Fire Alarm Service

The electricians in our network handle the full range: smoke detector replacement, hardwired and battery-backup installs, carbon monoxide detector setup, full interconnection so every unit sounds together, and diagnosis of nuisance alarms and wiring faults. They test the entire system and confirm it meets code before they leave.

Swapping a battery is fine on your own, but hardwired detectors, interconnected systems, and any new wiring call for a licensed electrician. A pro makes sure the connections are safe, the units are placed correctly, and the whole system functions as one, which is exactly what protects your family when it matters.

Cost depends on how many detectors you need, whether the work is hardwired or battery-powered, and if new wiring or interconnection is involved. A single hardwired detector replacement often runs $120 to $250 installed, while a full multi-unit interconnected system typically lands between $400 and $1,200. Your electrician gives you a clear price before any work begins.
