Local smoke alarm installation

Cost of installing smoke alarms

The cost of installing smoke alarms varies depending on the type of alarm and the number needed. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between £50 and £150 per alarm, including installation. Hard-wired systems may cost more due to the additional wiring required, while battery-operated alarms tend to be more affordable.

Who can install a smoke alarm?

Smoke alarms can be installed by professional electricians or certified installers who specialise in home safety systems. It’s important to hire a qualified expert to ensure the alarms are installed correctly and meet safety regulations.

How long does it take to install a smoke alarm?

Installing a smoke alarm typically takes 30 minutes to an hour per device, depending on the type and location. For larger systems that require multiple alarms or hard-wiring, installation may take longer.

Other smoke alarm installation FAQs

Can I install a smoke alarm myself?

Yes, you can install battery-operated smoke alarms, but it’s recommended to hire a professional for hard-wired systems.

How often should smoke alarms be replaced?

Smoke alarms should be replaced every 10 years, as their sensors degrade over time.

Where should smoke alarms be placed?

Smoke alarms should be installed on every level of your home, especially near bedrooms and kitchens.

Great service, and communication all along the way. Extremely professional, but still made sure he was doing what I wanted and not would be easier for him, consulting me at each decision. Kevin came with his apprentice,, and made sure that he was teaching Robbie both the technical skills but also the soft skills that will see him well in the future. Left the house cleaner than when it was came in! It may seem a small thing but I always have more trust in a tradesman who turns up in a sign written van.

Great communication from first minute. Took time to understand the situation (even if I didn't!) and gave me sound advice as to what was required. Turned up as agreed and completed the job, even doing a bit more than he had to so that i could get on. I gave him a wee challenge with drilling into tiles i didn't know were there, but Paul was decent and didn't complain. Just means I now know what's required when I change the bathroom next year... Recommended and will definitely utilise his services again.
