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.

I’m revising my original 5-star review after the repair failed 6 months later. While I got a prompt response to my initial warranty request, a fortnight was then wasted where my suggestions for dates went unanswered and an appointment was finally set only to get cancelled on the day. A request to specify a time for a new appointment has likewise been ignored. After 3 weeks without a bathroom light, I’m now paying for a repair with a new contractor rather than continue chasing such unreliable service.

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.

Danny called me straight away and gave me a fair quote which remained the same even though he had to replace the extractor fan he bought with an alternative product.

Aziz was a fantastic find. He arrived on time to quote for the work. The following day he again arrived on time and carried out the replacement of the fuse box. There were a number of extras that he was happy to carry out for me at a reasonable price. He even cleaned up afterwards. I would highly recommend him for any future work and I will use him again in the future.
