What is a Fire Risk Assessment?
A Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) is a systematic review of a property that identifies fire hazards, evaluates who is at risk from them, and records what action is needed to reduce that risk to an acceptable level. A NEBOSH qualified assessor examines means of escape, fire doors, fire alarms, emergency lighting and escape route signage, and produces a written report with a prioritised action plan.
A written Fire Risk Assessment is compulsory for every HMO under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. This national duty applies in Camden as it does across England, an HMO licence can add fire safety conditions on top, and single-let landlords are strongly advised to hold one too.
Fire Risk Assessment in Camden — local property context
Few Camden households live in houses. At the 2021 Census, 8.1% of households lived in a terraced house, 3.6% in a semi-detached and 1.7% in a detached house, with most of the rest in flats. Camden's October 2024 licensing review found additional HMOs spread fairly evenly across the borough, apart from the parkland of Regent's Park, Primrose Hill and Hampstead Heath.
BRE modelling from 2020, quoted by Camden, estimates about 6,200 properties meet its additional HMO definition, against about 1,250 mandatory HMOs. In October 2024, 2,566 additional licences were in force. Our NEBOSH qualified assessors are experienced with the escape routes, fire doors and communal areas typical of properties across the NW3, NW1, NW6, NW5, WC1, NW2, NW8, EC1, N6, WC2 postcode areas, and regularly carry out Fire Risk Assessments across Camden for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

Fire risk assessments in Camden: what the licence requires
Condition 21 of Camden's 2025-30 HMO licence conditions requires the licence holder to give the council a written fire risk assessment within 21 days of a written request. The condition refers to an assessment carried out under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Fire safety is the most common type of work Camden's HMO licences require. The council's October 2024 review found that 94% of sampled additional licences needed works to meet HMO standards. An assessment done before you apply or renew lets you plan those works rather than meet them at licensing.
