Who Needs a Fire Risk Assessment in Newport?

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, a fire risk assessment carried out by a competent assessor is legally required for most non-domestic premises and shared residential buildings. This includes properties where activities are carried out by employees, residents, or members of the public, such as:

  • Offices and other business premises
  • Shops, restaurants, cafés, and pubs
  • Warehouses and industrial units
  • Rental properties, HMOs, and buildings of multiple occupation with communal or open spaces
  • Care homes, schools, and healthcare facilities
  • Hotels, guest houses, holiday homes, and short-stay accommodation
  • Listed buildings and complex premises

This legal duty does not apply to single private dwellings, but it does apply to shared or communal areas within residential buildings.

If you are the employer, landlord, managing agent, owner, or designated responsible person, you are legally required to take reasonable steps to assess risk, control potential hazards, and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements.

What Does a Fire Risk Assessment Newport Involve?

A thorough assessment takes an organised and methodical look at the premises to identify potential fire hazards, evaluate risk, and assess how hazards could cause harm. Our experienced assessors review:

  • Fire alarm systems, fire detection systems, and warning arrangements
  • Fire door inspections, escape routes, and final exits
  • Emergency lighting, signage, and firefighting equipment
  • Existing fire prevention and safety measures
  • Activities carried out within the building and how fire could spread
  • Control procedures and staff responsibilities

The assessment records significant findings in a written record and produces a clear action plan and safety plan, outlining practical improvements to protect lives, support the fire service, and ensure compliance.

 

What Are the Risks of Not Getting One Done?

Failing to carry out a fire risk assessment can result in serious consequences for businesses and property owners, including:

  • Enforcement action or prosecution for failing to comply with the reform fire safety order
  • Invalidated insurance policies
  • Increased risk to employees, residents, and visitors
  • Business interruption and reputational damage

A compliant assessment helps prevent fire, protects lives, and supports long-term legal compliance.

How Often Should You Regularly Review a Fire Risk Assessment?

Fire risk assessments must be regularly reviewed to ensure they remain suitable and sufficient. Typically:

  • Annually for most business premises
  • Every 6–12 months for higher-risk properties such as care homes or buildings of multiple occupation
  • Immediately after changes to the building, layout, occupancy, equipment, or use of the premises

Reviewing assessments regularly helps ensure ongoing compliance and reduces risk over time.
