About Our Fire Risk Assessments Service in Haddiscoe
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to non-domestic premises, to the common parts of blocks of flats and HMOs, and to anywhere people pay to stay. Holiday cottages, B&Bs and Airbnbs are all in scope. A single private home is not. Norfolk Fire and Rescue Service and Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service enforce it.
Since 1 October 2023, section 156 of the Building Safety Act 2022 has required the Responsible Person to record the assessment in full, record the fire safety arrangements, and name the person and organisation who carried it out. The old exemption below five employees is gone. Plenty of small operators still believe it applies.
Assessing fire risk is a different discipline from electrical work. It covers escape routes, fire doors, compartmentation, signage and evacuation strategy. We own the electrical half: ignition risk in the fixed wiring, detection and alarm, emergency lighting, and the remedial work an assessment puts on the action plan.
We carry assessments out ourselves rather than subcontract them, and we can price and do the electrical remedial work that comes out of one. That matters in practice, because an assessment that hands you a list and walks away leaves you finding someone else to act on it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need a written fire risk assessment for a two-bedroom holiday cottage?
Yes. Paying guests bring the property under the Fire Safety Order 2005 whatever its size. Since 1 October 2023 it has to be recorded in full, along with the fire safety arrangements and the name of whoever carried it out. Suffolk Fire and Rescue Service publishes guidance for self-catering lets and asks for a BS 5839-6 LD1 system in smaller properties, interlinked through corridors, staircases and bedrooms, with a heat detector in the kitchen. Larger properties move up to a BS 5839-1 Category L2 system with call points and a panel.
How often does a fire risk assessment have to be redone?
There is no legal interval. The duty is to keep it up to date, which means reviewing it after a change to the building, the occupancy or the way the premises are used, and after any fire or near miss. Annual review is common practice, not a statutory deadline. Anyone quoting you a legal frequency has made it up.
Can an electrician carry out my fire risk assessment?
Only with the right assessor qualification. NAPIT registration and BS 7671 qualification cover electrical installation work, not means of escape, fire doors or compartmentation. The Fire Safety Order asks for a competent person, judged on training and experience for that type of building. We carry them out ourselves and can do the electrical remedial work that comes out of one, so you are not left holding a list and looking for a second contractor.
Is PAS 79 still the standard for this?
Partly. PAS 79-1:2020 is the methodology for non-housing premises and is still in use. PAS 79-2, the housing version, has been withdrawn and replaced by BS 9792:2025, effective 31 August 2025, which covers HMOs, blocks of flats and specialised housing. There is no such thing as an individual being PAS 79 certified.
