Requirements in relation to the positioning of smoke alarms in your property are dictated by the Law. Please note that as a result of the relocation or replacement of a smoke alarm, residual damage may be caused from either the relocation/replacement or the original installation.
This damage may vary due to the type of original smoke alarm, the cable hole size and/or existing paint coverage, which may have experienced some discolouration from the smoke alarm or from plastering. If you require repairs, a plasterer/painter can be provided upon request at your own additional cost.
