Fire risk assessment in Perth
Professional fire risk assessments for Perth businesses. Our online assessment helps you record your fire risk assessment for premises in the area covered by Scottish Fire and Rescue Service, including Perth's historic city centre, Scone Palace heritage, whisky industry, and thriving commercial sector.
Serving Perth businesses in the area covered by Scottish Fire and Rescue Service. We are independent of the fire service.
Our online self-assessment is based on the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, which applies in England and Wales. Fire safety law in Scotland is different, so the online report is not written for Perth premises. Check with Scottish Fire and Rescue Service or a local fire risk assessor before relying on it.

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.
