Fire Sprinkler System Testing & Maintenance

A fire sprinkler system is only effective if it works when you need it. That’s why regular testing and maintenance is just as important as installation.

We offer one-off testing and scheduled maintenance plans for both residential and commercial systems across London and the South East.

Our service includes:

  • Water pressure and flow rate checks

  • Visual inspection of pipework and heads

  • Functional testing of control valves and alarms

  • Clearance checks around each sprinkler head

  • Compliance reporting for insurers or authorities

How often should a system be tested?

  • Residential properties: at least once a year

  • Commercial sites: quarterly or as specified by BS EN 12845 / BS 9251

If you’re not sure when your last test was, we can help you get back on track with a full system health check — no pressure, just honest advice.

Fire Sprinkler System FAQs

  • A fire sprinkler system uses heat-sensitive sprinkler heads connected to a water supply. When the temperature near a head reaches a certain point (usually around 68°C), it activates and sprays water to suppress the fire — only in the affected area.

  • Sprinklers are strongly recommended in flats, HMOs, and new builds — especially in open-plan layouts or properties with limited escape routes. Some local authorities and building regulations now require them in certain projects.

  • Residential systems are typically smaller, designed to protect lives and contain fires until the fire service arrives. Commercial systems are built for larger spaces and often need to protect stock, machinery, or structural elements — and follow different technical standards.

  • Residential systems should be checked annually. Commercial systems often require quarterly checks and annual maintenance under BS EN 12845. We offer both.

  • Not always — but they are increasingly required in new residential developments, high-rise buildings, and care facilities. They’re also highly recommended by insurers and fire safety professionals.

  • Yes. We regularly retrofit sprinkler systems into homes, HMOs, and commercial premises. We’ll assess your property to find the best layout with minimal disruption.

  • Our full service includes design, supply, installation, testing, certification, and optional maintenance. We handle everything — so you don’t have to.
