|---|---|
| Fike | Approved installer |

Fire alarm work is not a licensed trade in the UK, so anyone may call themselves a fire alarm company. Third-party certification is how competence is actually evidenced, which is why our BAFE registration number is published rather than just the logo. You can check it against the BAFE register yourself.
Regulated activity
Fire safety work in England and Wales is governed by the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, enforced by the local fire and rescue authority. We are not a regulated profession with a statutory supervisory body, so there is no professional title or authorising state to declare. Our work follows the relevant British Standards, principally BS 5839-1 for fire alarm systems, BS 5266-1 for emergency lighting, and BS 5306-3 and BS 5306-8 for fire extinguishers.
Prices
We do not publish prices. The cost of fire safety work depends on the building, its size and construction, the system category your fire risk assessment calls for, and the condition of anything already installed. A price given before someone has seen the building is a guess. We survey first, then quote in writing, and the survey is free.

Accreditations and how to verify them
Flame Shield London is a trading name of Electro Heating Limited, a company registered in England and Wales, company number 12609754. The same company also trades as Green Electro Heating for its electrical and heating work. One company, one set of accreditations, two trading names.
That matters when you check our credentials, because public registers list the legal entity, not the trading name. Search the BAFE register for 303184 and it returns Electro Heating Limited, not Flame Shield London. That is the same business, and here is how to confirm it:
| What you are checking | What you will see |
|---|---|
| BAFE Registered Organisation ID | 303184, listed as Electro Heating Limited, London |
| Scheme held | BAFE SP203-1 — Fire Detection and Alarm Systems (Design, Installation, Commissioning, Maintenance) |
| Third-party certification body | NICEIC |
| Companies House | Electro Heating Limited, company no. 12609754 |
Verify us on the BAFE register by entering 303184 in the Registered Organisation ID field. You do not have to take our word for any of it.
What our BAFE registration covers, and what it does not
BAFE SP203-1 is a third-party certificated competency scheme for fire detection and alarm systems: design, installation, commissioning and maintenance. That is what we hold and that is what it covers.
It does not cover fire extinguisher servicing, fire risk assessment, emergency lighting or fire door work, which sit under different BAFE schemes that we do not currently hold. We carry out that work to the relevant British Standards — BS 5306 for extinguishers, BS 5266-1 for emergency lighting, BS 476-22 or BS EN 1634-1 for fire doors, and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 for fire risk assessments — and we will tell you so plainly rather than let a badge imply something broader. If a supplier is vague about the scope of their registration, ask them which scheme number they hold.
We are also an approved Fike installer and C-TEC certified. The registration above is third-party certificated by NICEIC, which is the body named on the BAFE record for 303184. We do not display our parent company's gas or home-improvement registrations here: they are held by Electro Heating Limited for other work and have nothing to do with fire detection.
