    Commercial Fire Risk Assessment Experts

    A workplace fire costs UK businesses an eye-watering £657,054 on average, per incident. With a comprehensive fire safety risk assessment, performed by a competent person, you’ll be able to fully understand and control your risks, before they become a problem.

    At Chris Lewis Group, we’ve helped businesses of all sizes to keep their buildings safe and compliant. Our expert fire risk assessors can take care of the process from start to finish. We take the weight off your shoulders and make sure that you are always following the relevant fire safety measures as well as meeting the latest regulations.

    Your Legal Obligations for Commercial Fire Risk Assessments

    Conducting a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement for commercial sites. If you are the responsible person for a non-private (home or dwelling) building as an employer, owner or occupier, it’s your duty to spot potential fire risks in your premises and take the relevant action. Those that ignore this duty can face limitless fines or up to two years in prison. 

    • Identify fire hazards
    • Identify people at risk
    • Evaluate, remove or reduce the risks
    • Record your findings, prepare an emergency plan and provide training
    • Review and update the fire risk assessment regularly
