Understanding Halstead premises

This local awareness allows our engineers to take a considered, site-specific approach rather than relying on generic assumptions.
Compliant refilling and replacement

All recommendations are based on current British Standards and practical fire safety needs, ensuring equipment remains effective and appropriate.

The records we provide are suitable for use alongside fire risk assessments, internal checks and external inspections, helping demonstrate ongoing compliance.
Adaptable servicing approach
Each servicing visit is planned around the layout, occupancy levels and day-to-day use of the premises. This flexible approach ensures fire extinguishers are correctly positioned, accessible and suitable for how the building is actually used, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all checklist.
