Proud to be Preston Based. Proud to Support Lancashire
Lancashire is our home.
Ezra Safety Group is a family run fire safety consultancy based in the heart of Preston. While our work takes us across the UK and beyond, we are incredibly proud of our Lancashire roots.
From supporting independent landlords and local businesses to working with schools, colleges, universities, care providers and organisations responsible for large property portfolios, we provide professional fire safety support throughout Preston and the wider Lancashire area.
So, if you are searching for a Fire Risk Assessment in Lancashire or a Fire Risk Assessment in Preston, you do not need to look to a large national provider. Expert, independently accredited fire safety support is available right here in Lancashire.
Fire Risk Assessments Across Lancashire
Lancashire has an incredibly varied range of buildings.
Our assessors might find themselves visiting a residential block one day, a school or college the next, followed by a care home, office, warehouse, church or large commercial premises.
Different buildings present different risks, which is why we never believe in a one size fits all approach to fire safety.
We provide Fire Risk Assessments across Lancashire, including:
Preston
Chorley
Leyland
South Ribble
Blackpool
Lytham St Annes and the Fylde Coast
Lancaster
Morecambe
Blackburn
Burnley
Ribble Valley
Rossendale
West Lancashire
and surrounding areas
Being Preston based means our team is well placed to support organisations throughout the county, whether you require an assessment for an individual property or need help managing fire safety across a larger portfolio.
Who Do We Support?
Over the years, Ezra Safety Group has developed experience across a wide range of residential, commercial, educational and specialist premises.
Landlords and Residential Property Owners
Fire safety legislation can be particularly complex for landlords and those responsible for residential buildings.
We support landlords responsible for HMOs, blocks of flats and other relevant residential premises, helping them understand their responsibilities and identify the measures required to keep residents safe.
For landlords with several properties, having a consistent approach across the portfolio can also make ongoing compliance considerably easier to manage.
You can find more information in our Fire Safety Guidance for Landlords.
Block Management and Property Management Companies
We work with block management companies, managing agents, housing providers and facilities management organisations responsible for both individual properties and extensive portfolios.
Managing fire safety across multiple buildings brings its own challenges. Clear reporting, consistency and the ability to demonstrate that identified actions are being managed are particularly important.
Our online reporting portal allows clients to view their Fire Risk Assessment, allocate actions, upload evidence and update tasks as work is completed, helping to create a clear audit trail of ongoing fire safety management.
Businesses and Commercial Premises
From small independent businesses to offices, warehouses, factories and larger organisations, employers and Responsible Persons need to ensure that appropriate fire safety arrangements are in place.
A suitable and sufficient Fire Risk Assessment is the foundation of that process.
Our assessments consider the building, the people using it, potential sources of ignition, means of escape, fire detection and warning systems, fire doors, compartmentation, emergency procedures, staff training, fire safety management and other factors relevant to the premises.
Most importantly, we explain our findings clearly.
Our aim is not to provide clients with a complicated report full of terminology. We want you to understand what needs to be done, why it matters and which actions should take priority.
Schools, Colleges and Universities
Educational buildings can vary enormously, from small primary schools to large secondary schools, colleges, university buildings and student accommodation.
They may contain large numbers of people, specialist teaching areas, laboratories, workshops, kitchens, residential accommodation and people who are unfamiliar with the building.
We have extensive experience supporting the education sector with Fire Risk Assessments and other fire safety services, including Fire Door Inspections, Compartmentation Surveys and Fire Training.
Care Homes and Healthcare
Protecting people who may need additional assistance during an evacuation requires careful consideration.
We support care providers and healthcare organisations with Fire Risk Assessments for premises where evacuation strategies, staffing arrangements, resident or patient needs and fire safety management can be particularly important.
Our assessors understand that these environments require a thorough, professional and sensitive approach.
Places of Worship, Community Buildings and Historic Properties
Lancashire is home to many churches, historic buildings and community premises.
Older and listed buildings can present very different fire safety challenges from modern construction. Fire safety measures need to protect people while also taking account of the individual characteristics and use of the building.
Our experience includes churches, presbyteries, community premises and historic buildings, helping organisations find practical ways to manage fire risk.
Why Choose a Local Lancashire Fire Risk Assessor?
Choosing a competent Fire Risk Assessor should always be more important than simply choosing the company closest to you.
However, when you can combine professional competence with genuine local knowledge and a responsive service, there are real advantages.
As a Preston based company, our Lancashire clients benefit from a team that is nearby, accessible and familiar with the area.
We are also small enough to provide a personal service.
From your first enquiry, our Client Experience Team will help organise your assessment and make sure you know what information we need before the visit. Following the assessment, our support does not disappear when the report arrives. If you have questions about your findings or need help understanding the next steps, we are here to help.
It is an approach that reflects the meaning behind our name. Ezra means “helper”, and being genuinely helpful remains at the heart of how we work.
Competence Matters When Choosing a Fire Risk Assessor
A Fire Risk Assessment is an important life safety document, so choosing someone with appropriate competence, experience and knowledge is essential.
Ezra Safety Group is independently certified through the BAFE SP205 Life Safety Fire Risk Assessment Scheme.
Our Fire Risk Assessors hold recognised professional qualifications and maintain their knowledge through ongoing Continuing Professional Development. Our assessment and quality assurance processes are designed to provide clients with confidence that their reports are thorough, consistent and based on current legislation, guidance and industry best practice.
Every Fire Risk Assessment also goes through our quality assurance process before it is issued.
We believe our clients should feel confident not only that an assessment has been completed, but that it has been completed properly.
Proud to Support Businesses and Organisations Across Lancashire
We are proud that a business which began here in Preston now works with organisations across Lancashire, the North West and much further afield.
But Lancashire will always be home.
We value the relationships we have built with local landlords, schools, colleges, property managers, businesses, care providers, places of worship and other organisations, many of whom have continued to work with us year after year.
Whether you manage one small building or an extensive property portfolio, our aim is the same: to provide professional, practical and reliable fire safety advice that helps you protect the people who use your premises.
