Fire extinguisher compliance is rarely the reason a business gets fined — until it is.

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 places the duty on the responsible person to provide and maintain appropriate firefighting equipment. In practice, that means a current annual service certificate, the right extinguishers in the right places, and a documented monthly check.

We see the same patterns every week — extinguishers serviced by suppliers who never return the following year, units that have drifted out of position during refurbishment, kitchens with no wet chemical extinguisher, and FRA action plans gathering dust. This campaign is for businesses who want it sorted properly, by an engineer who turns up on time.

From first call to certificate in four steps

    Free site survey

    An engineer attends your premises, walks the floor with your duty holder, and produces a written specification with quantities, types, and locations.

  2. 02

    Fixed-price quote

    You receive a one-page quote covering installation or contract takeover, plus the fixed annual servicing fee. No tiered pricing, no surprise call-out charges.

Common questions from duty holders

If your question is not answered here, call us on 0203 761 1716 and a member of the team will help.

How quickly can you install fire extinguishers at our premises?

For standard commercial sites in Greater London we typically survey within 48 hours and complete installation the same week. Larger multi-site projects are scheduled to suit your operating hours, including evenings and weekends if required.

We already have a contract with another supplier. Can you take over?

Yes. We carry out a free audit of every extinguisher on site, document the condition and service history, and then continue servicing under our own contract. There is no transfer fee, and we honour the existing service intervals so you stay continuously compliant.

How often do extinguishers need to be serviced?

BS 5306-3 requires a basic service every 12 months by a qualified engineer, an extended service at 5 years for most pressurised types, and a full overhaul or replacement at 10 years. The responsible person should also carry out a monthly visual check.

What are the four main fire extinguisher types I need to know about?

Water (red) for paper, wood, textiles. Foam (cream) for flammable liquids and general office use. CO2 (black) for electrical fires. Wet chemical (yellow) for cooking oils in commercial kitchens. Dry powder is also used in some industrial and outdoor settings. The correct mix for your premises comes from your fire risk assessment.

Do you cover the whole of London?

Yes. We are based in Hayes and cover all London boroughs, the Home Counties, and the M25 corridor. Our engineers are dispatched from Hayes and reach most addresses within an hour for emergency call-out.

Can you provide a fixed-price quote without visiting?

For takeover contracts and small premises we can quote from a current asset list or photos. For new installations we always survey first — it is the only way to specify the correct equipment under BS 5306-8 and avoid you paying for the wrong kit.
