Find out what you need to do to make your property safe for residents.
If you rent out accommodation you should carry out a fire risk assessment, looking at:
- the activities that take place at your property
- the building characteristics that could increase the risk of harm
- the probability of a fire starting at your property
- the likelihood that a fire may cause death or injury
You should then decide:
- how to lower the risks of fire as much as possible
- how to make your residents as safe as possible if there is a fire at your property
To find out how to carry out a fire risk assessment and how to make your property safe for residents, read our fire safety guidance.
