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.

So pleased with the work completed by Dave and his team. We hired them to build a single storey extension and couldn’t be happier with the result. Everything went smoothly with all work completed earlier than planned. All of the building work was completed to an exceptionally high standard, all without any issue or stress. Reliable, professional, a pleasure to work with.

In relation to what Daniel can do, this was a small job, but we were very grateful that he was happy to take it on and help us out. He was really receptive to text messages, was very accommodating when we had to change the original work date, and was keen to get back to us as soon as the counters were re-fitted, so we had a working kitchen again. Really lovely chap, and we'd happily have him back for any other work we may need. Highly recommend him.

Neale is lovely to deal with whilst being professional, punctual and skilled. I didn't believe builders like this still existed. He turned up on time, every single time he said he would. He produced a detailed written quote and then didn't increase it throughout the job. He and his side-kick, John, worked non-stop overcoming every issue our wonky victorian terraced could throw at them. I'm so relieved and impressed. He's now my go-to builder.

Endrit and his team were wonderful to work with - friendly and professional and nothing was too much trouble for them, despite me changing aspects of the kitchen renovation and install during the process. They went above and beyond to ensure that everything was perfect and that I was happy with all aspects. My new kitchen looks amazing and I can't recommend Endrit and his team highly enough - I have already recommended E Saint George to friends and will be getting them back to install my bathroom.

Paul was great. He came out very quickly and dealt with my daughter’s door really well. It needed trimmed down due to carpets having been fitted. The carpet fitting squad couldn’t deal with the door as it wasn’t a standard internal one. It was particularly heavy and had a strong spring chain going into its side. Paul managed it fine. I’m very happy to recommend him.
