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 Ealing 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 Ealing — local property context
Ealing's housing peaks in the early 20th century. In VOA 2025 figures, 22.9% of council tax properties date from the 1930s and 15.6% from 1900 to 1918, against 16.0% and 8.2% across London (VOA 2025). Purpose-built flats hold 34.5% of households, terraced houses 23.4% and semi-detached houses 21.9% (Census 2021). The council says HMOs are spread across its seven towns, with most in Acton and Ealing town.
As of the council's July 2026 figures, Ealing's licensed HMOs house 24,705 tenants, and its teams carry out about 400 selective licensing inspections of single-household homes a month. Our NEBOSH qualified assessors are experienced with the escape routes, fire doors and communal areas typical of properties across the W3, W5, UB6, UB5, W13, UB1, W7, UB2, W4, NW10 postcode areas, and regularly carry out Fire Risk Assessments across Ealing for private landlords, letting agents and HMO operators.

Fire risk assessments in Ealing: reviewed at every change of tenancy
Ealing's HMO Standards ask for the fire risk assessment to be reviewed every year or at each change of tenancy, whichever comes first. Licensed HMOs here house about six tenants each on average, so one new tenant moving in brings the review forward.
After a house is subdivided into HMO flats, as the council's licensing evidence describes, the assessment needs to reflect the new layout. The council's management checklist also asks whether the common parts have been assessed and the remedial works completed.
Of seven HMO fires in the borough from February 2025 to May 2026, the council suspects five were started deliberately by occupants. The review at each change of tenancy is the point to recheck how shared kitchens and escape routes are actually being used.
