Fire Extinguisher Inspection in Quebec City

We cover the whole city from our local base: Vieux-Québec, Sainte-Foy, Beauport, Charlesbourg, Limoilou, Sillery, Cap-Rouge, Vanier and Loretteville. Whether you run a downtown office tower, a government or institutional building, an Université Laval or CEGEP pavilion, a restaurant or a condo building, we do the full job: monthly visual inspection, annual maintenance, internal exam at 6 years, hydrostatic test at 12 years and recharge when needed. Because we are close by, travel is short and we get there fast. Every building is tracked in Canuck360, which keeps your certificates, deadlines and compliance current. Call 418-905-3396.
