regularly, particularly following major changes to premises or staff.
This procedure guarantees that you not only satisfy UK legislation but also establish a culture of positive safety.
