Poor Service

Very disappointing experience on the 2nd time around. After chasing me to get me Fire Risk Assessment booked in because the previous one was about to expire, ( or more than one occasion unnecessarily). They then tried to charge me for things that are not needed on a risk assessment and i had to be firm with them as i work in property so knew they were just touting for business. I have today received the certificate nearly 3 months after the report was carried out. This was very disappointing especially as i had to continually chase the report . I would not recommend i had a client with a block of 16 flats i could of referred but obviously didn't.

Where’s the refund?

We booked an appointment and paid on 20th Jan. The engineer didn’t turn up and nobody notified us about the issue.The staff agreed to refund us but after 2 months we still haven’t received the refund. Never received any response from them 1 month ago.

Fire Risk Assessment: Understanding the Basics

Acil-Aydinlatma

A fire risk assessment is a systematic process of evaluating the potential fire hazards within a building or premises, assessing the level of risk these hazards pose, and implementing measures to mitigate these risks. The primary objective of a fire risk assessment is to enhance fire safety and minimize the likelihood of a fire occurring, as well as ensuring that if a fire does happen, it can be safely managed, and occupants can evacuate without harm.

Why Do You Need a Fire Risk Assessment Certificate?

  1. Legal Requirement: In many countries, including the UK, it is a legal requirement to conduct a fire risk assessment for certain types of premises. In the UK, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 mandates that a responsible person for a non-domestic premises must ensure a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is carried out and reviewed regularly.

  2. Life Safety: The foremost reason for obtaining a fire risk assessment certificate is to protect the lives of occupants and visitors to your premises. Fire risk assessments identify potential hazards, assess their risks, and recommend measures to reduce the risk of fire-related injuries or fatalities.

  3. Property Protection: Fire risk assessments also aim to protect property from fire damage. By identifying and mitigating fire hazards, you reduce the likelihood of extensive damage to your building and assets.

  4. Liability: As a responsible person or building owner, you have a duty of care to provide a safe environment for occupants and visitors. Failing to conduct a fire risk assessment and implement necessary safety measures could result in legal liability if a fire-related incident occurs.

  5. Insurance Requirements: Many insurance companies require proof of a valid fire risk assessment before providing coverage for your property. Failing to have this assessment could lead to insurance complications and may affect your ability to make claims in the event of a fire.

  6. Regulatory Compliance: Complying with fire safety regulations is not just a legal obligation; it also demonstrates your commitment to maintaining a safe environment. Non-compliance can result in fines, penalties, and potential legal action.

  7. Peace of Mind: Knowing that your premises have undergone a thorough fire risk assessment and have appropriate safety measures in place provides peace of mind for both you as the responsible person and for the occupants of the building.

  8. Continuous Improvement: Fire risk assessments are not a one-time task. They need to be reviewed and updated regularly to account for changes in the building, its use, or fire safety regulations. This ongoing process helps ensure that fire safety measures remain effective.

In conclusion, a fire risk assessment is a vital tool for enhancing fire safety in your premises. It is a legal requirement in many jurisdictions and provides peace of mind, protects lives, property, and ensures compliance with regulations. Obtaining a fire risk assessment certificate is not just a matter of fulfilling legal obligations but is essential for the overall safety and well-being of everyone who interacts with your premises.
