Why Fire Extinguisher Service & Maintenance is a Legal Requirement

Under UK law (BS 5306-3:2009), all fire extinguishers must be serviced and maintained annually by a qualified technician. Failing to do so can:

  • Breach fire safety legislation

  • Invalidate insurance coverage

  • Increase risk to people and property in an emergency

Our BAFE-certified engineers carry out thorough inspections, servicing, and maintenance, ensuring your fire extinguishers remain fully operational, safe, and compliant with all legal standards.

Fire Extinguisher Inspection, Service & Maintenance Packages

We offer a range of packages designed to suit businesses of all sizes and budgets. Each package can be tailored to your site’s specific requirements, covering inspections, professional servicing, refills, repairs, and ongoing maintenance to keep your fire extinguishers fully compliant and operational.

Fire Extinguisher Installation

Firefighting equipment is a legal requirement under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Responsible persons must ensure:

  • Premises are equipped with the appropriate fire-fighting equipment, detectors, and alarms.

  • Non-automatic fire-fighting equipment is easily accessible, simple to use, and clearly indicated with signage.

At Fire Services Central Ltd, we provide tailored installation packages to ensure the correct type, number, and placement of fire extinguishers for your premises, fully compliant with legislation. Our team works alongside our service and maintenance programs, giving you a complete fire safety solution.

 

Costing & Quotation

After a detailed survey and design, we provide an itemised quotation, including:

  • Recommended fire extinguishers and other firefighting equipment

  • Labour and installation costs

All quotations are sent for approval before any work begins, and installation dates are scheduled to suit your business.

Site Survey & Fire Safety Design

Before any installation or comprehensive servicing, a BAFE-qualified engineer will carry out a full site survey to:

  • Assess your fire extinguisher service, maintenance, and replacement needs

  • Determine the optimal locations for safety, accessibility, and compliance

  • Ensure all recommendations meet current UK fire safety legislation

Following the survey, our office team prepares a custom fire safety plan, detailing:

  • The types of fire extinguishers and firefighting equipment required

  • Exact locations for each unit

  • Recommendations for ongoing service and maintenance

This approach ensures a fully compliant, site-specific fire safety solution covering installation, inspections, servicing, and maintenance.
