Pre-season fire door check reminder Scheduled for: 2026-05-13 Awaiting Approval
If you run a guest house, hotel, or holiday let in the Lake District, fire doors should be inspected before the summer season starts, not after. A door that doesn't latch or has a damaged seal can fail inspection and leave you uninsured. We're carrying out inspections across the Lake District and Cumbria throughout May. Written report included. 📞 01768 863 551 #LakeDistrictBusiness #FireSafety
Fire risk assessment before the season Scheduled for: 2026-05-20 Awaiting Approval
Is your fire risk assessment from before this year? Staff changes, layout updates, or new escape routes can all make it out of date. We're taking bookings for fire risk assessments across Cumbria through May. Qualified assessors, written report, clear list of what needs fixing first. 📞 01768 863 551
Fire door inspections for the tourist season Scheduled for: 2026-05-07 Awaiting Approval
The Lake District tourist season is here. If you manage a holiday let, guest house, or hotel, your fire doors need to be checked before guests arrive, not during peak season when access is difficult.
BFP carries out fire door inspections across Keswick, Ambleside, Penrith, and the wider Lake District. You get a written report and a clear list of what needs sorting.

Is your fire risk assessment current? Scheduled for: 2026-05-21 Awaiting Approval
UK fire safety law requires businesses to keep their fire risk assessment up to date. If yours hasn't been reviewed this year, especially if your team or building layout has changed, now is a good time to get it sorted.
Our Cumbria-based assessors cover the full region. On-site assessment, written report, prioritised action list. 📞 01768 863 551

Pre-season fire safety for Lake District accommodation Scheduled for: 2026-05-05 Awaiting Approval
With the summer tourist season arriving, fire safety compliance is something Cumbrian accommodation providers need in place now, not in August.

Pre-Season Fire Door Inspections, Lake District Scheduled for: 2026-05-19 Awaiting Approval
Holiday lets, guest houses, and hotels across the Lake District need fire doors checked before the summer season opens. A door that doesn't latch, has damaged seals, or sits in a poorly fitted frame can fail inspection and leave you exposed. BFP carries out fire door inspections across the Lake District, Penrith, Keswick, and Ambleside. Written report, prioritised actions included. Book in May before access becomes difficult once guests arrive.
Fire Risk Assessments for Cumbria Businesses Scheduled for: 2026-05-05 Awaiting Approval
If your fire risk assessment is more than twelve months old, it may no longer reflect how your building is used today. Staff changes, new layouts, and altered escape routes can all make an existing assessment out of date. Our qualified fire safety assessors cover the whole of Cumbria. On-site assessment, written report, clear list of what needs fixing first. Call 01768 863 551 to book before the summer season starts.
