Fire risk assessments in Dún Laoghaire
Under section 18(2) of the Fire Services Acts 1981 and 2003, the person having control of most premises must take reasonable measures to guard against fire and to protect people if one occurs. A fire risk assessment looks at how a fire could start, who is at risk, escape routes, detection and alarms, emergency lighting, fire doors and extinguishers, and gives you a written report with a prioritised action list. Read what happens during a fire risk assessment visit, or see our fire risk assessments page.
Legionella risk assessments and sampling in Dún Laoghaire
Legionella bacteria can grow in building water systems that are warm, stagnant or poorly maintained. A Legionella risk assessment looks at tanks, hot and cold water systems, showers and little-used outlets, and recommends practical controls such as temperature checks, flushing and cleaning. We also arrange water sampling and tank cleaning and disinfection. See our Legionella risk assessments page, Legionella testing and how to flush little-used outlets.
Dún Laoghaire at a glance
Dún Laoghaire is a harbour town on the south Dublin coast with a busy seafront, a shopping centre, hotels, restaurants and cafes, offices, a large number of apartments and a mix of older period buildings. Older multi-storey buildings that have been converted to flats or offices often have shared stairs and escape routes that were never designed for their current use, so a fire risk assessment looks at whether alarms, fire doors and exits still work as a system.
Your local fire authority is Dublin Fire Brigade. For a practical starting point, read our guides to landlord fire safety and the rented housing regulations and how often to review a fire risk assessment.
