If a fire broke out right now, would your extinguisher be ready? Is it in the right location and the correct type for the fire? If you're unsure, you're not alone. That’s where Jackson Fire & Security steps in.

We provide fire extinguisher servicing, maintenance, and installation across Swindon and surrounding areas. With over 30 years of experience, we help businesses meet legal obligations, stay compliant, and protect lives and property.

Are Your Fire Extinguishers Ready?

You probably pass your fire extinguishers every day. But are they mounted properly? Are they easy to reach? Are they due for servicing? We regularly find extinguishers that are out of date, missing pins, or the wrong type for the environment. These aren’t minor oversights; they're potential risks to your safety.

Legal Servicing Requirements

By law, every fire extinguisher must be serviced annually by a trained professional, as stated in British Standard BS 5306-3. We deliver thorough annual servicing with clear records, straightforward communication, and zero hidden charges.

Some extinguisher types require additional attention:

Type Basic Service Extended Service Overhaul (CO2 Only)
Water Every 12 months Every 5 years -
Foam Every 12 months Every 5 years -
Powder Every 12 months Every 5 years -
CO2 Every 12 months - Every 10 years
Wet Chemical Every 12 months Every 5 years -

We handle the scheduling and reminders, so you don’t have to keep track.

Commissioning: Getting It Right from the Start

New extinguishers must be commissioned on site before use. This process confirms they’ve been inspected, correctly pressurised, and installed where needed. Skipping this can invalidate your fire risk assessment and possibly your insurance.

We handle every commissioning properly, with no shortcuts.
