Fire Risk Assessments Chesterfield
Fire risk assessments in Chesterfield for commercial property are required under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Laws and regulations for fire are put in place to ensure the safety of everyone because fire in particular can have devastating effects.

What are your legal responsibilities ?
There’s an important piece of legislation called the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and it applies to buildings with multiple occupants or several floors especially. It is so, because it states buildings of this nature must obtain a fire risk assessment initially and have them updated regularly following this.
The only unclear bit of this is that the ‘regularly’ element isn’t specifically quantified so it’s difficult to tell how often you should actually have fire risk assessments done. From our professional opinion, we would recommend you have one done annually. The reason for this is that buildings can change so much in this time so it’s important to keep on top of all the risks and hazards associated with it.
Another part of this Act refers to the ‘Responsible Person’ (RP) who will arrange the fire risk assessments, organise fire drills, and support people in the case of an emergency.
Fire Risk Assessments Chesterfield - Key Points
Identify the fire hazards – We will firstly make sure we identify every potential fire risk and hazard that lies within your building. We simply do not take any chances when it comes to this because missing something has the potential to be catastrophic later down the line. Observing, making notes and highlighting potential issues is crucial as it sets up the rest of the assessment nicely.
Identify people at risk – Once we know what items, appliances, wires, doors and more could cause potential fire problems, we can then look at who may be affected by them within the building. Alerting people to the possibilities of fire risks means they will know how to act and react moving forward. It also means that adjustments can be made to the building if necessary, to make it much safer.
Evaluate, remove, reduce and protect from risk – Once we’re in a position to take action, we will do that as soon as it is needed. This stage may involve bolstering the fire doors in the building. It could mean adding more fire safety products like fire blankets and fire extinguishers. We will work closely with you and provide a detailed plan on what we feel should be actioned for maximum fire safety.
Record, plan, inform and train (if required) – At this stage, we will produce documentation that records all the details needed which is proof that you’ve had a professional assessment conducted, and you can show this to the local authorities for proof you are fully compliant.
Review regularly – We have the capability to send you automated reminders for regular reviews depending on the size and type of your premises. Although there is no exact requirement on how many reviews you require, we recommend at least annually.
How much does a Fire Risk Assessment cost ?
Fire risk assessments in Chesterfield are priced based on the size of your building. This is determined by the logic that if a building is bigger, it will generally take longer to inspect so we need to charge for the time it takes to do so. See the below table for a better understanding on some of the costs.
| Premises Size | Price |
|---|---|
|
Buildings up to 2,000 ft² Residential buildings with a small communal areas. |
£ 250 |
| Buildings between 2,000 ft² and 5,000 ft² | £ 300 |
| Buildings between 5,000 ft² and 10,000 ft² | £ 350 |
| Buildings overe 10,000 ft² | GET A QUOTE |

We know the local area like the back of our hand. We’ve conducted assessments in Chesterfield for years and it’s somewhere we love to work. We’ve got the experience, reputation in the area, expertise and competitive edge that makes us an excellent choice.
Fire risk assessments should be reviewed regularly, especially when there are significant changes to the building, occupancy, or processes. ‘Regularly’ doesn’t really specify or quantify a period of time however but we would recommend you do one annually because a lot can change to a building in this time.
The “responsible person” (e.g. business owner, landlord, or employer) is typically responsible for ensuring a fire risk assessment is conducted. However the fire risk assessment itself, should be conducted by a professionally qualified person or company.
We have a dedicated blog section on our website which has a plethora of information regarding fire risk assessments and other fire related services. Click the link here it will take you straight there.
Generally speaking, we will price based on the size of the building because it takes longer to inspect and assess more floor space. In essence, you’d be paying for the time it takes to properly do the fire risk assessment across the whole building. There are exceptions to the rule however as some buildings may have complexities within smaller spaces that take time to complete.
The time varies based on the size and complexity of the building, but typically ranges from a couple of hours to a day. We will usually give you an estimation on time at the beginning of the assessment and update this for you as the work unfolds.
