Fire extinguishers play an important role in helping people respond to a fire, but they must be correctly maintained to remain reliable. Regular servicing helps identify damage, deterioration and faults that could affect an extinguisher's performance, while confirming that equipment remains suitable for its intended location. It also helps responsible persons demonstrate that appropriate fire safety arrangements are being maintained.
At Safe I.S., we provide professional fire extinguisher servicing and maintenance throughout Wolverhampton. Our BAFE SP101-accredited service supports a wide range of premises, including offices, shops, warehouses, factories, schools, healthcare facilities, hospitality venues and public buildings.

We examine each extinguisher's pressure, weight, body condition, hoses, nozzles, safety pins and tamper seals. Our engineers also check that operating instructions remain legible and that units are correctly positioned and accessible.
Following your visit, we provide a Fire Extinguisher Service Inspection Report and Certificate of Maintenance. These explain the work carried out and identify any defects or further action required. A full asset register is also available upon request.
Our quotes are based on your property address and the number of extinguishers requiring maintenance. Standard consumables, including O-rings, seals, safety pins, service tags and gauge stickers, are included in the price, so there are no hidden charges for these items.
