Eligibility and coverage are checked again before a provider can submit an estimate
Suitable for supplying and surface-mounting three standalone long-life photoelectric smoke alarms in an accessible home after the property layout and required locations have been confirmed.
The provider reviews the rooms and levels you describe, confirms suitable surface locations against the alarm instructions and the property context, mounts three supplied standalone alarms, labels their installation or replacement dates where provided, and tests each alarm.
Scope boundaries: This offer covers three standalone battery alarms on ordinary accessible mounting surfaces. It does not guarantee whole-property compliance until bedroom, level, property-use, existing-system, and location details are confirmed on site.
No fixed provider price or appointment is published here. Eligible providers define the work, milestones, price and timing in an estimate; Serproz adds no customer platform fee, and the customer chooses whether to accept it.
Only a claimed provider who passes the applicable verification and exact-job capability checks can submit an estimate. Nothing is charged when you post; after acceptance, review the provider's recorded job price before funding the agreed milestones.

Quote basis
This page does not publish a fixed provider offer. Each eligible provider estimate must state the proposed scope, milestones, price and timing before the customer chooses one.
What to confirm before you request
- Is this an owner-occupied home, rental, boarding house, sleep-out, or another property type?
- How many bedrooms and levels are there, and where are the bedroom doors and current alarms?
- Are the existing alarms standalone battery units, hard-wired, interconnected, or part of another system?
- Are all proposed locations on ordinary accessible ceilings below normal working height?
- Do you need exactly three alarms, or might the confirmed property layout require a different quantity?
