Fire Risk Assessments within flats

Featured Replies

Hi.

A client has recently asked me does he need to get Fire Risk Assessments carried out on the inside of flats, he is the freeholder of a block, and is aware that he needs to have a Fire Risk Assessment for the communal, but does he need assessments for the tenanted flats.

Thanking you.

No, he should read article 6 of The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 domestic premises are exempt and article 2 definition of a domestic premises which states the common areas of a block of flats is not exempt so the RR(FS)O applies consequently a FRA is required.
