    • When to review your assessment

    Clear, fixed prices

    Each price is a one-off payment for that assessment.

    Legal basis: Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, Fire Safety Act 2021 and Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022; Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 in Scotland.

    Secure payment: card payments are processed by Stripe.

    14-day cooling-off: full refund within 14 days if the assessment hasn't been started and the report hasn't been opened. See terms.

    Common questions

    Is an online fire risk assessment legally acceptable?

    The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires a suitable and sufficient assessment by the responsible person, not a particular format. The online tool helps you record it. For complex, larger or higher-risk premises, book an assessor visit instead.

    Is this a certificate of compliance?

    No. The report is based on the information you provide and is not a certificate of compliance. If you are unsure, an on-site assessor visit (£250 + VAT) may suit you better.

    Are there any hidden costs?

    No. Each price is a one-off fixed payment for that assessment, shown with and without VAT before you pay.

    Can I get a refund?

    For online and HMO assessments you can request a full refund within 14 days if the assessment hasn't been started and the report hasn't been opened. Assessor visits can be cancelled for a full refund up to 48 hours before the appointment. See our terms for details.

    What about Scotland and Northern Ireland?

    The Fire Safety Order applies in England and Wales. Scotland has its own legislation, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005, and our Scottish pages explain the differences.
