Trusted Fire Alarm Engineer in Warrington
With over 27 years of dedicated experience in the fire protection industry, I established my self-employed fire alarm engineering service in 2018 to address a critical gap in reliable subcontractor expertise. My career began as a Commissioning Engineer for a prominent northwest fire alarm company, where I progressed to Contracts Manager over two decades. Recognising the inconsistency in subcontractor quality, I committed to delivering direct, vetted engineering solutions without agency intermediaries. My services encompass installation, commissioning, maintenance, and repair of all fire alarm systems, alongside emergency lighting, heat detection, and air sampling technologies.I prioritise compliance with British standards, offering fire risk assessments and tailored solutions for commercial and residential properties. My approach ensures transparency, cost-efficiency, and adherence to health and safety regulations, fostering long-term client trust through technical excellence and personalised service.
