Where alarms should go

Alarms belong on every level of the home, outside sleeping areas and in hallways that lead to bedrooms. We check your layout and recommend the right spots.

Replace them every ten years

Smoke alarms have a limited life. If yours are older than ten years, or you can't find a date on them, it's time to replace them.

If anything we did isn't right, we come back and fix it free for 12 months.

Common questions

Should my smoke alarms be interconnected?

Interconnected alarms all sound when one detects smoke, so everyone hears it wherever they are. They're strongly recommended, especially in two-storey homes.

Do you service smoke alarms for rentals?

Yes. We check, test and replace alarms for landlords and property managers.

Hardwired or battery?

Hardwired alarms with a backup battery are the most reliable, because they don't depend on someone changing the battery.
