Fire Risk Assessments Hampshire

Do I need a Fire Risk Assessment in Hampshire?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires that fire risk assessments are carried out on any non-domestic premises in Hampshire, including fire safety precautions to reduce or eliminate the risk of fire and identify persons at risk. As well as commercial properties, communal areas of residential buildings are also covered under the Order. This includes residential blocks of flats and Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs), which means landlords will need a fire safety risk assessment in Hampshire.

Our expert fire risk assessors in Hampshire will attend your site, liaise with the responsible person and conduct a thorough review of your building. A comprehensive report is then issued with findings and recommendations along with a timescale of when the work should be completed, where applicable.

How often should you review your Fire Risk Assessment?

The advice on Fire Risk Assessments is to make sure you review them regularly. There is no set timeline for this in law, so it’s at the discretion of your business to decide how often they are reviewed. It is recommended that a valid Fire Risk Assessment is to be carried out at least once a year or when there has been a significant change to the environment, as laid out in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
