Who is responsible for fire safety in a commercial building?
The “Responsible Person” duty under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 typically falls on the business owner or landlord, whoever has control of the premises.
Does fire safety compliance affect insurance premiums?
Yes. Insurers increasingly factor fire safety compliance into premium calculations, so a current Fire Risk Assessment and properly maintained systems can directly affect insurability and cost.
Can fire safety work be carried out without closing for trading?
Yes. Fieldway plans installation and maintenance work around trading hours and public access, so commercial premises stay open throughout.
What fire safety services does Fieldway provide for offices and retail units?
Fire alarms, emergency lighting, fire doors, compartmentation, Fire Risk Assessments and electrical compliance, delivered as one integrated service rather than several separate contractors.
How often should a commercial Fire Risk Assessment be reviewed?
Annual review is widely regarded as best practice, and any significant change, such as a refurbishment or change of use, should trigger a fresh assessment.
