Basingstoke FAQs

How quickly can you survey in Basingstoke?

Most surveys in Basingstoke can be booked within a few working days. Tell us about any deadlines, such as a lease end or a fire risk assessment action, and we will try to fit around them.

Do you cover all of Basingstoke?

Yes. We work across Basingstoke and the RG21, RG24 and RG22 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Dummer, Odiham and Tadley.

Can you work out of hours in Basingstoke?

Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Basingstoke offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.

Why is the annual test done out of hours?

After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
