Our Assessment Process
We follow a structured yet transparent approach so you always know what to expect. Every assessment includes:
- Initial discussion – We learn about your property, its purpose, and who uses it.
- Site inspection – Our assessor walks the premises, identifying potential fire hazards and reviewing safety measures already in place.
- Evaluation – We look at escape routes, alarms, equipment, and signage to measure how effective your protection really is.
- Report and recommendations – You receive a clear written report highlighting actions that will improve safety and compliance.
We don’t overcomplicate things. You get a professional opinion, written in plain English, backed by the standards set out in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.

Posted on Damian EleyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Liam at Fire Safety & Compliance has carried out two Fire Risk Assessments for me, one for a commercial property and one for a holiday let. 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.Posted on Tracey MackrayTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great thanks place for advice and help with all issues with fire alarms and safetyPosted on clare griffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Highly recommend Liam and his team such a detailed report outlining everything in great detail giving us lots of guidance. Well worth the money and for peace of mind now knowing everything we need to be compliant. Running a small business doesn’t come with a handbook so sometimes getting in the experts in is worth every pennyPosted on David BowdenTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Liam is an expert in his field, what he doesn’t know isn’t worth knowing! From initial enquiry to completion Liam was prompt, professional, friendly and explained everything along the way. Such a refreshing change to deal with such a professional and knowledgeable expert. I would recommend Liam to any business or Landlord without question. You will be in safe hands. Thanks again Liam.Posted on A WaltonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. To date this company has provided an excellent all round service.Our contact is ongoing as there are matters that need addressing. I initially spoke to Liam on the telephone. He was able to answer all of the questions I raised clearly and professionally with references to relevant legislation. The contract and pre site visit collection of information was professional and thorough. Communication was clear throughout. His time keeping was faultless. Reports were provided within the promised time frames and were clear and informative. Liam was able to provide reassurance and guidance and recommendations for the remedial work required in respect of our Grade 2 listed building. Explaining at the same time the different standards that applied depending on the proposed use of the building. In addition on request he was able to offer a comprehensive package of site specific fire notices , maintenance logs and procedures. Highly recommended for clarity and knowledge.Posted on Fiona PattinsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Liam was very professional, thorough and helpful at every stage - with advance communications, the fire risk assessment itself and follow-up advice and guidance. I can highly recommend.Posted on sallie hooperTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Liam was amazing. We needed a fire risk assessment in order to complete on our flat. He came out within a couple of days, and the assessment was emailed within 2 weeks. Outstanding!!!!Posted on S SandalTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Liam’s attention to detail was incredible while visiting the property. So easy to talk to and answer questions, explaining in full detail why fire doors required upgrading, etc. The fire risk assessment itself was incredibly detailed with recommendations clearly explained. I have rung him since the visit on several occasions and he patiently answers all my questions. If you need a fire risk assessment or anything to do with fire safety, Liam is definitely your man. 5 stars from mePosted on Ruwini PussalamankadaTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I am writing this behalf of the Charity I work for. They have been the best company and provided us the report quickly which we wanted for the completion. Professional, very informative, very friendly and accessible company. They agreed to provide us ongoing advice where necessary too. Highly recommend this company.Posted on Heidi HeinemannTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
