Smoke & heat alarm installation carried out by an electrician by TMB Electrics

Smoke & heat alarm installation

TMB Electrics fits smoke and heat alarms for homeowners, landlords and businesses in Banstead and Surrey. We plan the work around your rooms, wire or replace the detectors, then test them and leave the documentation the job requires.

I keep things straightforward: you deal with me from the first quote to the final check, with clear advice and no surprises along the way.

Who needs smoke and heat alarms

  • You need smoke and heat alarms when a storey has no working detector, a kitchen has none, or a let or workplace now requires them.
  • A landing, bedroom or hallway with no working smoke alarm leaves you without a warning if a fire starts.
  • A heat alarm in the kitchen or garage warns on a fast temperature rise without sounding every time you cook.
  • A rented house or house in multiple occupation needs a working smoke alarm on each storey and a heat alarm in the kitchen.

  1. 01

    Arrival and room check

    We walk each storey with you, mark where each smoke or heat alarm will sit, and isolate the circuit we will use.

    Fitting the alarms

    We mount the detectors, connect them to the mains or to each other, and restore power once they are in.

  3. 03

    Test and documents

    We test every new alarm, show you that it sounds, and leave the documents the work requires.

Smoke & heat alarm installation prices

Smoke and heat alarm installation with TMB Electrics starts from £150. The written quote then follows the number of detectors, whether they interlink, and whether they join an existing circuit or need a new one.

  • Replacing one tired detector on an existing lighting circuit sits at the lower end of that starting price.
  • A full set of interlinked smoke and heat alarms on several floors costs more than a single swap.
  • A new circuit for the alarms is notifiable work and is priced on top of a like for like replacement.
