Following your enquiry, our fire safety technicians will first go through your building’s occupancy permit to confirm your ESM determinations (i.e. all the fire equipment that is located or has been installed on-site, and their respective maintenance requirements). Depending on the size of the building, a site assessment may be required.Following a site assessment and review of your ESM determinations, our fire safety technicians will then draft up a quote for your fire extinguisher maintenance and any other services.
Upon your acceptance of the quote provided, our fire safety technicians will then work with you to complete all required routine maintenance to a schedule that suits you. During your fire extinguisher maintenance appointment, you can expect our fire safety technicians to perform maintenance on valves, operating levers, pressure gauges, and all the other functional components of your fire extinguisher.
Once the fire extinguisher testing has been completed, we will then generate a comprehensive fire safety report that outlines all detected and resolved maintenance issues that may have been identified during our routine testing. We’ll either confirm that your fire extinguishers are compliant or outline what further repairs are required. If it’s the latter, we’ll generate a separate quote and schedule further visits by our technicians.
Our fire extinguisher maintenance service includes a comprehensive inspection of the fire extinguishers on your premises. Our experienced technicians test and inspect your fire extinguishers thoroughly, noting down repairs.
