Risk Assessments Across England & Wales
Fire Risk Assessments
Professional fire risk assessment services for HMOs, care homes, retail and commercial premises across England and Wales.
A fire risk assessment reviews the fire hazards present within a property, the precautions already in place and the areas that need attention. The aim is a straightforward picture of where risk sits and what should happen next.
Apex has been carrying out fire risk assessment work since around 2005. Assessments are written for the people who have to act on them — property managers, care teams and business owners — rather than for a filing cabinet.

Initial discussion
A short call about the property, its use and occupancy.
Site inspection
A walk-through of the premises reviewing precautions in place.
Risk evaluation
Findings are assessed and prioritised by significance.
Written report
A clear report with an ordered list of recommended actions.

Fire Risk Assessment Report
Illustrative layout only — actual content varies by property.
Where an assessment identifies a significant number of actions, Apex can carry out a secondary visit once the remedial work has been completed, helping you review the updated position.
A short call is usually the fastest way to get a clear answer about your property.
FAQs
Call Apex and we’ll ask a few questions about the property to recommend the right assessment.
