Frequently Asked Questions — Fire Safety Sunshine Coast
How often do fire extinguishers need to be tested on the Sunshine Coast?
Every 6 months under AS 1851. An annual service and a full overhaul (pressure test) every 5 years is also required for most extinguisher types. Queensland’s Building Fire Safety Regulation 2008 mandates licensed technician inspections for all commercial properties — including the tourism and hospitality businesses that drive the Sunshine Coast economy.
What does fire extinguisher testing cost on the Sunshine Coast?
Essential Fire Protection charges from $120 for up to 5 extinguishers, and $12 per additional extinguisher. This includes the on-site inspection, testing, tagging, a full compliance report, and a free 6-monthly reminder. There’s No Travel Surcharge for regular Sunshine Coast service areas (Noosa to Caloundra). For strata complexes, accommodation providers, or multi-property portfolios, we provide a tailored quote.
What fire protection services do you offer on the Sunshine Coast?
We offer fire extinguisher testing, servicing and maintenance, supply, installation, repairs and recharging; fire hose reel servicing; emergency and exit light testing; fire blanket testing; fire hydrant and pump testing; smoke alarm testing and installation; fire door inspection; compliance reporting; evacuation plans; and fire safety training — all to Australian Standards and Queensland legislative requirements.
How long does a fire extinguisher service take?
For most Sunshine Coast businesses with 5–10 extinguishers, our technician is in and out in 30–60 minutes. Larger commercial sites or accommodation venues requiring multiple services will take longer, but we always work around your operations and guest schedules to minimise disruption.
What happens if an extinguisher fails the inspection?
We advise you on the spot. In most cases we can repair, recharge, or replace during the same visit — no second call-out required. If a new extinguisher is needed, we can supply and install the correct type and size the same day. We’ll never leave your site non-compliant without a clear plan.
What is included in the compliance report?
Your report includes: inspection date, technician details and licence number, each extinguisher’s location, condition and test result, any rectification carried out, your site’s overall compliance status, and the next service due date. Reports are delivered digitally within 24 hours and are accepted by auditors, insurers, and body corporate managers.

No travel surcharge for regular service areas.
Do I need to be on-site during the service?
Someone needs to provide access to the site, but you don’t need to supervise the inspection. Our licensed technician will complete all testing and tagging independently and deliver your compliance report the same day or within 24 hours.
