Fire Zones UK provides specialist fire risk assessments to businesses, landlords, and responsible persons across Kingston upon Thames — carried out by an NFRAR Tier 2 registered assessor with 15 years of experience in the fire and security industry.
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, every responsible person with control of a non-domestic premises — or a residential building with shared areas — must hold a suitable and sufficient fire risk assessment. Kingston upon Thames is home to a wide variety of premises within scope of this legislation: retail and commercial units, office buildings, hospitality venues, HMOs, student lets, and purpose-built flats surrounding Kingston University. Each carries its own risk profile, and each requires an assessment tailored to its specific conditions — not a generic template applied across all premises.
Stuart Mair holds Tier 2 registration with the National Fire Risk Assessors Register, providing assurance that every assessment meets a recognised professional standard.
We have no commercial relationships with equipment suppliers or remediation firms. Your assessment is completely impartial — you will never receive a biased recommendation.
From Kingston's retail and office stock to HMOs near the university, we assess fire risk across a wide range of commercial and residential building types.
Every assessment produces a detailed written report with prioritised recommendations, so you know exactly what actions are required and in what order.
Stuart's background in fire and security sales means he understands detection systems, alarm infrastructure, and fire risk at a technical level most assessors cannot match.
Our assessments meet the requirements of the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the Fire Safety Act 2021, and the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022.
Kingston upon Thames is served by the London Fire Brigade, which attends well over 100,000 incidents annually across the capital — making it one of the busiest fire and rescue services in the world. Within the Royal Borough, three fire stations cover the area, reflecting the volume and variety of incidents the LFB responds to locally. Research consistently shows that 60% of businesses never recover following a serious fire. For businesses, landlords, and managing agents in Kingston, a current and compliant fire risk assessment is the most direct way to reduce that risk for your premises and the people in them.
Yes. If you are an employer, business owner, or responsible person for any non-domestic premises in Kingston, a fire risk assessment is a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This applies regardless of the size of your business or the number of people on the premises.
Yes. Landlords and managing agents with responsibility for HMOs or residential buildings with shared areas — such as communal corridors, stairwells, or entrances — are required to hold a current fire risk assessment. With Kingston’s high concentration of student and professional HMOs, this is one of the most common compliance requirements we assist with.
An independent assessor has no financial interest in the outcome of your assessment. Fire Zones UK has no ties to any fire safety equipment manufacturer, alarm installer, or remediation contractor. This means our findings and recommendations are based entirely on the genuine risks in your building — not on any commercial relationship with third parties.
