As an owner of commercial or business premises (or of buildings of multiple occupancy which have common areas), you must comply with the Fire Safety Order, which came into force in 2005 and was supplemented in 2006. This states that you should take reasonable steps to ensure that any risk of fire is reduced, and that adequate safety measures have been implemented. If you have not complied with the regulations, you may not be insured in case of fire. Full details of the legislation can be found at:
Yes you can. However, for an untrained person, this can be time-consuming and complex, and you may risk non-compliance.
