FireRiskQuote allows businesses, landlords and property owners to submit information about their premises and request quotations from fire risk assessors available through the platform.

When requesting a quotation, useful information can include the type of premises, approximate size, number of floors, how the building is used and any relevant information about occupancy or existing fire safety arrangements.
Fire safety arrangements should reflect the individual premises, its use and the people who may be affected.
Horsham has a varied mix of commercial, retail, industrial, residential and community premises.
Horsham includes offices, shops, restaurants, pubs, workplaces and other commercial premises. The fire safety considerations for each building will depend on its individual characteristics.
A suitable fire risk assessment should consider the premises, activities carried out there, fire hazards, occupancy, escape arrangements and existing fire safety measures.
Commercial premises in Horsham town centre and nearby business areas may therefore have different fire safety requirements depending on how they are used.
Fire risk assessment enquiries can also relate to HMOs, blocks of flats and other residential buildings where communal areas or other circumstances create additional fire safety considerations.
The responsible person should ensure that appropriate fire safety arrangements are in place and that the fire risk assessment is regularly reviewed.
Where a property has particular risks or complexities, a competent professional fire risk assessor may be appropriate.

Qualified assessors across Horsham, West Sussex and surrounding areas.
We help businesses, landlords and property owners find suitable fire risk assessors and compare quotations with no obligation to proceed.
Assessors can inspect premises and consider the building, its use, occupancy, layout and existing fire safety arrangements.
Consider whether the assessor has experience with the type of premises being assessed, particularly where the building has unusual construction, complex occupancy or specific operational risks.
Consider the assessor's qualifications, experience, professional competence, insurance arrangements and ability to undertake the assessment required.
Make sure you understand what is included in the quotation and whether any additional inspections, plans or follow-up work are included.
A suitable assessment should be based on the actual premises, its use, occupancy, layout and existing fire safety arrangements.
The cost of a fire risk assessment varies according to the premises and the scope of the work.
There is no single price that applies to every Horsham property. A small office or shop may require a relatively straightforward assessment, while a larger building, HMO, care home, hotel, industrial premises or complex commercial property may require considerably more work.
Factors that can affect the quotation include the size of the building, number of floors, use of the premises, occupancy, complexity, existing fire precautions and the scope of the assessor's work.
FireRiskQuote allows you to submit your premises details and compare quotations rather than relying on a single indicative price.
FireRiskQuote also provides information for other locations across West Sussex and the UK.
