High-Risk Building Owners – are you fire safety compliant
The Building Safety Act 2022 gives fire safety in the social housing sector the attention it deserves in a post-Grenfell era.
Fire prevention is vital to saving lives and safeguarding homes in this industry since residents and communities deserve to feel secure.
“Sleeping risk” is one of the most important factors to take into account for the Social and High-Risk housing sector when it comes to fire prevention and is the ultimate target of fire safety implementation.
The good news is that our Fire Safety Compliance team are well-equipped to handle the challenge. With over 30+ years of fire safety experience both in the Fire Service and public and private sectors.

Is your Fire Risk Assessment up to date?
A Fire Risk Assessment should be at the heart of your fire safety arrangements.
The Fire Risk Assessment should consider any potential fire hazards on the property and outline what needs to be done to keep people safe and you fully compliant.
We recognise that conducting Fire Risk Assessments can be challenging to do well and manage because they can be time-consuming and complex and frequently call for specialised knowledge and opinion.
Here’s where we step in.
Our fire risk assessors are chosen for their knowledge, experience, and ability to identify solutions rather than just problems. We aim to enhance your understanding of fire safety through the process.
Our Fire Risk Assessment reports are clear and easy to understand. We have updated the standard risk assessment format to reflect a straightforward colour-coded “traffic light” system, making it easy to identify key action points.

Do you fully understand your Fire Safety Responsibilities?
Under the Fire Safety Act 2021, the Responsible Person has overall responsibility for the safety of the building’s occupants and visitors.
Perhaps you are a landlord, employer or business owner responsible for your premises or assets (these could be high or low-risk buildings). In this case, you are likely to be the Responsible Person. This involves many legal obligations, duties and tasks that may seem overwhelming.
However, we are here to help simplify Fire Safety Compliance and assist with every aspect of the Responsible Person role and your journey to Fire Safety Compliance.

The danger of e-bike and e-scooter batteries when charging
Instances of devastating residential fires caused by charging damaged and non-standard e-bike and e-scooter batteries have been making the news recently. These fires caused significant damage and in recent tragic cases, death.
Last year (2022), the London Fire Brigade responded to 87 fires involving e-bikes and 29 fires involving e-scooters. Lithium-ion batteries, which are used in most e-scooters and e-bikes, are known to be flammable. If they are damaged or overheat, they can catch fire and even explode.
It is important to be aware of the fire hazard these batteries pose and take steps to reduce the risk. By following these safety tips, you can help to keep yourself and others safe.
There are a number of factors that can contribute to a battery fire. These include:
- Overcharging: Charging a lithium-ion battery beyond its capacity can cause it to overheat and catch fire.
- Damage: Dropping or crashing an e-scooter or e-bike can damage the battery, making it more likely to catch fire.
- Faulty batteries: Some non-standard e-batteries are made with faulty components that can increase the risk of fire.
- Improper charging: Using the wrong or broken charger or charging the battery in a humid or hot environment can also increase fire risk.
If you own an e-scooter or e-bike, there are several things you can do to reduce the risk of a battery fire:
- Only use the charger that came with your device.
- Never leave your e-scooter or e-bike charging unattended.
- Avoid charging the battery in a hot or humid environment.
- Inspect your e-scooter or e-bike regularly for signs of damage to the battery and charging equipment.
- If you suspect that your battery is damaged, do not use it and contact the manufacturer.
Additional Safety Tips
- Store your battery in a cool, dry place.
- Do not expose your battery to extreme temperatures.
- Do not puncture or damage your battery.
- Do not dispose of your battery in a fire.
- If you see an e-scooter or e-bike battery fire, it is important to stay away from the flames and call the 999 immediately.
