Fire risk assessment

North West specialists.
Fire risk assessments for businesses, landlords, and property managers across Bolton and west Greater Manchester. ABBE Level 4 qualified, from £295.
Fletcher Risk Management carries out fire risk assessments for businesses, landlords, and property managers across Bolton. We are based in Chester — Bolton is a regular part of our working week. Every assessment is carried out by an ABBE Level 4 qualified assessor with real sector experience, from £295.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the responsible person for any non-domestic premises is legally required to ensure a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment is carried out by a competent person. The Building Safety Act 2022 has strengthened those obligations further. An outdated or inadequate assessment leaves the responsible person exposed to enforcement action, invalidated insurance, and prosecution.

Bolton fire safety context
Bolton is one of Greater Manchester's major towns, with a strong manufacturing and industrial base, a substantial HMO and multi-let residential market, and a well-developed care and healthcare sector. The town's industrial heritage — textiles, engineering, paper manufacturing — has left a stock of converted mill and factory buildings that present specific fire safety challenges around means of escape, compartmentation, and the fire resistance of older building fabric.
Bolton's town centre has seen significant regeneration investment and contains a mixed stock of commercial premises, from modern retail and office developments to older listed and heritage buildings. Greater Manchester Fire and Rescue Service covers Bolton and maintains an active inspection programme across the borough. We cover Bolton from Chester, approximately 35 miles to the south-west, and deliver assessments, inspections, and training across the full range of Bolton's premises types.

Three services. One point of contact.
A fire risk assessment is the gateway to everything else we do. Where an assessment identifies fire door concerns, a dedicated fire door inspection is the appropriate follow-up. Where the assessment highlights training gaps, on-site fire safety training closes them. We can coordinate all three services to minimise disruption to your building and its occupants.
