What each accreditation covers, and how to verify it

Who needs a fire risk assessment in Haringey

The buildings we are asked to assess most often across N8, N15, N17, N22, and what the assessment looks at in each.

  1. HMOs

    Shared houses need an assessment of the common parts and the escape route, and a licensing inspection will expect the fire precautions to match it.

  2. Converted flats

    In a house split into flats the shared stairs and hallway are the escape route for everyone, so they are where the assessment starts.

  3. Shops and parades in Wood Green

    Stockrooms, where most retail fires start, and escape routes kept clear of deliveries are the usual findings.

  4. Light industrial units in Tottenham

    The process decides the risk: what is stored, what is heated and how the people inside would be warned.

Assessing the common parts of an HMO or converted house

In a house in multiple occupation or a building converted into flats, the Fire Safety Order 2005 applies to the common parts: the hallways, stairs and landings everyone shares to get out. Since January 2023 the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 have added duties for buildings with two or more sets of domestic premises: fire safety instructions and fire door information for residents, and in buildings over 11 metres, regular checks of the fire doors.

The assessment looks at the escape route, the fire doors onto it, the detection grade under BS 5839-6 and the emergency lighting, and gives you a written action plan you can show at a licence inspection. Where the alarm, lighting or doors need work, we can do it.

Fire risk assessment in Haringey: your questions

Does an HMO in Haringey need a fire risk assessment?

Yes. The common parts of an HMO fall under the Fire Safety Order 2005, so the landlord or manager, as the Responsible Person, needs a suitable fire risk assessment of them. A licensing inspection will also expect the fire precautions to be appropriate for the property.

What do the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 change for converted flats?

For buildings with two or more sets of domestic premises they add duties for the Responsible Person, including giving residents fire safety information and, where the building is over 11 metres, checking the fire doors at set intervals. The assessment tells you which apply to your building.
