Fire Risk Assessments Chichester

Do I need a Fire Risk Assessment in Chichester?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires that fire risk assessments are carried out on any non-domestic premises in Chichester, 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 Chichester.

Our expert fire risk assessors in Chichester 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.
