A fire risk assessment is an important part of managing fire safety within non-domestic premises, helping identify potential hazards, consider who may be exposed to risk and determine whether appropriate precautions are in place. Regular review is also essential because changes to a building, its use, occupancy or fire safety arrangements can affect the risks present.
At Safe I.S., we provide professional fire risk assessments throughout Fleet, helping responsible persons gain a clear understanding of the fire risks within their premises and the measures needed to manage them. Our experienced assessors take a practical, property-specific approach, considering the building itself, its activities, occupancy, escape arrangements and existing fire safety provisions.
Our fire risk assessors are registered on the National Fire Risk Assessors Register (NFRAR) at Intermediate or Advanced level, with competence independently verified against defined criteria. Safe I.S. is also third-party accredited to BAFE SP205 as a Fire Risk Assessment Specialist, providing additional assurance when choosing a competent fire risk assessment provider.

Fleet combines an established town centre with substantial employment areas and a strong business community. The High Street and Fleet Road provide a mixture of shops, cafés, restaurants, professional services and other commercial premises, while Fleet's railway station provides an important connection to London and surrounding towns. The town is also known for its proximity to Fleet Pond, a significant local natural asset and Site of Special Scientific Interest, which sits alongside established residential and commercial areas.
Fleet's business landscape extends beyond the town centre, with employment locations including Fleet Business Park and Ancells Business Park close to the M3 corridor. The wider area also includes Elvetham Heath, Church Crookham and Crookham Village, with offices, industrial and commercial premises, schools, healthcare facilities, hospitality businesses and community buildings spread across the area. As premises are refurbished, extended or adapted for new uses, maintaining an up-to-date fire risk assessment helps ensure fire safety arrangements continue to reflect the building's current circumstances.

Understanding your fire safety responsibilities can help you manage risks effectively and recognise when your arrangements need to be reviewed. Here are answers to some common questions about fire risk assessments.
1. Is a fire risk assessment a legal requirement in Fleet?
For most non-domestic premises covered by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, a fire risk assessment is required. It should identify relevant fire hazards, people who may be at risk and the measures needed to prevent fire and protect occupants.
2. What areas are examined during a fire risk assessment?
The assessment considers significant fire hazards, sources of ignition and fuel, people who may be exposed to risk, escape routes, fire detection and warning arrangements, emergency lighting, firefighting equipment, fire doors and other relevant fire safety measures.
3. How often does a fire risk assessment need to be reviewed?
There is no single review interval that applies to every premises. The assessment should be reviewed regularly and whenever there is reason to believe it is no longer valid, including following significant changes to the building, its use or occupancy.
4. Should I review my assessment after refurbishment or alterations?
Yes, where alterations could affect fire safety. Changes to the layout, escape routes, compartmentation, occupancy, activities or fire protection measures can alter the risks within a building and may mean the existing assessment needs to be updated.
5. What should happen if significant fire risks are identified?
The assessment report will explain the findings and provide practical recommendations for addressing identified issues. These can then be incorporated into your wider fire safety management arrangements.
