What fire alarm system is best for my home, wired or wireless?

It depends on your property layout and how much disruption you want. Wired systems are the most reliable long-term and ideal during refurbishments. Wireless systems are fast, clean to install, and perfect for finished homes. We recommend the option that gives you full BS 5839-6 coverage with the least hassle.

How quickly can you install a fire alarm system in Halesowen?

Most Halesowen installations can be completed within 24–72 hours, depending on system type and availability. Emergency slots can often be arranged sooner if safety is a concern.

Do I need interlinked alarms and why are they safer?

Yes — interlinked alarms activate together, giving you more time to escape and preventing fires from going unnoticed in other rooms. They’re the recommended standard for most homes and essential for larger layouts or HMOs.

How long does a fire alarm installation take?

A standard domestic install takes 1–3 hours, depending on the number of detectors and whether the system is wired or wireless. Larger homes or full upgrades may take slightly longer.

Can you upgrade or replace my old fire alarms?

Absolutely. We replace outdated, faulty, or non-compliant alarms and install modern detectors that meet BS 5839-6. We can reuse safe wiring, add new detectors, or completely renew the system.

Can you install alarms during renovations or extensions?

Yes, it’s the ideal time. We work around contractors, ensure correct detector placement, and run cables before ceilings and walls are closed, giving you a clean, future-proof installation.

Will installing new alarms damage my ceilings or décor?

No. Wireless systems avoid cabling entirely, and even wired setups are installed cleanly with minimal disturbance. We use tidy routing, dust control, and leave your home exactly as it was.

Why do my alarms beep or false alarm, and can you fix it?

Beeping or false alarms usually come from expired heads, dust build-up, wiring issues, or poor-quality detectors. We diagnose the fault, clean or replace affected components, and restore reliability.

What happens if my fire alarm shows a fault or stops working?

A fault means your alarm may not trigger when needed. We provide fast callouts to investigate issues, repair or replace faulty parts, and ensure your system is fully operational again.

Can you take over and maintain a system installed by another company?

Yes, we take over most existing domestic systems. We inspect the installation, test all detectors, fix any compliance issues, and then place it onto a proper maintenance plan.

Will a compliant system help with insurance or landlord requirements?

Yes. BS 5839-6 compliance supports insurance validity and is mandatory for landlords and HMOs. Proper installation and servicing reduce risk, meet legal obligations, and provide proof of due diligence.
