ABOUT US

TOP TIER FIRE PROTECTION SERVICES

Since 2007, Regional Fire has been helping businesses across Ontario stay safe, compliant, and fire-ready. But we’re not just inspectors—we’re problem solvers, partners, and people who care.

Whether you’re running a busy restaurant, managing a warehouse, or overseeing a facility with high-risk hazards, we show up with the same mindset: protect the space, protect the people.

We’re proud of our reputation, and even prouder of the long-term relationships we’ve built by being dependable, down-to-earth, and damn good at what we do.

Why We Do What We Do

Fire safety isn’t glamorous. It’s not flashy. But it saves lives.
That’s what drives us. Every tag, inspection, and service call we do is about making sure your equipment works when it matters most.

We’ve been called in after close calls. We’ve seen how fast things can go wrong—and how critical it is to have the right systems in place.

That’s why we take it seriously, even when no one’s watching.

          Who Needs Fire Safety Inspections?

          Every business—no exceptions.

          Businesses require fire safety inspections to stay compliant, protect property, and ensure the safety of employees and customers. Whether you operate a small office, a retail store, a restaurant, or a large industrial facility, regular inspections help prevent fire hazards, code violations, and costly fines.

          We specialize in fire protection services across Niagara, Hamilton, Oakville, and beyond, helping you meet fire safety compliance requirements.

          Industries That Require Fire Protection Services

          Restaurants & Commercial Kitchens
          With open flames, grease buildup, and high fire risks, restaurant fires can spread quickly without the proper precautions. Commercial kitchens require semi-annual fire suppression system inspections, annual fire extinguisher inspections, and exit sign inspections to comply with the Ontario Fire Code.

          Retail Stores & Warehouses
          Protecting inventory, employees, and customers requires fire extinguishers, fire alarm systems, sprinkler systems, and emergency lighting that are up to code. Annual fire safety inspections are essential to prevent fire code violations in Ontario and ensure safe evacuation routes in an emergency.

          Offices & Corporate Spaces
          Even low-risk environments face fire hazards from electrical equipment, overloaded circuits, and outdated fire safety systems. Regular fire alarm system maintenance, emergency lighting inspections, and fire extinguisher testing help workplaces stay compliant while protecting employees.

          Healthcare Facilities & Assisted Living Centers
          Hospitals, clinics, and long-term care homes serve vulnerable populations and require strict fire safety compliance in Ontario. Maintaining fire suppression systems, fire extinguishers, fire alarms, and emergency exit lighting inspections is critical for patient and staff safety.

          Data Centers & Server Rooms
          Sensitive electronics and high-powered equipment pose unique fire risks. Clean agent suppression systems provide essential protection but must be inspected semi-annually to ensure business continuity and equipment safety.

          Stay Compliant & Protected

          Fire protection is not just about compliance—it’s about safety, liability, and peace of mind.

          What’s Included in a Fire Safety Inspection?

          At Regional Fire, our fire safety inspections are thorough, efficient, and designed to ensure your business is fully protected and compliant with the Ontario Fire Code and NFPA standards. Whether you’re in Niagara, Hamilton, Oakville, or beyond, we help businesses understand what fire protection systems they have (or need) and how to maintain them properly.

          Not every building will have—or be required to have—all fire protection systems, but that’s where we come in. Our team will assess your property, identify what’s in place, and provide expert guidance on maintenance and compliance requirements.

          Here’s What We Cover:

          Fire Suppression Systems (Kitchen, Dry Chemical, Clean Agent)
          To ensure full functionality, we perform semi-annual suppression system inspections to verify activation mechanisms, nozzles, piping, and agent levels for businesses with wet chemical fire suppression systems commonly found in commercial kitchens with grease-laden vapours. We also specialize in dry chemical fire suppression systems and clean agent fire suppression systems.

          Fire Extinguishers
          We inspect all fire extinguishers for pressure levels, damage, and correct placement to ensure they’re ready in an emergency. Tamper seals, labels, and accessibility are also reviewed to meet the Ontario Fire Code and NFPA10 compliance requirements.

          Emergency Lighting & Exit Signs
          We conduct emergency lighting inspections to test batteries, bulbs, and circuits, ensuring they provide sufficient illumination during a power outage. Exit sign maintenance is also checked to confirm proper visibility and functionality.

          Fire Sprinkler Systems
          At Regional Fire, we work with top-tier fire sprinkler specialists to ensure your system is tested and maintained to the highest standards. Through our trusted partners, we offer comprehensive sprinkler system inspections, valve and water flow testing, and compliance assessments to guarantee rapid activation when it matters most. By working with the best in the business, we ensure your fire sprinkler system is fully operational and meets Ontario Fire Code and NFPA standards.

          Fire Alarms
          We’ve partnered with leading fire alarm experts to provide comprehensive system testing and maintenance. Our trusted subcontractors thoroughly inspect smoke detectors, pull stations, control panels, and signal transmissions to ensure every component is functioning properly. With access to industry-leading specialists, we guarantee that your fire alarm system maintenance meets the highest safety and compliance standards, keeping your business protected and up to code.
