Fire Risk Assessments Exeter, Devon, Plymouth, Somerset & Cornwall
At All Points Fire, we understand that protecting lives, property, and businesses starts with a thorough and professional fire risk assessment. Whether you manage a commercial building, industrial site, or residential property, ensuring compliance with fire safety regulations is not just a legal requirement—it’s a critical responsibility.
What is a Fire Risk Assessment?
A fire risk assessment is a systematic evaluation of your premises to identify potential fire hazards, assess the level of risk, and implement appropriate measures to reduce or eliminate those risks. It involves reviewing everything from ignition sources and combustible materials to emergency exits and fire detection systems.
Why is it Important?
Carrying out a fire risk assessment helps to:
-
Protect occupants, employees, and visitors
-
Safeguard property and assets
-
Ensure compliance with fire safety legislation
-
Reduce the likelihood of fire incidents
-
Improve emergency preparedness and response
Failure to carry out a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment can result in severe penalties, including fines or prosecution.

Why Active Fire Protection Matters
-
Without effective active fire protection:
-
Fires may go undetected in early stages
-
Evacuation routes may not be protected
-
Fire damage and business disruption can increase
-
Legal and insurance compliance may be compromised
-
Regular inspection, testing, and maintenance are essential to ensure systems perform when needed most.
Why Fire Damper Compliance Matters
-
Non-compliant or poorly maintained fire dampers can:
-
Allow fire and smoke to spread rapidly
-
Compromise compartmentation and escape routes
-
Result in enforcement action by fire authorities
-
Cause failure at Building Control or insurance audits
-
Regular inspection, testing, and maintenance ensures your building remains safe and legally compliant.
