Fire extinguisher inspection in London
Portable fire extinguishers are one of the existing precautions a fire risk assessment looks at. Inspecting and servicing them is a separate piece of work, and its scope and pricing are being confirmed.

TECHNICAL / LEGAL REVIEW REQUIRED
This page does not yet state what this service covers.
Haven offers this service, and you can ask us for it. What is missing is the verified detail — scope, the legislation behind it, how often it should be repeated and what it costs. Rather than fill those in from general knowledge and present them as Haven’s position, they are left out until somebody with the relevant competence has checked them.
OUTSTANDING · Servicing standard, inspection interval, engineer competence, what a service includes as against a discharge test or replacement, and the treatment of extinguishers found to be out of date are all unverified. The reference mentions extinguishers only in passing, as one of the existing precautions a fire risk assessment looks at.
What an FEX actually records.
This page describes what the service is called and how to ask for it. The servicing standard, the interval, and what a service includes as against replacement have not yet been confirmed by Haven.
If you need the broader assessment that decides what firefighting equipment a building should have in the first place, that is the fire risk assessment.
LEGAL BASIS
Requires technical and legal review
Haven has not yet established which legislation applies to this service, so none is stated here. That is not the same as saying none applies. If you need to know the statutory position before instructing us, ask and we will confirm it in writing rather than guess.

Deciding what you need is a different job
