Under UK law, the Responsible Person (employer, owner, landlord, or managing agent) must assess fire risks and maintain appropriate controls for most non-domestic premises and the common parts of residential buildings. We routinely assess offices, labs, tech start-ups, retail units, hospitality venues, industrial sites, warehouses, schools, healthcare settings, HMOs, and holiday lets across the county continuity.
Every building is different, so each FRA is tailored. Typically we cover:
You receive a photo-supported, prioritised action plan with practical timescales—clear, proportionate steps rather than generic box-ticking.
We translate the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Fire Safety Act 2021, and Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 into plain-English actions for your premises, referencing relevant British Standards where needed (e.g., BS 5839-1 for alarms, BS 5266-1 for emergency lighting). Our goal is simple: keep people safe and keep you compliant.
Please reach us at info@dc2fire.co.uk if you cannot find an answer to your question.
Any available alarm and emergency lighting certificates, extinguisher service records, training/drill logs, maintenance logs, previous FRA, as-built or floor plans, and any hot-work/contractor procedures. If you don’t have these yet, we’ll note proportionate next steps.
Yes. We remain independent, but we’ll specify practical solutions, help brief contractors, sanity-check quotes, and verify completed works. We can also supply policies, fire action plans, evacuation diagrams, and staff training so improvements stick.
Most premises should review annually or sooner after layout/process changes, increased headcount, new equipment (e.g., battery charging), or any fire/near miss. HMOs, complex industrial sites, and high-footfall venues may benefit from interim audits—we can schedule reminders so compliance doesn’t slip.
We love our customers, so feel free to visit during normal business hours.
