Shops and retail units welcome the public daily and often hold significant stock, packaging and display materials that add to the fire load. A fire risk assessment ensures your customers and staff can escape safely and that your premises meet the RRO 2005. HawkSwift delivers fast, fixed-price retail assessments suitable for your Fire Authority and insurer. This page is tailored specifically to funeral directors premises.
Funeral directors face unique fire safety challenges, primarily due to the storage of flammable chemicals like formaldehyde and the presence of combustible coffins and furnishings. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the 'responsible person' must ensure an up-to-date fire risk assessment accounts for these specific hazards. A competent assessor will specifically inspect the separation between preparation areas and public chapels of rest, ensuring that fire-resistant construction effectively prevents smoke ingress into sensitive communal spaces.
