Fire Risk Assessments

Our commitment to safety and compliance drives us to offer expert fire risk assessments tailored to the specific needs of commercial buildings. Effective fire safety begins with a thorough understanding of the potential hazards within your premises. Our fire risk assessments are designed not only to meet but exceed industry standards, ensuring your business is fully prepared to mitigate fire risks and protect lives and property.

 

What Are Fire Risk Assessments?

Fire risk assessments are a systematic evaluation of your premises to identify potential fire hazards, assess the risks to occupants, and determine necessary measures to eliminate or reduce those risks. Conducting a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, and it’s vital for ensuring your business’s compliance with fire safety regulations.

Core Components of APS Fire Risk Assessments
  1. Identifying Fire Hazards:
    • We evaluate potential ignition sources and flammable materials within your premises, ensuring all fire risks are identified and managed effectively.
  2. Assessing Risks to People:
    • We assess the risk posed to anyone who may be on the premises, including employees, visitors, and any vulnerable individuals, to ensure their safety in the event of a fire.
  3. Evaluating and Implementing Safety Measures:
    • Our team recommends and implements fire prevention measures, such as fire alarms and disabled refuge alarms to reduce fire risks and enhance safety.
  4. Recording Findings and Action Plans:
    • All findings from the fire risk assessment are documented thoroughly, and an action plan is developed to address any identified risks, ensuring all safety measures are implemented effectively.
  5. Regular Reviews and Updates:
    • We ensure that your fire risk assessment is regularly reviewed and updated, particularly after any significant changes to your premises or after any fire-related incidents.
The Importance of Fire Risk Assessments

Fire risk assessments are not just a regulatory requirement; they are crucial for safeguarding your business and its occupants. By conducting a comprehensive fire risk assessment, you can:

  • Ensure Regulatory Compliance: Meet the legal requirements under the Fire Safety Order and avoid penalties or legal action.
  • Protect Lives and Property: Identify and mitigate fire risks before they become a threat, ensuring the safety of your employees, customers, and assets.
  • Improve Safety Awareness: Raise awareness among staff and occupants about fire safety measures, contributing to a safer workplace.

What Our Clients Say

Our most recent testimonials:

Paul

After repeated poor advice and service from another company we asked Chris Bee to look over the panel and sensors at our Long Eaton office; this was done promptly, resulting in a sensible proposal and we ordered the work to be done. All very satisfactory... we're now talking with Chris about another little project at another office!

East Midlands Demolition

The chap that came was brill. Very helpful, jolly and knew exactly what to do. A credit to your company.

Food & Drink Forum

We had an engineer called Kevin F come to site end of Aug 2022 and right from the beginning, he was very friendly, professional. He went above and beyond to answer our questions and ensured we understood our intercom system before he left. Usually when dealing with engineers, they are on a clock and need to get to another job, he was calm and considerate and would love to have him back if and when required!

Eggleston Steel Ltd

We have trusted APS with our fire safety, alarm and CCTV for many years now. A great company and very quick to react to any issues that we have with excellent staff throughout the business. Engineers are polite, knowledgeable, organised and experienced. Our business manager Tom Warrilow, having previously been an engineer, has the technical knowledge to be able to assist, advise and implement any requests that we throw at him. A pleasure to deal with APS from start to finish and I would highly recommend them.

Age UK Notts

George is a very conscientious, polite and efficient engineer that worked in a clean, safe and timely manner. Despite it being a Friday evening when usually everyone one is in a hurry to get off and start the weekend, George stayed to complete by tidying and vacuuming the area he had worked in. He took pride in his work and left the site as good as he could.

Ella Mossop – Facilities Manager

Myself and my colleagues are very impressed with the service received. From start to finish, everything was very professional and completed very efficiently. The engineer was outstanding, he arrived early both days and cracked on with minimal noise and mess. He made sure all staff members knew how to use the system before leaving and reassured us that we would be able to contact him should any problems arise.

Active Leisure

Your engineer, Kevin, was absolutely fantastic. He was extremely professional, knowledgeable and was determined to ensure everything was working as well as it could be and that I knew how to use the system. He was here for a long time and I can't sing his praises enough. I hope you will pass this feedback on to him and also to his uplines -he's a credit to your company.

John A. Stephens

The engineer that was sent to fix our alarm was brilliant - couldn't speak more highly of the company!

Mellor Community Primary School

We have just transferred all of our security management to APS and from the outset the service has been exemplary. Over the past week or so we have had engineers on site who have been so professional in the mammoth task that they have had to carry out. A big thank you to Ash, Jenny and the team at HQ, who have answered queries really quickly. Also a big thank you to Martin (CCTV & Intruder engineer) & Jordan(Fire Safety engineer) for being so accommodating to our needs whilst on site.

Erewash Indoor Bowling Centre

Very pleased with the quality of work & standard of service we are getting from APS. Everyone we have come into contact with, from sales & admin, through to the tech & service teams have been helpful & friendly. We first came into contact with APS when they took over the monitoring & maintenance of our alarm systems. Soon after we started taking to them about CCTV and it wasn't long before they installed us a new 4 camera system. To complete the circle, they have just completed work on a new, very easy to use, door entry system.

Adam – Housing Association

APS have completed a number of CCTV, alarm and personal protection systems for our organisation, and we have always found the company to be flexible, efficient, and very easy to deal with. The team is friendly, accessible, and knowledgeable. Their prices are very competitive too!

Nigel – Procurement Manager

Good service and product from a local business. Product was fitted efficiently and within budget.

John – Facilities Manager

I am very pleased to say that from the initial call to Chris to the completion of the full fire and burglar alarm installation everything went without a hitch. The team of engineers were very helpful and professional, I would certainly recommend them to any company looking for the services that APS provide, we have already asked for a quote for another site.

Added Scientific Ltd

Really pleased with the whole process, from beginning to end. The engineer was very polite and did a great job, leaving everywhere very clean and tidy. Thank you!

Bill – Health & Safety Manager

APS Engineers have had to visit some of our high complex hostels and have carried out all works with the satisfaction from our Service Managers, and all works were carried out professionally, with care, precision and without disruption or incident to our organisations operations. I can recommend him highly and without reservation. APS are very flexible to their response (turning orders around in quick time) and they are extremely clean and tidy in the workplace and never left any of our properties in disarray.
