Fire safety for your premises
The fire risk assessment
GOV.UK says the person responsible for a workplace must carry out and regularly review a fire risk assessment, and keep a written record of it. It covers things like fire fighting equipment and fire detection and warning systems.
What a service contract covers
Ask which equipment is checked, how often, what is replaced and charged separately, and the response time if something fails.
Records after each visit
Ask for a written record after every service or inspection, and keep it with your fire risk assessment.
How to check a fire safety firm yourself
GotAPal lists businesses from public records and does not check or vet them. Before you hire, do these checks yourself. They take a few minutes.
- If the fire safety firm is a limited company, look it up on Companies House: check it is active and the name and address match.
- Ask for their public liability insurance certificate and check the dates on it.
- Get the contract in writing: what is serviced, how often, the price per visit or per year, and the notice period.
- Ask what paperwork you will get after each visit, and keep it.
- Ask about any third-party accreditation the firm holds, and check it on the accrediting body's own website.
- Companies House: search the register: Free to search. Shows whether a limited company is active, when it was set up and who runs it.
- GOV.UK: Fire safety in the workplace: Who is responsible for fire safety, and what a fire risk assessment covers.
