Local authorities and requirements

Surrey Fire and Rescue Service is the fire and rescue authority for Surrey, and the borough and district councils are the local authorities. The fire and rescue service is normally the enforcing authority for non-domestic premises under the Fire Safety Order, and councils set their own HMO licensing conditions.

Requirements depend on the building, its use, its fire strategy, the fire risk assessment and any conditions that apply. We do not provide fire risk assessments as part of this service and we do not give legal advice.

See our Surrey services overview for our other services locally, or the main fire alarm systems page for the full service.

Fire alarms in Surrey: common questions

Do you cover all of Surrey?

We work across the towns listed on this page. If your site is in a town that is not listed, call us and we will confirm whether we can help.

I manage buildings in West Sussex and Surrey. Can you look after both?

Often, yes. Tell us the addresses and what is installed and we will say what we can take on.

Are HMO fire alarm requirements the same across Surrey?

No. Licensing conditions are set by each council and vary, and the right system depends on the property. Check with the council that licenses your property, and tell us what the licence requires.

Do the same standards apply in every building?

No. BS 5839-1 (current edition BS 5839-1:2025) is the code of practice for non-domestic premises and BS 5839-6 is for domestic premises. Which is relevant, and what category of system is needed, depends on the building, its use, the fire strategy and the risk assessment.
