FIRE EXTINGUISHER SERVICE

At SJH Safety Solutions, we know that fire extinguisher servicing is about more than just having extinguishers on the wall — it’s about making sure they’ll work when it matters most. Our annual fire extinguisher servicing in Mildenhall and surrounding areas ensures every unit on your premises is BS 5306-3 compliant, correctly maintained, and ready to perform in an emergency.

Whether you operate a small office in Mildenhall, a busy Suffolk warehouse, or manage multiple UK sites, your fire extinguishers are a legal requirement and a vital line of defence. But they’re only effective if inspected, tested, and certified every 12 months by a competent fire extinguisher technician.

We take the stress out of fire safety compliance by delivering fully certified extinguisher checks that help you meet legal obligations, satisfy insurers, and keep your team safe. With clear documentation, expert advice, and friendly on-site service, SJH Safety Solutions ensures you stay compliant — year after year.

🧯 Prices start from £7.99 per extinguisher + £49.99 call-out fee.

Why are they Required?

Fire extinguishers are a critical first line of defence in any fire emergency—but they’re only effective if they’re properly maintained. Over time, extinguishers can lose pressure, suffer damage, or deteriorate through environmental exposure and daily wear. That’s why annual fire extinguisher servicing isn’t just recommended—it’s a legal requirement under UK fire safety regulations.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, business owners, landlords, and responsible persons are legally obliged to maintain fire safety equipment in efficient working order. This includes ensuring extinguishers are inspected and serviced at least once every 12 months by a competent technician, in line with BS 5306-3 standards.

✅ Regular servicing ensures:

  • Your fire extinguishers will work in an emergency

  • Pressure levels are safe and compliant

  • Corrosion, leaks, or tampering are identified early

  • Expired or discharged units are replaced promptly

But fire extinguisher servicing is about more than legal compliance. It protects your team, your building, and your operations. It also proves your business is meeting insurance and safety obligations—important for landlords, facility managers, and employers in Mildenhall and surrounding areas.

At SJH Safety Solutions, we don’t just check your gauges. We provide comprehensive, professional fire extinguisher servicing to ensure your equipment protects lives, meets the law, and gives you complete peace of mind.

How do we do them?

At SJH Safety Solutions, our annual fire extinguisher servicing is delivered by fully qualified technicians, following BS 5306-3 standards and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. We provide a reliable, compliant service that helps businesses in Mildenhall, Suffolk, and nearby areas stay fire-safe—without disrupting daily operations.

Each service begins with a comprehensive visual inspection of your extinguishers. We check for corrosion, tampering, leaks, or damage. We also confirm that every unit is correctly located, securely mounted, and suitable for the fire risks in its specific environment.

Our fire safety technicians will:

  • ✅ Check pressure gauges and internal pressure (where applicable)

  • ✅ Ensure tamper seals and safety pins are intact

  • ✅ Inspect discharge mechanisms, nozzles, and hoses

  • ✅ Clean, maintain, and service each extinguisher as required

  • ✅ Replace worn or missing components (tags, seals, etc.)

  • ✅ Record service details digitally and apply dated service labels

We’ll also advise if any extinguishers are due for extended servicing (5, 10, or 15-year intervals), or if replacement is needed due to condition or age.

Once your service is complete, we provide a detailed report and compliance certificate—ideal for fire risk assessments, insurance records, or audit purposes.

With SJH Safety Solutions, you’re not just checking a box—you’re putting preventative protection in place, ensuring your fire extinguishers are safe, effective, and fully compliant with UK fire safety law.
