Why You Need a Professional HMO Fire Risk Assessment
Legal Compliance: HMO landlords must adhere to specific fire safety regulations to maintain their property license. Failure to comply can result in hefty fines, prosecution, or even the loss of your HMO license. Our HMO fire risk assessments ensure you meet all legal requirements and guidelines set out by local authorities and fire services.
Tenant Safety: Your tenants’ safety is your responsibility. A professionally conducted HMO fire risk assessment identifies potential risks and suggests the necessary actions to prevent fires, reduce risk, and ensure safe evacuation routes.
Insurance Requirements: Most insurance policies for HMOs require a documented fire risk assessment. Without one, your coverage could be compromised in the event of a fire. Our thorough assessments provide you with the documentation needed to satisfy insurance requirements and demonstrate your commitment to maintaining a safe property.

Emergency Lighting and Escape Routes: We evaluate emergency lighting provisions and check that escape routes are clearly marked, unobstructed, and safe for use during an emergency.
Fire Safety Equipment: Our assessment includes a review of fire extinguishers, fire blankets, and other safety equipment to confirm they are in good working order and appropriately positioned.
Fire Safety Procedures and Training: We assess whether your property has adequate fire safety procedures in place, such as an emergency evacuation plan, and offer recommendations for staff or tenant training if necessary.
