Fire Risk Assessment from £285 + VAT

    BAFE-registered fire risk assessors Essex

    As a team with years of expertise, our fire safety surveys highlight any hazards found in your building and ways to make your premises safer. This will help you adapt your fire safety plans to the unique needs of your staff, tenants and visitors. Our aim is to assist you with legislation compliance while mitigating the fire risks at your building.

    Why hire us over other fire risk assessor services?

    As fire safety engineers, our dedicated team covers sites of all sizes. We're local fire risk assessors, covering all elements like fire doors, signage and emergency lighting. Our highly skilled fire safety surveyors will outline all findings in your unique report. Keep this audit secure in your business or landlord records so that you have proof you've kept on top of fire safety requirements at your building.

    When is it time for a new fire evacuation assessment?

    After each fire risk survey, you should always make it clear when the next one should be scheduled. Good fire safety management is about continual monitoring while understanding when you may need to book an emergency fire safety check. Many landlords and commercial business owners review fire safety plans on an annual basis. However, this should be brought forward if there is a major increase in occupancy, a new tenancy begins, the property layout changes or a fire incident has occurred.

    How many hours do commercial fire risk checks take?

    Commercial fire risk surveys will often take around two to three hours to complete. For small sites, it can be faster than this, but for complex premises, a whole day may be required. The size of the building, the type of activities performed on-site and the expertise of your fire risk assessor can all affect the length of time it takes to complete a survey.

    We urgently required a fire risk assessment and were so pleased to have found MD Fire. they responded so quickly and were able to not only carry out the assessment, but also deal with the remedial work to help us pass and become compliant.
