    01 / Signs You Need This

    When to arrange smoke alarm installation.

    Smoke alarms need replacing when they expire, fail or no longer suit the home.

    01

    Expired alarms

    Many Jannali homes still have alarms past their marked replacement date.

    02

    Chirping

    A chirp can mean a low battery or a failing unit.

    03

    Not interconnected

    Alarms that sound on their own can go unheard in other rooms.

    04

    Rental requirements

    Landlords must ensure working smoke alarms are installed.

    02 / What's Included

    A considered scope, based on the property.

    Smoke alarm work covers placement and wiring.

    01

    Hard-wired alarms

    Mains-powered alarms with battery backup.

    02

    Interconnection

    Alarms linked so all sound together.

    03

    Placement

    Positions chosen to suit the layout and NSW requirements.

    04

    Testing

    Every alarm tested at completion.

    03 / How the Job Works

    From the first conversation to certification.

    Smoke alarm installation follows four steps.

    01

    Enquiry and site assessment

    You tell us what is happening or what you want added. We look at the switchboard, the circuits involved and the property before recommending anything.

    02

    Written quote

    You receive a quote listing the alarms and locations.

    03

    Installation or repair

    Old alarms are removed and new alarms installed and interconnected.

    04

    Testing and certification

    The work is tested before we leave, and a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) is issued where the work requires one.

    04 / Safety & Compliance

    Electrical work completed properly in NSW.

    NSW requires working smoke alarms on every level of a home. Hard-wired alarms must be installed by a licensed electrician.

    Where the work requires it, we issue a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW).

    05 / Exclusions & Limitations

    What the service does not automatically include.

    Some items are separate.

    Ongoing testing

    Regular testing and battery checks remain the owner's or landlord's responsibility.

    Ceiling repairs

    Patching where old alarms are removed may need another trade.

    06 / Local Knowledge

    Sutherland Shire and St George homes are not all wired alike.

    Homes near Jannali station and the village are a mix of original brick houses and renovated family homes.

    Renovations are a good time to review alarm placement.
