Fire Extinguisher Testing, Inspection & Servicing in Sutton & South London
A fire extinguisher is only as good as its last service. At Kojo Electrics, we provide professional fire extinguisher testing, inspection, and servicing for businesses, landlords, and public buildings across Sutton and South London, making sure your equipment is correctly maintained, fully compliant, and genuinely ready to work the moment it's needed.
Fire safety isn't somewhere to cut corners. Let Kojo Electrics keep your extinguishers properly serviced, documented, and compliant — so your building, your staff, and your tenants stay protected.
What our fire extinguisher servicing covers
- Annual basic service – a full external check of pressure, weight, seals, hose, and nozzle by a competent technician
- Extended servicing – internal examination and discharge testing at the required 5 or 10-year interval, depending on extinguisher type
- Compliance documentation – service labels, reports, and a maintained fire logbook for every unit
- Correct positioning and signage checks – confirming extinguishers are sited, mounted, and signed in line with current guidance
- Replacement and recharge – swapping out or refilling units that no longer meet the required standard
Why regular servicing matters
Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, the person responsible for a building must keep firefighting equipment in efficient working order — and BS 5306-3 sets out exactly what that means in practice. Extinguishers need an annual service by a competent, typically BAFE-registered technician, alongside an extended service every five years (or ten years for CO2 units) that checks the extinguisher inside and out, not just the surface. Monthly visual checks by staff are a useful habit, but they don't replace this professional servicing — an out-of-date label is treated the same as a missing extinguisher by both insurers and fire officers.

- Full compliance record – documented reports and logbooks ready for insurers or fire safety inspections

More Information
How often do fire extinguishers need to be serviced by law?
Every fire extinguisher needs an annual service by a competent technician in line with BS 5306-3, alongside monthly visual checks carried out in-house. Beyond that, an extended service is required every five years for water, foam, powder, and wet chemical extinguishers, and every ten years for CO2 units, after which most types are due for replacement or full overhaul.
Who is legally responsible for fire extinguisher maintenance?
The "Responsible Person" under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 — typically the employer, landlord, or building manager — must ensure fire extinguishers are properly maintained and kept in efficient working order. This duty can't simply be handed off to staff carrying out monthly checks; professional annual servicing is a separate, non-negotiable requirement.
What's the difference between an annual service and an extended service?
An annual service is an external check — pressure, weight, seals, hose, and general condition — carried out every 12 months. An extended service goes further, involving an internal examination and, for most types, a discharge test to confirm the extinguisher still performs correctly on the inside, not just externally.
Can I do monthly fire extinguisher checks myself?
Yes, monthly visual checks (confirming the extinguisher is present, unobstructed, undamaged, and shows the correct pressure) can be carried out by anyone reasonably competent within your organisation. However, this doesn't replace the mandatory annual service, which must be carried out by a certified technician — usually BAFE SP101 registered — under BS 5306-3.
What happens if my fire extinguishers aren't serviced on time?
An overdue or missing service puts you in breach of your fire safety duties, and enforcing authorities generally treat it the same as not having extinguishers at all. It can also invalidate your insurance, since most insurers now expect documented proof of BS 5306-compliant servicing before they'll pay out on a related claim.
Do all fire extinguishers eventually need replacing?
Yes. Most water, foam, powder, and wet chemical extinguishers are replaced or fully refurbished after 10 years, while CO2 units are pressure-tested at the 10-year mark rather than on the 5-year cycle other types follow. Any extinguisher that's damaged, corroded, or fails a service check must be replaced immediately, regardless of its age.
Do I need different extinguishers for different areas of my building?
Yes. The right extinguisher type and coverage depends on the specific fire risks in each area — a kitchen needs different provision to an office or a plant room, for example. This is determined by your fire risk assessment and the recognised guidance on selection and positioning, rather than a single extinguisher type covering the whole building.
