Cleanair UK carries out fire risk assessments for commercial, industrial, residential and public sector buildings throughout the UK. With regional teams based in Kent and Birmingham, our qualified assessors help responsible persons meet their legal duties under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
A fire risk assessment is the foundation of a building’s entire fire safety strategy. It determines necessary fire precautions, management protocols, and equipment adequacy. Get it wrong, and every safety system — from fire doors to dampers — is managed against the wrong picture. Cleanair UK gives building owners a clear, current, and legally defensible record.
Fire risk assessment is a specific statutory duty placed on the responsible person in control of a building in England and Wales.
Enforcement Warning: Assessments must be updated following any structural, occupancy, or material changes. Non-compliance can lead to enforcement action, invalidated insurance, unlimited fines, and up to two years’ imprisonment.
Cleanair UK are not solicitors; this guidance is for informational purposes. Building owners should seek independent legal counsel regarding specific obligations.
Assessments follow PAS 79-1 (commercial) and BS 9792:2025 (residential) standards, detailing findings and emergency planning across six main areas:
Ignition sources, fuels, electrical systems, storage, and building fabric checks.
Evaluating safety needs for occupants, visitors, contractors, and vulnerable persons.
Means of escape, compartmentation, doors, detection, alarms, and emergency lighting.
Reviewing cladding, balconies, and flat entry doors in line with the Fire Safety Act 2021.
Prioritised risk-rated remedial steps ready for insurers and fire authorities.
Ongoing review cycles and updates following material modifications.
Where assessments identify compliance gaps — such as inadequate fire stopping, faulty dampers, missing signage, or defective fire doors — our technical teams resolve them directly. Get a single point of accountability from initial inspection through to certified resolution.
Cleanair UK carries out fire risk assessments across multiple sectors nationwide:
Yes. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person for a building must carry out and record a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment.
There’s no fixed statutory interval, but a fire risk assessment should be reviewed regularly — commonly annually — and without delay following any material change to the building, its occupancy, or its use.
Usually the employer, building owner, or managing agent — whoever has control of the premises. The duty can’t simply be delegated away; even where a third party carries out the assessment, the responsible person remains legally accountable for its adequacy.
Yes. Since the Fire Safety Act 2021, external walls, balconies and flat entrance doors must be specifically considered as part of the assessment where they apply.
Yes. Cleanair UK can act on findings directly — including fire stopping, compartmentation repairs and fire damper remedial works — giving you one point of contact from assessment to resolution.
Yes. Our two regional offices support a nationwide service across the UK.
Cleanair UK helps building owners across the UK meet their legal duties with clear, current, and fully documented fire risk assessments.
A huge thank you to the staff at CleanAir UK who have done the most fantastic job cleaning our kitchen this year. They were prompt, polite, helpful, friendly and amazingly efficient. The kitchen is sparkling and we are thrilled with the results. We will definitely be asking them back next year…
Have used Cleanair before to do our kitchen deep clean and were very impressed with their work so asked them to replace our duct for the kitchen extraction. Arrived on time, done the work quickly and efficiently which allowed our kitchen team to carry on with their prep work. I highly recommend them.
We got VIP treatment as a local business – all queries were answered professionally and the work itself was fast and clean – no mess left on site. A refreshing attitude! Thanks to the team!
Looking for companies for the cleaning and servicing of my kitchen canopy and ducts I found, via Google, overpriced local traders. I am so glad I looked on the BESA website and came across Clean Air Ltd. The lads you sent round were polite and did a good job. I was so confident in your pricing and work I recommended Clean Air to my church for their kitchen work. God Bless you all.
