Why Complete a Fire Risk Assessment in Swindon?
Swindon presents a diverse range of building types, from historic industrial areas and residential blocks to modern offices and hospitality venues. Each setting brings specific fire safety challenges. By commissioning a fire risk assessment Swindon, you not only demonstrate compliance with UK legislation but also ensure that risks are identified and managed effectively.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the “responsible person” is legally required to identify fire hazards, evaluate who may be at risk, and implement preventive measures to protect life and property. This duty applies to non-domestic premises, as well as communal areas in residential buildings like HMOs and blocks of flats.
What the Assessment Covers
A thorough fire risk assessment Swindon typically includes:
- Hazard identification: spotting ignition sources, combustible materials, and structural concerns.
- Who’s at risk?: evaluating occupants, visitors, and vulnerable individuals such as children, elderly people, or those with disabilities.
- Review of fire safety systems: including detection systems, fire doors, emergency lighting, signage, and escape routes.
- Practical recommendations: clear, actionable advice focused on reducing identified risks.
- Clear, written report: a structured document that outlines findings, priorities, and next steps.
Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment?
Regardless of size or industry, all businesses in the UK are legally required to conduct a fire risk assessment. Whether you operate a small retail store, a restaurant, an office, or a manufacturing facility, you must assess and manage fire risks to comply with regulations and ensure the safety of employees, customers, and visitors.

I found him to prompt, conscientious and pragmatic, and very friendly/easy to deal with. In particular, I valued his intelligent approach in relation to our listed building, which enabled us to find appropriate solutions that met the regulations without causing more detriment than necessary to the historic fabric of the building. I would definitely recommend him and use him again. Tracey Mackray2025-01-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
