As a landlord of a multi-occupancy property, ensuring communal areas meet fire safety standards is a legal requirement. A fire risk assessment for communal areas identifies hazards and provides recommendations to reduce risks to tenants and visitors.
Communal areas, such as stairwells, corridors, and shared entrances, are particularly vulnerable to fire hazards. This makes it essential to conduct regular assessments to maintain compliance with fire safety regulations. These assessments evaluate emergency lighting, fire exits, and the condition of fire doors, ensuring they are in good working order.
Typically, fire risk assessments are valid for 1 to 3 years, but landlords are encouraged to review them annually or after significant property changes. Costs for fire risk assessments in London depend on the size and complexity of the property, but investing in these checks helps prevent accidents and legal penalties.
