Common questions

Do I need a fire risk assessment for my London holiday let?
Yes. The RRO 2005 requires a written fire risk assessment for all holiday lets where guests pay to stay. From April 2026, the England STL Registration Scheme will require London hosts to register with All 33 London Borough Councils and demonstrate fire safety compliance, including producing a documented FRA.
What does the England STL Registration Scheme require for London hosts?
From April 2026, all hosts in England offering short-term holiday accommodation must register with their local authority. All 33 London Borough Councils administers registrations for London properties. Fire safety compliance is a requirement of registration, including producing a written fire risk assessment. FRASafe produces the documentation you need.
How is a holiday let FRA different from an HMO FRA?
The core principles are the same (identify hazards, assess risk, and take action) but holiday lets need to account for transient guests who are unfamiliar with the property and escape routes. FRASafe's holiday let questionnaire includes a dedicated Guest Safety Management module covering fire action notices in bedrooms, guest information packs, and emergency exit clarity.
How much does a holiday let fire risk assessment cost in London?
Fire risk assessment consultants in London typically charge £110–£300 for a holiday let. FRASafe produces a complete, legally compliant PDF report for £45, significantly less than an on-site consultant.
