Are you a holiday cottage owner?
Have you ever considered the devastation that could be caused by a fire at your holiday cottage? Did you know it is your responsibility to ensure that your guests are safe when they stay in your property?
As a holiday cottage owner, you are required to comply with the Regulatory Reform Fire Safety Order 2005. You, or an experienced assessor, should undertake a fire risk assessment for your holiday home, which will identify any potential fire risks and the measures you need to put in place to control them.
A fire risk assessment shows you have taken adequate precautions to remove risks and to make guests aware of them.
Why choose Ignite?
We understand how much time and effort goes into making your holiday home a great place to stay for your guests. We know this because we manage several holiday cottages ourselves in West Dorset.
As well as a holiday cottage owner, Alan, principal assessor at Ignite, is an experienced and qualified Fire Risk Assessor who, for many years, served as a whole time operational fire fighter. He has seen, first hand, the devastation that fire can cause to properties as well as loss of life and the emotional distress that this can cause.
Do you find the legislation for fire risk assessments confusing? Not sure what you should be looking for or how to document it? Ignite has the experience, knowledge and qualifications to help you with this necessary and important task.

With schools closed and people everywhere instructed to stay inside as much as possible, many homes will be busy places, in which there will be a lot more cooking going on. Please take care when cooking at home and remember these simple tips:
•Never leave children in the kitchen alone while cooking is going on.
•Keep matches and saucepan handles out of their reach to keep them safe.
•Avoid leaving cooking unattended – keep an eye on that pan!
•Don’t be distracted – remember to turn off the pan when you’ve finished cooking.
Stay in, stay safe and call 999 if you have an emergency.
If we can help in any way please feel free to contact us.

Happy holiday cottage owners
These happy holiday cottage owners can testify our dedication to Fire Risk Assessment
"Ignite did a thorough review of our cottage. It put our minds at rest knowing that we now have a solid fire risk assessment"
We did not realise how important a fire risk assessment was and wouldn't have had a clue where to start on our own. Alan certainly knows what to look for".
