Does a one-chair hairdresser legally need a fire risk assessment?

Yes. The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies to every non-domestic premises, regardless of size. A one-chair salon still uses heated electrical appliances (straighteners, tongs, dryers), chemicals and has members of the public on the premises — so a suitable and sufficient assessment is a legal requirement, not optional.

What should a salon fire risk assessment cover?

It must cover your heated appliances and how they are switched off and stored, socket loading (salons routinely run many high-wattage devices on shared circuits), chemical and aerosol storage, the single escape route through a compact floorplate, and housekeeping around styling chairs and trolleys. We give you a written action plan tied to the RRO 2005.

Most salons use our Fast Track tier (£199) with same-week appointments and the report delivered within 48 hours. You can book online in minutes and the assessor confirms a time that suits your salon's quiet period.

Holiday Parks & Camping Fire Risk Assessment in Stoke-on-Trent

Reviewed by Chris Banks, Commercial Director & NEBOSH-qualified assessor · Last reviewed October 2026

Hotels, B&Bs and guest houses accommodate members of the public overnight, many of whom are unfamiliar with the building's layout. This makes clear escape routes, reliable detection, and a robust evacuation plan essential. HawkSwift's assessors examine every bedroom, corridor and escape route to produce a report that protects your guests, your licence and your business. This page is tailored specifically to holiday parks & camping premises.

Holiday parks and camping sites present unique fire safety challenges due to the mix of transient accommodation, seasonal staffing, and outdoor cooking. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Responsible Person must manage risks associated with caravans, tents, and communal facilities. A competent assessor specifically checks the separation distances between pitching areas to prevent fire spread, ensuring compliance with site licence conditions and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 regarding clear escape routes.
