Why this is different

Most options are either expensive, awkward templates—or too vague to feel confident. This keeps the “why” and removes the “pain”.

  • Guided: asks what matters, skips what doesn’t
  • Consistent: always produces a clean, readable record
  • Practical: ends with actions, not just findings
  • Instant: no waiting, no back-and-forth
Save time • reduce admin • stay audit-ready

Fire Risk Assessment FAQs

Quick answers before you start. (The tool also explains key terms as you go.)

Are the documents legally valid?

The PDF is a structured record designed for situations where self-assessment is permitted. It helps demonstrate that risks have been considered and recorded properly. It is not a certificate or a professional inspection.

Is this suitable for landlords and small businesses?

Yes—this is built for landlords, facilities teams, and SMEs managing straightforward, low-risk premises. You’ll be guided through the key areas and the tool will flag when professional help is more appropriate.

What counts as “simple / low-risk” premises?

Typically: clear layouts, limited ignition sources, low fire load, straightforward occupancy, and obvious escape routes. If you have complex layouts, high-risk activities, vulnerable occupants, or large numbers of people, you should use a competent professional assessor.

Can I download the assessment as a PDF?

Yes—your fire risk assessment is generated instantly as a PDF so you can keep it on file, share it, and revisit it during reviews.

Do I need any health & safety knowledge?

No. It’s written in plain English and includes guidance prompts. You just answer what applies to your premises.

How often should I review it?

Review when anything changes (layout, occupancy, processes, alarms/lighting, or escape routes), after incidents/near misses, and on a regular schedule appropriate to your site. The PDF includes a review prompt so you can stay on top of it.
