Why You Need A Fire Risk Assessment in Stockport

Fire safety in Stockport is not just common sense. It’s a strict legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. If you’re responsible for any non-domestic property in Stockport, you must assess fire risks, safeguard those on-site, and act to prevent incidents.

From historic buildings around the Market Place to modern office parks, Stockport properties present varied fire hazards. Faulty wiring, blocked exits, and poor maintenance are all risks that can escalate without warning. A fire risk assessment identifies these threats and provides clear, practical steps to address them, helping protect lives and avoid costly damage.

If you’re unsure whether your premises need an assessment, contact our team for free guidance.

History of Fires in Stockport

Stockport has experienced several notable fire incidents over the years. In 2011, a blaze destroyed part of the historic Thatched House pub, leading to significant disruption and repair works. More recently, in 2022, a fire in a local industrial unit required a major emergency response, demonstrating how quickly risks can become realities.

Whether due to outdated safety measures or structural vulnerabilities, Stockport’s past fires underline why proactive safety measures are essential. A professional fire risk assessment is your first line of defence against similar incidents.
