Landmarks including St Mary's Church and Saffron Walden Town Hall contribute to the town's distinctive character, while the presence of older and adapted properties makes a property-specific approach to fire safety particularly important.

Saffron Walden Fire Risk Assessment FAQs
Practical Answers for Property Owners and Responsible Persons
If you're responsible for a premises in Saffron Walden, you may have questions about your legal obligations, what an assessment involves and when it should be reviewed. Here are some of the questions we commonly receive.
1. Is a fire risk assessment legally required?
For most non-domestic premises, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment. The specific requirements depend on the nature and use of the premises.
2. What does a fire risk assessment consider?
Our assessors consider potential fire hazards, people who may be at risk, existing fire safety measures, escape arrangements and other relevant aspects of the premises. The assessment evaluates whether the existing precautions are appropriate for the building and its occupants.
3. How long will my fire risk assessment take?
There is no standard duration because every property is different. The size, complexity, layout, occupancy and activities within the premises can all affect the time required.
4. How often should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?
Fire risk assessments should be reviewed regularly and whenever significant changes could affect fire safety. This may include alterations to the building, changes in occupancy, new activities or changes to existing safety measures.
5. Should my assessment be reviewed after refurbishment?
Yes, significant building work or changes to the use of a property can alter fire risks or affect existing precautions. Reviewing the assessment following relevant changes helps ensure it continues to reflect the current condition and use of the premises.
