A professional fire risk assessment is an important part of maintaining effective fire safety arrangements within any premises where people may be at risk. It examines potential fire hazards, considers who could be affected and reviews the precautions in place to reduce the likelihood of fire and support safe evacuation.
At Safe I.S., we carry out professional fire risk assessments throughout Southchurch, working with businesses, landlords, property managers and other responsible persons across commercial, residential and public premises.

If you're responsible for a building in Southchurch, you may have questions about your legal obligations, what an assessment involves and when your fire safety arrangements should be reviewed. Here are some of the questions we commonly receive.
1. Is a fire risk assessment a legal requirement?
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. How long does a fire risk assessment take?
The duration varies depending on the premises. Size, layout, occupancy, complexity and the activities taking place can all affect how much time is required to complete the assessment properly.
3. What will happen if problems are identified?
Our report will clearly identify significant findings and provide prioritised recommendations for appropriate action. We can also explain the findings so that you understand the risks and the improvements that may be required.
4. How often should my fire risk assessment be reviewed?
There is no single review interval that applies to every premises. Assessments should be reviewed regularly and whenever significant changes occur that could affect fire safety, including changes to the building, occupancy, activities or existing precautions.
5. What does BAFE SP205 accreditation mean?
BAFE SP205 is a third-party certification scheme for organisations providing fire risk assessment services. Safe I.S. is accredited under the scheme as a Fire Risk Assessment Specialist.
