About UK Risk
Fire Risk Assessment Expertise You Can Rely On
UK Risk specialises in providing professional fire risk assessments for organisations, property owners and responsible persons across the UK.
Our experienced fire risk assessors provide clear, practical and proportionate assessments designed to identify potential fire hazards, evaluate existing fire safety measures and help clients understand the actions required to manage fire risk effectively.
We recognise that every building is different. Our approach considers the premises, occupancy, activities and existing fire precautions to provide meaningful recommendations rather than a simple checklist exercise.
Alongside fire risk assessments, UK Risk provides a wider range of specialist fire safety services, including fire strategies, fire safety consultancy, fire door inspections and compartmentation inspections. This broader expertise allows us to look beyond individual issues and provide clients with informed fire safety support across their buildings and property portfolios.

Comprehensive Fire Safety Support for Your Building
From assessing existing fire risks to inspecting passive fire protection and developing building-specific fire strategies, UK Risk provides a comprehensive range of professional fire safety services.
Our team can support building owners, responsible persons, property managers and organisations with individual premises or larger property portfolios, providing practical advice and clear reporting to help manage fire risk and maintain appropriate standards of fire safety.
Fire Risk Assessments
Our professional fire risk assessments identify potential fire hazards, evaluate existing fire safety measures and provide clear recommendations to help you manage risk effectively. We assess your building, its occupancy and how it is used to provide practical, proportionate findings that support your fire safety responsibilities and help protect people, property and premises.
Fire Strategies
Our fire strategies provide a clear, building-specific approach to managing fire safety. We consider key areas including means of escape, fire spread, compartmentation, fire doors and access for the fire and rescue service. UK Risk can support new developments and existing buildings, including the preparation of retrospective fire strategies where appropriate.
Fire Safety Consultation
We provide specialist advice when you need support with complex fire safety matters. We work with building owners, responsible persons, property managers and project teams to review concerns, assess potential solutions and provide recommendations. Support is available for existing buildings, refurbishments, developments and ongoing fire safety management requirements.
Fire Door Inspections
Our fire door inspections assess the condition, installation and key components of your fire doors to identify defects that could compromise their performance. We provide clear inspection findings and practical recommendations to help you understand where maintenance or remedial work may be required, supporting effective passive fire protection throughout your building or property portfolio.
Compartmentation Inspections
Our compartmentation inspections assess the condition and effectiveness of fire-resistant walls, floors, barriers and associated fire stopping. We identify breaches, defects and other issues that could allow fire and smoke to spread through a building. Clear reporting helps you understand identified deficiencies, prioritise remedial works and maintain effective passive fire protection measures.
Frequently Asked Questions
How often should a fire risk assessment be conducted?
A fire risk assessment should be reviewed annually or whenever there are significant changes to the premises.
How much does a fire risk assessment cost?
The cost depends on factors including the size, type, location and complexity of the premises. UK Risk offers fixed pricing for qualifying properties within 40 miles of Birmingham, with options also available for organisations with multiple properties across the UK. Larger or more complex premises may require a bespoke quotation.
How long is the turn-around on a fire risk assessment?
It will depend on the size of your premise and the amount of issues identified on the day. Being prepared for our assessor on the day will help speed the process up.
What documents will the assessor need to see during a fire risk assessment?
We will email you with a checklist for what documents you need to provide us with. Examples include: Fire safety log book, PAT testing & gas safety certificates and maintenance certificates.

Do fire doors need to be inspected regularly?
Yes, ideally every 6 months, but high-use doors might need more frequent checks. Some high-rise buildings require doors to be checked every 3 months.
What is the difference between a fire strategy and a fire risk assessment?
A fire risk assessment identifies hazards and evaluates fire risks in a building, while a fire strategy provides a detailed plan outlining how to prevent, control, and manage fires, ensuring safety and compliance with building regulations.
Where can I do fire safety training?
See the link at the top of our webpage for our available online training courses.
Do you do passive fire safety inspections?
Yes, we can survey fire doors, walls, ceilings, and existing fire stopping work and provide a report with locations identified on a floor plan. Get in touch for a quotation.
Are fire extinguishers mandatory in all businesses?
Yes, most businesses require appropriate fire extinguishers based on their risk level. They should be annually serviced by a competent person.
