Fire risk assessment in Oswestry.
Our head office is based in nearby Chester, and our team regularly works in Oswestry and the surrounding north Shropshire border area.
Oswestry is a border market town with a historic centre and a commercial base serving both the English and Welsh sides of the border — including significant trade from the rural Welsh hinterland to the west. The town's commercial stock ranges from historic town centre buildings in the conservation area to modern retail and light industrial premises on the outskirts. The agricultural and rural catchment around Oswestry includes farms, equestrian businesses, and rural hospitality premises with specific fire safety profiles.
Oswestry's proximity to north Wales means that some premises in the area fall under Welsh rather than English regulatory frameworks — a consideration for responsible persons in the border zone. Shropshire Fire and Rescue Service covers the English side. Our assessors are familiar with both frameworks and can advise on the applicable requirements for your specific premises.
Shropshire Council is the licensing authority for Oswestry. We cover the area regularly from our Chester base.

Everything the FSO requires. Nothing generic.
01 — Hazard identification
Sources of ignition, fuel, and oxygen
Every ignition source and fuel load in your building identified and assessed — specific to your premises, not a category checklist.
02 — People at risk
All occupants, including those needing assistance
Staff, residents, visitors, contractors — and specifically those who may need assistance to evacuate. PEEP provisions assessed where required.
03 — Existing precautions
Detection, escape routes, doors, lighting, equipment
Every element of fire safety provision evaluated against the standard appropriate for your building type and occupancy — specific findings, specific locations.
04 — Management arrangements
Training, maintenance, evacuation plan
Your fire safety management reviewed — training records, maintenance schedules, evacuation procedure, fire safety policy — not just the physical building.
05 — Written report
Specific findings, prioritised action plan
A building-specific written report with every finding named, located, and prioritised. Usable by the responsible person, their contractors, their insurer, and the fire authority.
06 — Review date
When to review and what triggers early review
Clear guidance on the review schedule and the specific circumstances — refurbishment, change of use, near-miss — that require an earlier review.
Every premises type has its own obligations and risks.
