Fire Risk Assessment in Gravesend

Why Fire Risk Assessment Compliance Matters in Gravesend

Kent Fire and Rescue Service enforces fire safety law across Gravesham and can take action against property owners and businesses whose fire risk assessments are missing or out of date. The borough has a large number of converted flats and HMOs, older terraced and Victorian buildings in the town centre, and new apartment blocks around Ebbsfleet, all of which need assessment of shared areas such as stairwells, corridors and escape routes. For licensed HMOs, a current fire risk assessment is usually part of the licence conditions, and an outdated assessment can put your licence and your ability to let the property at risk.

What Our Fire Risk Assessment Covers

Our Gravesend fire risk assessments cover all requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and relevant British Standards. Every assessment includes a thorough on-site inspection covering fire hazards, means of escape, fire detection and warning systems, firefighting equipment, emergency lighting, compartmentation and fire safety management. We produce comprehensive written reports compliant with PAS 79-1:2020 and BS 9792:2025, including a prioritised action plan so you know exactly what needs to be addressed and in what order.
