We help businesses, landlords and property owners find potential fire risk assessors and compare quotations, with no obligation to proceed.
An assessor can consider the premises, its use, occupancy, layout and existing fire safety arrangements when determining the scope of the assessment.
Fire Safety Duties and the Responsible Person
Where the relevant fire safety legislation applies, the responsible person must ensure that a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is completed and kept under review. Depending on the premises, this may be an employer, owner, landlord, occupier, managing agent or another person with control of the building. More than one responsible person may have duties and may need to cooperate.
The assessment should be specific to the premises, its use and the people who may be affected. A generic document or a quotation alone is not a substitute for an assessment by a competent person. The responsible person must consider the findings and put appropriate fire precautions and management arrangements in place.
Local premises and fire risk considerations in Manchester
Manchester includes city-centre offices, retail and hospitality premises, venues, warehouses, residential blocks and mixed-use buildings. Different buildings can present different risks, so a quote request should describe the actual premises rather than rely on a location or property label alone.
Include building height and use, public access, sleeping accommodation, storage activities and shared escape routes. Also provide the approximate floor area, number of storeys, occupancy, sleeping accommodation, shared parts and known fire protection systems where available. This helps assessors judge the likely scope before arranging a visit.
Property Types Covered
FireRiskQuote can be used to request quotes for shops, offices, warehouses, industrial units, pubs, restaurants, hotels, HMOs, blocks of flats, care homes, schools, community buildings and other commercial or residential premises where relevant.
Different buildings present different risks. A shop, warehouse, HMO, care setting and hotel should not automatically receive the same assessment scope. Tell the assessor about the real use, occupancy, layout and any specialist processes so the proposed work can be matched to the premises.
Choosing a Competent Fire Risk Assessor
There is no single qualification that automatically makes every assessor suitable for every type of building. Check relevant fire safety qualifications, practical experience with similar premises, competence for the complexity and risks involved, appropriate insurance and a clear explanation of the work to be delivered.
Before appointing an assessor, ask what the fee includes, whether a site visit is required, what format the report will take, when it will be delivered and whether any follow-up discussion is included. The cheapest quote is not automatically the most suitable.
What a Fire Risk Assessment Should Consider
The precise scope depends on the building, but an assessment will typically consider relevant fire hazards, people at risk, existing preventive and protective measures, means of escape, fire detection and warning, firefighting equipment, emergency procedures, maintenance and management arrangements. Significant findings and necessary actions should be recorded.
Fire risk assessment is not simply a check that alarms and extinguishers are present. The assessor needs to consider how the premises are actually used, the people who use them and whether existing precautions are suitable for the risks identified.
Prepare for Your Quote Request
- Provide the full premises address or postcode and the correct property use.
- Estimate floor area and number of floors, and explain any shared or sleeping accommodation.
- Describe occupancy, operating hours and any unusual or higher-risk activities.
- List known fire alarm, emergency lighting, sprinkler or other relevant systems if available.
- Explain any deadlines and ask assessors to confirm their proposed scope and deliverables.
