SERVICES

Fire safety is critical in retirement villages, where vulnerable and older residents rely on safe buildings, clear evacuation procedures and well-maintained fire protection systems. We provide professional fire risk assessments for retirement villages across Exeter, Plymouth and surrounding areas of Devon, ensuring full compliance and peace of mind for residents, staff, and management teams.

Our experienced assessors specialise in environments where mobility, health considerations and assisted living arrangements require a sensitive, tailored approach.

Why Retirement Villages Need Specialist Fire Risk Assessments

Retirement villages, sheltered housing and extra-care facilities face unique fire safety challenges, including:

  • Older or mobility-restricted residents

  • Complex building layouts

  • Communal living spaces

  • Residential and care-style environments

  • 24/7 occupancy

A thorough, specialist fire risk assessment ensures compliance with:

  • Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005

  • Fire Safety Act 2021

  • Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022

  • Housing, communal area and landlord safety requirements

We help your organisation maintain a safe environment while meeting all legal obligations as the Responsible Person.
