Protecting Your Business and the People Within It
As a leading fire risk assessment company, SLB Compliance helps business owners, landlords, housing associations, and managing agents fulfill their statutory fire safety obligations. Whether you operate a commercial office, industrial warehouse, retail store, or manage multi-unit residential property, a compliant fire risk assessment is a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Choosing the right fire risk assessment consultant ensures your assessment is conducted thoroughly and without bias. Because we are an independent consultancy and do not sell fire alarms, doors, or remedial installation works, our assessors provide honest, practical recommendations focused purely on life safety and statutory compliance.
Why Fire Risk Assessments Matter
A fire risk assessment is more than a legal checklist - it is a vital evaluation designed to identify potential hazards, evaluate building evacuation routes, and protect occupants from the risk of fire. Operating as trusted fire risk assessment providers, we ensure your assessment follows the correct, up-to-date national guidelines tailored strictly to your building type.
We apply recognised fire risk assessment methodology and the appropriate current guidance for the premises, including PAS 79-1:2020 for non-residential premises and BS 9792:2025 for purpose built blocks of flats, together with relevant sector specific guidance where applicable. This tailored approach ensures the assessment is appropriate to the premises, with practical and proportionate recommendations to assist the Responsible Person in meeting their fire safety duties.

Common Fire Risk Assessment Questions
-
A fire risk assessment cost varies depending on several factors, including building size, complexity, occupancy type, and number of floors. A site visit and Fire Risk Assessment report start at £300 for smaller, straightforward premises like small commercial offices or retail units. Complex multi-storey residential blocks, industrial sites, or larger facilities require a more detailed technical evaluation.
