Fire Safety for Property Managers

Fire risk assessments and fire door inspections for managing agents and property managers, with clear evidence, prioritised actions and consistent reporting that can support individual buildings or multi-site property portfolios.

Fire safety support that works across your portfolio

Property managers often coordinate assessments, access, contractors, residents and remedial work across several buildings at once. Our role is to make the fire-safety side easier to control with clear reports, consistent references and practical priorities.

For blocks of flats in England, the Responsible Person may be the landlord, freeholder, managing agent or housing provider depending on who controls the relevant parts of the building. Current government guidance says the Responsible Person must assess fire risks, put appropriate measures in place, share relevant information and keep records.

How we help

Focused inspections, practical reporting and clear next steps for the people responsible for fire safety.

Portfolio Visibility

Consistent reports and references make it easier to see which sites are current, which actions are outstanding and what needs attention next.

Action Tracking

Clear priorities help you move from assessment findings to contractor instructions and completed remedial actions.

Resident & Client Evidence

Well-organised records support communication with freeholders, residents, clients, auditors and other stakeholders.

Key responsibilities for managed buildings

Depending on the building and management arrangements, fire-safety duties may include:

  • keeping the fire risk assessment suitable and up to date
  • maintaining fire doors, escape routes, alarms and emergency lighting
  • recording inspections, tests, repairs and contractor visits
  • sharing relevant fire-safety information with residents
  • reviewing arrangements after building works or significant changes

For blocks of flats, current government guidance also highlights the building structure, external walls and flat entrance doors as relevant to the Responsible Person’s duties.
