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.

How quickly can a hairdresser get the assessment done?

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.

Vineyards Fire Risk Assessment in Edinburgh

Built for Vineyards

High fire load • Racking & storage • Process risk reviewed

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

Warehouses and industrial units present a distinct fire-safety challenge: high storage density, long travel distances to exits, and often machinery, forklifts and flammable materials. A thorough fire risk assessment is essential to protect staff and stock and to satisfy your insurer. HawkSwift's assessors understand industrial environments and produce practical, compliant reports. This page is tailored specifically to vineyards premises.

Vineyards face distinct fire risks due to the combination of flammable agricultural chemicals, dry vegetation, and extensive on-site processing facilities. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the 'responsible person' must ensure a comprehensive assessment covers both public tasting areas and hazardous production zones. A competent assessor will specifically evaluate the storage of fermentation gases and the separation distances between harvest machinery and winery buildings to mitigate ignition risks.
