Fire Extinguisher Servicing

Fire Extinguisher Servicing, Supply and Installation

Professional Fire Extinguisher Servicing

Fire extinguishers need regular maintenance to remain reliable. Our servicing visits check the condition, pressure, weight, seals and signage of each unit, in line with the relevant British Standard guidance for extinguisher maintenance. Any units requiring attention are clearly identified in your servicing records.

Why regular maintenance matters

An extinguisher that has not been maintained may not operate when needed. Regular servicing helps ensure equipment remains in working order, supports your wider fire safety arrangements and provides the maintenance records that insurers, enforcing authorities and Fire Risk Assessments commonly expect to see.

What does servicing involve?

A typical servicing visit includes:

  • Visual inspection of each extinguisher and its location
  • Checks on pressure, weight, seals and operating instructions
  • Confirmation that signage and positioning remain appropriate
  • Servicing labels and written maintenance records
  • Clear identification of units requiring replacement or further attention

Fire Extinguisher Supply

Where additional or replacement extinguishers are required, we can supply appropriate units for your premises. Recommendations are based on the type of premises and the risks present — not on selling equipment you do not need.

Fire Extinguisher Installation

We install extinguishers in suitable positions with appropriate mounting and signage, so equipment is accessible, correctly located and clearly identified.

Replacement and damaged equipment

Damaged, discharged or end-of-life extinguishers should be replaced promptly. We advise on suitable replacements and can remove and replace units as part of a servicing visit or a separate attendance.

Extinguisher maintenance for multi-site organisations

For organisations managing multiple premises, we can coordinate servicing across sites with consistent records for each location, making it straightforward to keep track of maintenance across a portfolio.

What servicing documentation is provided?

Following each visit you receive appropriate servicing records for the units maintained, together with any relevant maintenance or replacement recommendations. These records support your fire safety documentation and any future Fire Risk Assessment reviews.

  • Servicing records for maintained units
