In addition to conducting routine servicing and maintenance, we provide a 24/7 emergency call out service; technicians ready to undertake emergency repairs to your fire-protection systems and products.

Our technicians have been trained to diagnose problems, then repair and reinstate systems as quickly as possible with the least amount of disruption to your business or facility.

If you are unsure of whether your building has any of the above systems, you should look at the plans and specifications which were approved as part of the building’s approval.

The building owner should have a copy of these plans and the building’s Certificate of Classification. Alternatively, the local council should have a copy of the building’s approval records in their files.

Where records are not available, you should contact a building certifier or your local council to confirm the requirements for your building. A building certifier will be able to identify your building’s classification and by using the date of approval and the applicable legislation and codes, the prescribed fire safety installation can be ascertained.
