Birkenhead FAQs
Is the price fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a fixed price for the scope agreed. If you add to the scope later, we price the extra before doing it.
How quickly can you survey in Birkenhead?
Most surveys in Birkenhead 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 Birkenhead?
Yes. We work across Birkenhead and the CH41, CH42 and L2 postcode districts, plus nearby places such as Liverpool, Kensington and Wallasey.
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.
