Fire Risk Assessments in London by Staines Safety Services
In the dynamic and densely populated capital city of London, fire safety is more than a legal requirement — it’s critical for protecting lives, property, and businesses. From high-rise office buildings in the City of London and Canary Wharf to West End retail premises, historic buildings, schools, care homes, and large residential blocks across all 32 boroughs, a professional fire risk assessment London is essential for full compliance and peace of mind.
At Staines Safety Services, we provide expert fire risk assessments in London and throughout Greater London. As a UK-wide fire safety consultancy with full national coverage, our accredited team delivers tailored, high-quality assessments. These assessments are designed to meet the unique demands of London’s diverse properties and businesses.
Why You Need a Professional Fire Risk Assessment in London
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 places a clear legal duty on the “responsible person” (owner, employer, or landlord) to carry out a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment for all non-domestic premises and the common parts of residential buildings. This applies to offices, shops, factories, warehouses, care homes, schools, pubs, hotels, and multi-occupancy residential properties across London. Non-compliance can lead to enforcement notices, significant fines, or prosecution. More importantly, it puts people at risk. A thorough fire risk assessment London from Staines Safety Services identifies hazards early and ensures full legal protection.

What Our Fire Risk Assessment in London Includes
Our fully qualified assessors follow the UK government’s official five-step process to produce clear, practical, and actionable reports:
- Identify fire hazards (ignition sources, combustible materials, and oxygen).
- Identify people at risk (staff, visitors, contractors, and vulnerable groups).
- Evaluate, remove, or reduce the risks.
- Record findings, prepare an emergency plan, and deliver training.
- Review and update the assessment regularly — especially after any building or process changes.

Expert Fire Door Surveys in London
In addition to comprehensive fire risk assessments, Staines Safety Services offers professional fire door surveys London to ensure your passive fire protection is fully effective. Fire doors are a critical line of defence in preventing the spread of fire and smoke, yet many London properties have doors that are damaged, incorrectly installed, or poorly maintained.
Our detailed fire door surveys include:
- Inspection of every fire door and frame for damage, gaps, and seals
- Checks on intumescent strips, smoke seals, hinges, closers, and glazing
- Assessment of installation standards and certification
- Clear, photographic reports with prioritised recommendations
- Guidance on repairs, replacements, or upgrades to meet current standards
Whether you need a survey for a single high-rise building or a full portfolio review across multiple London sites, our fire door surveys help maintain compliance, reduce fire risk, and protect your premises.
