Request a ReviewWhat I provide
The service is a desk-based technical review of an existing fire risk assessment. The aim is to identify significant gaps, inconsistencies, unclear findings, weak recommendations and areas where the assessment could be improved.
An independent technical review of your existing fire risk assessment, with a concise written report explaining the significant issues identified.
Desk-based fire risk assessment reviews are available for a wide range of commercial premises across England and Wales, including shops, offices, workshops, warehouses and manufacturing premises. If you are unsure whether your premises are suitable, please get in touch.
Why use Fire Risk Reviews?
An independent review can give you greater confidence in an existing fire risk assessment and a clearer understanding of what needs attention. The aim is to identify important gaps, unclear recommendations and areas that may need further action, so you can make informed decisions about what to do next.
A separate professional view of your existing fire risk assessment, its reasoning and the significant issues it identifies.
Understand which matters need attention, what they mean in practical terms and where the assessment could be strengthened.
Deal with straightforward actions yourself where appropriate, and only seek further professional or specialist help where it is genuinely needed.
A review can be valuable before discussions with an insurer, landlord, auditor or enforcing authority, helping you identify issues before relying on the assessment.
How it works
Email your current fire risk assessment to me, together with any relevant supporting documents, your billing name and billing address.
I confirm whether the existing assessment can reasonably be dealt with as a desk-based review. If it cannot, I will tell you before accepting the instruction.
The fee is fixed at £195, so you know the cost before any work begins.
Once instructed, payment is received and the required documents are available, I aim to issue the written review within 5 working days.
