Smoke Alarm Services 🚨

Smoke alarms work quietly in the background, but they need regular upkeep to keep your home safe. They aren’t just a “set & forget” device — routine maintenance ensures they’ll work when you need them most.

Here’s what we recommend:
⚡ Testing – Check that your alarm is working properly.
⚡ Cleaning – Remove dust & debris for optimal performance.
⚡ Battery Replacement – Keep your alarm powered & ready at all times.

All smoke alarms rely on batteries — whether as the main power source or as a backup in hard-wired units. These can range from AA, AAA, 9V alkaline or long-life lithium-ion batteries.

What to watch for:
⚡ Batteries have a limited lifespan & need replacing.
⚡ A chirping sound every 30-60 seconds signals a low battery.
⚡ A low battery won’t trigger a full alarm, but it’s a sign to replace it.

Still hearing beeping even after changing the battery? Let us help! 

A constantly beeping smoke alarm is usually a sign of a faulty or expired unit — & we know how frustrating & disruptive that sound can be!

With 40+ years of experience & thousands of serviced smoke alarms, we can often identify your alarm model from a photo or video & guide you on how to silence it before we arrive for an inspection & replacement.

Frequent false alarms? Your smoke alarm might be in the wrong spot! Placement plays a big role in its effectiveness & installing it too close to certain areas can cause unnecessary triggers, especially near:

🏡 Kitchen – Cooking smoke can easily set it off.
🚿 Bathroom – Steam can trigger false alarms.
🏠 Wall Cornices & Air Vents – Airflow can interfere with detection.

Other factors like stove proximity & ventilation quality can contribute to false alarms. If your alarm keeps going off, it might also be expired or faulty.

Did you know it’s highly recommended to have a smoke alarm in every bedroom, especially if doors are closed while sleeping? While not yet mandatory in Victoria, it’s a smart safety choice — modern bedrooms are filled with electrical devices, increasing the risk of fire.

Since you can’t smell smoke while asleep, a properly placed smoke alarm could be the difference between safety & disaster.
