Both services are based on the same belief that you must regularly inspect and test your fire safety equipment to be sure it will work properly in the event of a fire. However, while fire alarm testing focuses only on your fire alarm system, a fire safety inspection takes into account every component of your fire safety system, including:
While it can be easy to forget to schedule regular fire inspections with all the other demands you have as a business owner, it’s important to keep up with your inspections.

Professional Fire Inspection FAQs
Fire safety inspections are required by law in Florida for certain types of buildings and facilities. The specific requirements and frequency of inspections may vary depending on the local jurisdiction and the type of occupancy, such as commercial buildings, multi-family residential buildings, and public facilities. It’s essential to check with the local fire department or authorities to determine the exact regulations and compliance requirements for fire safety inspections in your area.
For optimal safety, it’s recommended to schedule a fire safety inspection annually. Regular inspections ensure that fire detection systems, extinguishers, alarms, and other safety equipment are in top condition, ready to respond effectively in case of an emergency. Additionally, specific industries or buildings may have regulations mandating more frequent inspections. Stay proactive in safeguarding your space by adhering to these recommendations and consulting local regulations for tailored guidance on the frequency of fire safety inspections.
The duration of a fire inspection can differ depending on the size and complexity of the building, its occupancy type, and the thoroughness of the inspection required. For a typical small to medium-sized commercial building, a fire inspection may take anywhere from 1 to 3 hours. Larger or more intricate structures may require additional time for a comprehensive assessment of fire safety systems, emergency exits, fire hazards, and compliance with local fire codes and regulations.
Typically, you’ll receive fire inspection results within a few days to two weeks after the inspection. The timeframe can vary based on the inspector’s workload, the size and complexity of your property, and any issues found. Some inspectors provide a preliminary verbal report immediately after the inspection, followed by a detailed written report later. For urgent safety concerns, inspectors usually notify property owners immediately. Many modern inspection services use digital tools to expedite reporting, potentially delivering results within 24-48 hours. Always ask your inspector for an estimated timeline when scheduling the inspection to set clear expectations.
