TOOL - COMPLIANCE HEALTH CHECK
How healthy is your building's fire safety?
A quick, honest self-check against the things the law and the recognised standards actually require. It won't replace a proper audit, but it'll show you where you're likely strong, where the gaps are, and exactly which obligations each one ties back to.
This check gives general, indicative guidance only, based on common requirements for multi-occupied residential buildings in England. It is not a fire risk assessment, an audit, or a determination of your legal obligations, and the exact requirements depend on your building. Always get a building assessed properly. See our terms of use.
WHY IT MATTERS
A health check, not a clean bill of health
This gives you an honest first read on where a building stands, and just as importantly, it shows you the obligation behind each question, so you can see these aren't arbitrary. They're what the law and the recognised standards actually expect.
A green result doesn't mean you're fully compliant, and a red one doesn't mean you're in trouble. It means you now know where to look. Confirming the real position, and closing any gaps, is what a proper audit and an independent partner are for.
BEYOND THE CHECK

The full picture
Compliance auditing
When a self-check shows gaps, we run an independent audit ranked by real risk, across every building you hold.

Sixty buildings, blanket guidance
A portfolio assessed as if every block were the same, with works recommended several didn't need. The case in full.
