Professional Fire Risk Assessments for Gosport Properties
Practical Assessments Based on Your Building and Its Use
A fire risk assessment is a key part of effective fire safety management, helping identify potential hazards, consider the people who may be exposed to them and establish whether appropriate precautions are in place. Regular review is also important because changes to a building, its use, occupancy or fire safety arrangements can alter the risks present.
At Safe I.S., we provide professional fire risk assessments throughout Gosport, helping responsible persons understand the risks within their premises and the measures required to manage them. Our assessors take a practical, property-specific approach, considering the building's construction, 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.

Fire Risk Assessments Across Gosport
Supporting Fire Safety in a Historic Waterfront Community
Gosport has a distinctive identity shaped by its maritime and naval heritage, with the waterfront, historic High Street and former naval sites forming an important part of the borough. Gosport town centre includes the pedestrianised High Street and surrounding South Street area, while Royal Clarence Yard provides a mix of historic buildings, residential accommodation, commercial uses and waterfront activity. The wider waterfront also includes Haslar and Blockhouse, where marine infrastructure and employment uses remain important to the local economy. These varied buildings and uses can create different fire safety considerations, particularly where historic structures have been adapted for modern occupation.
Away from the central waterfront, Gosport includes established residential communities and employment locations extending towards Lee-on-the-Solent and the wider Solent area. Daedalus is a significant employment and enterprise location, with the site recognised for its potential to support further employment growth, while the wider borough includes schools, healthcare premises, hospitality businesses, community facilities and commercial properties. As premises are refurbished, extended or adapted for new uses, keeping fire risk assessments under review helps ensure fire safety arrangements continue to reflect current conditions.

Gosport Fire Risk Assessment FAQs
Practical Guidance for Responsible Persons and Building Managers
Understanding your fire safety responsibilities can help you manage risks effectively and recognise when existing arrangements need to be reviewed. Below are answers to some common questions about fire risk assessments.
1. Is a fire risk assessment a legal requirement in Gosport?
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 does a fire risk assessment examine?
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 should a fire risk assessment be reviewed?
There is no single review period 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 changes could affect fire safety. Alterations to the layout, escape routes, compartmentation, occupancy, activities or fire protection measures can change the risks within a building and may require the existing assessment to be reviewed.
5. What happens if the assessment identifies fire safety deficiencies?
The report will explain the issues identified and provide practical recommendations for addressing them. These findings can then be incorporated into your wider fire safety management arrangements.
