Smoke alarms for larger and multi-level homes
Having a functioning smoke alarm is crucial to the safety of your property. In bigger homes with several levels or wings, coverage and audibility become especially important.
Interconnected alarms solve this: when one detects smoke, they all sound, so bedrooms at the far end of the house or on another level still hear the warning.
Many 1980s–90s homes still have their original alarms, or a mix added over time. Extensions and granny flats may not be covered at all.
A review of every alarm’s age, position and condition is a simple way to improve safety.

Homes with high entry voids, open staircases and long hallways can make alarm placement less obvious than in a compact single-level house.
We look at how smoke would travel through your particular layout and position alarms so the people sleeping furthest away still get a clear warning.
If you are also planning other electrical work – a lighting upgrade or a new split system – it can make sense to bundle the smoke alarm review into the same visit and the same free quote.
