Inspections, testing & Maintenance

Comprehensive Fire Protection Inspections, Testing and Maintenance

Keep your fire protection systems inspection ready. We perform NFPA aligned inspections and testing and provide photo rich reports your AHJ can use.

WHO WE HELP

Built for busy facilities.

If you manage life safety at a commercial property, this is for you. We work with property managers, facility and safety teams, and owners across manufacturing, warehousing, healthcare, assisted living, multifamily, HOA, restaurants, education, municipal, office, and retail. Whether you run one site or a portfolio, we keep you inspection ready.

Typical needs include quarterly and annual inspections, five year internal inspections, alarm device testing, kitchen hood service, extinguisher maintenance, fire pump and backflow testing, and help after deficiency notices. If something needs repair, we quote it and schedule the work. If reinspection is required, we stay with you until the job is closed out.

HOW IT WORKS

Our Simple, Code-Ready Process

Schedule & Scope

We confirm system types, site contacts, and access details. When possible we combine services so you can add fire pump and backflow testing to the same appointment. We set a firm arrival window and offer after hours options on request.

On-Site Testing & Service

Union technicians follow safety and NFPA procedures with minimal disruption. We coordinate access, verify devices, record readings, and note housekeeping items to prevent problems later. Communication stays clear and direct while work is in progress.

Report & Next Steps

You receive a digital report with photos in a format your AHJ can use. Deficiencies are prioritized with plain language notes. We provide a clear quote for corrections and a target schedule to complete the work. Re-inspection support is available.
