If you are not satisfied with the job, we will inspect it and have any problems fixed. If we believe the job is good and you do not, we will jointly agree on an independent expert to provide a report at our expense, and fix any problems found. Until this is done, you need not pay for the job. If problems are not fixed within a fortnight, any advance will be refunded.

Only if no problems are found by the expert, will you be asked to pay the agreed price for the job and half the cost of the report.

If the job is done to get your bond back on leaving a rental property, the job is only considered good when the agent or landlord is satisfied.

If payment is made in advance and the job not done, the payment will be refunded.
$10,000,000 Public Liability

Fire Inspection Requirements in NSW: AS 1851 Compliance is Now Mandatory

In New South Wales (NSW), compliance with AS 1851 is now a mandated requirement for the routine inspection, testing, and maintenance of fire protection systems. This standard ensures that fire safety equipment like alarms, sprinklers, extinguishers, and hydrants function effectively during emergencies.

What Does AS 1851 Cover?

AS 1851 applies to all essential fire safety systems and outlines requirements for:

Scheduled Maintenance: Regular servicing intervals (e.g., monthly, annually).
Testing: Functional checks and pressure testing for reliability.
Record Keeping: Comprehensive documentation of inspections.

Mandated Responsibilities for Building Owners

Engage Qualified Professionals: Inspections must be carried out by licensed technicians under the FPAS Scheme.
Submit Annual Fire Safety Statements (AFSS): Certifies compliance with AS 1851 and must be lodged with local councils.
Address Defects Promptly: Non-compliant systems must be repaired without delay.

Why Compliance Matters

With AS 1851 now mandatory, it ensures that fire safety systems are reliable, protecting lives and property in emergencies.

Regular fire inspections are not just a legal obligation but a critical investment in safety.
