We only publish BAFE SP205 fire risk assessments — the industry gold standard. Our assessments are conducted across Ipswich, Suffolk, and East Anglia to identify fire hazards and recommend safety measures tailored to your property. All assessments comply with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and adhere to BS 8674:2025.
What Does a Fire Risk Assessment Cover?
Our fire risk assessments evaluate fire hazards, sources of ignition and fuel, fire detection and warning systems, emergency escape routes, fire fighting equipment, fire compartmentation, fire door condition, electrical safety, housekeeping, management procedures, and staff training. Each assessment results in a comprehensive report with clear recommendations.
Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment?
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all non-domestic premises in England and Wales must have a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment. This includes offices, shops, care homes, schools, hospitals, communal areas of residential buildings, factories, warehouses, and any workplace.
How Often Should Fire Risk Assessments Be Reviewed?
Fire risk assessments should be reviewed regularly and particularly when there are changes to building layout, use, occupancy, or following a fire or near-miss incident. We recommend annual reviews for most properties, with more frequent reviews for higher-risk premises.
