Fire Assessments.
Protect Lives, Property, and Stay Compliant
At 20a Limited, we specialise in providing expert fire risk assessments tailored to your specific premises.
Our services help businesses and property managers across the United Kingdom comply with fire safety regulations effectively. With practical advice and thorough inspections, we ensure your property remains safe, compliant, and prepared for any eventuality.
What Is a Fire Risk Assessment?
A fire risk assessment is a comprehensive review designed to keep your premises safe, compliant, and prepared for emergencies. Unlike simple checklists, our assessments involve a thorough understanding of your building, how it’s used, and the specific fire risks present.
We identify potential hazards, evaluate your existing safety measures, and offer clear, practical recommendations you can trust—no complicated jargon, just straightforward advice.
Each assessment takes into account your property’s layout, occupancy, and purpose. We work in line with current legislation and best practices, prioritising actions by risk level to help you meet your legal duties confidently and effectively.

Who Needs One?
You need a Fire Risk Assessment if you are responsible for:
-
A residential block with communal areas
-
An HMO (House in Multiple Occupation)
-
A commercial property or office
-
A mixed-use building
-
Common areas in buildings converted into flats
If you are the Responsible Person—such as a landlord, managing agent, business owner, or facilities manager—you are legally accountable for fire safety. This includes identifying risks, maintaining safety measures, and keeping accurate records.
A thorough Fire Risk Assessment helps you understand your duties, stay compliant with legislation, and protect occupants and property.
