Our comprehensive service includes everything you need to make an informed decision about your property.
We visually confirm where smoke alarms are installed across accessible rooms and corridors, so you can quickly identify areas that have no alarm coverage at all.
We assess whether alarms are positioned in practical locations relative to sleeping areas and key exit paths, helping reduce the chance of delayed warning during overnight incidents.
We flag alarms placed too close to kitchens, bathrooms, or high-steam areas where false alarms are more common, as nuisance triggers can lead to alarms being disabled or removed.
We record visible factors such as high raked ceilings, bulkheads, vents, or ceiling fans that may affect smoke travel and alarm effectiveness, especially in open-plan Narre Warren East homes.
Where visible, we note whether units appear hardwired or battery powered and any obvious signs of age, damage, paint contamination or missing covers that may warrant replacement or electrician review.
Your report includes photos and straightforward comments on what we observed and where improvements are recommended, making it easier to brief an electrician or property manager.

This service is a visual inspection focused on confirming the presence and placement of smoke alarms in accessible areas. We record locations, note any obvious issues, and report where coverage appears incomplete or poorly positioned. Functional testing, electrical compliance checks and replacement works are typically handled by a qualified electrician or as part of a dedicated smoke alarm servicing program.
We inspect accessible internal areas such as bedrooms, hallways, living spaces and any connected corridors that form the usual escape route. We note where alarms are installed and whether their position looks practical for early warning. We also record visible factors like high ceilings, bulkheads or vents that could affect alarm performance. The outcome is a clear, photo-supported summary in your report.
They can. Some Narre Warren East properties include garages with internal access, enclosed alfresco areas, or sheds used as studios or home offices. These spaces may be used like part of the home but not treated that way when alarms were installed. We focus on the dwelling’s accessible internal areas and flag adjacent or converted spaces that may warrant professional advice on alarm coverage based on how you intend to use them.
Ideally, book it alongside your property inspection so you can deal with safety items early, especially if you’re buying a family home with multiple bedrooms or a complex layout.
