Fire alarm systems in Plymouth

We have been installing, servicing and repairing fire alarm systems across the South West for 26 years. We are based at Airport Business Centre in Plymouth, so when you ring us you get somebody local who can be with you the same day if it is urgent.

We work with care homes, managed blocks, hotels, offices, churches, dental practices, factories and shops. If you are responsible for a building, we can take the fire alarm off your list of things to worry about.

Buildings we look after

Fire alarm requirements vary enormously by building. A care home needs a different category of system from an office, and a listed church needs a different approach again because you cannot run cable through historic fabric.

We work regularly in care homes, managed residential blocks, hotels, offices, industrial units, retail premises, churches and dental and medical practices. Two recent examples are below.

Dartmoor Dental

A dental practice has a particular set of problems with fire alarm servicing. You cannot sound alarms during treatment, you cannot have engineers in a surgery while it is in use, and a practice running full appointment lists has very little slack in the day.

"We service the fire alarm system at Dartmoor Dental, working around their appointment book so treatment is never interrupted. Certification is issued after every visit and filed for their records."

St Martin's Church, Liskeard

A category L3 fire alarm system installed into a listed building while the roof was being replaced, solar panels were going on and the interior was being decorated.

Completed to programme so community groups could get back into the building.

We service it to this day. 

Priced for your needs

What it costs

Fire alarm work is priced on the building, because the number of devices and the category of system drive the cost more than anything else. We have written a guide to what fire alarm systems actually cost which explains what moves the price.

Servicing is quoted per visit based on the number of devices. Ring us with a rough idea of the building and we will give you a realistic figure over the phone.

AMS were very helpful and professional. It was was nice to put a face to the person behind the phone.
