About Fire House Group | The Fire House Group

About Us

Our Team

Fireguard Ltd was the vision of our Managing Director Martin Wall (GIFireE, MIFSM, MIFPO) and was established in 2005. The business quickly grew and with the acquisitions of both South Anston Fire Extinguishers and West Yorkshire Fire & Security, became The Firehouse Group. We offer Fire Safety solutions to customers nationwide with offices in Barnsley, Gateshead, Durham, Leeds, Wakefield & Nottingham.

The business is now run by Martin Wall and Chris Wall. We are very proud to hold BAFE (British Approvals for Fire Equipment) accreditation, a prestigious mark of quality and reliability in the fire safety industry.

Our engineers

Our Engineers carry either BAFE (Fire Extinguishers) or EAL Level 3 Award (Fire Alarms) certification to ensure our customers are compliant and are all DBS Enhance checked. This, along with our knowledgeable office staff, allows us to ensure our customers legal fire safety responsibilities are met.

In 2019 we were looking for new local company to service and maintain our fire alarm systems. We previously used a national company. Having spoken the Chris at Fire House Group we engaged them to service and maintain our fire systems. Fire House Group and their staff as a whole have been fantastic from the top down.
They have met and exceeded our expectations at every turn. They are small enough to care but large enough to cope with whatever we have asked of them nothing is too much trouble.
The engineers have been proactive when visiting helping us reduce the amount of faults, offering advice on newer more cost effective solutions. We wholeheartedly recommend Fire House Group.
Dean Hubery

We have had two of your staff at our office for the last two days. I met them on the first day to show round again.
They have done a great job.
I've not been in the office all the time. One of our directors has called me to say how impressed she was with Dan and the way he was training Sam.
She went on to say Dan was explaining everything he was doing and why. When they were doing anything.
She commented on how refreshing it was to see them acting so professionally.

We found The Fire House Group on Google due to trying to locate a Nationwide fire safety specialist.
The team have been reliable, prompt with sending certificates and quotations. They have dealt with every request efficiently and we receive prompt communication from them to provide us with updates.
The team at the Fire House Group are very organised and we never have to chase for appointments.
We would highly recommend for any individual and/or business to use their services
Neeya Ahmed

We have been using The Fire House Group to provide a one stop shop for all our fire safety, installation, maintenance, and servicing requirements since January 2016.
During this time, I have found Chris and his team to be totally reliable, professional, well organised, and always happy to help.
I know that by continuing to use them I can trust that all our regulatory responsibilities are taken care of and our managers have a resource they can call on 24/7.
I’d be happy for you to contact me if you have any further questions regarding their service.
