Buying a Home?
Don’t Forget Smoke Alarm Compliance

Before you sign the dotted line, make sure the property meets QLD’s strict smoke alarm laws. For just $99, we’ll inspect the alarms and give you peace of mind .

To avoid delays at settlement, the property you’re buying must meet QLD smoke alarm laws.

In Queensland, all homes sold must have photoelectric, interconnected smoke alarms compliant with Australian Standard 3786:2014. These alarms must be installed in every bedroom, hallway and on each level.

The seller must ensure the property complies with QLD’s smoke alarm laws before the contract settles. The seller is required to confirm this compliance by declaring it on the Form 24 (Part C), which is lodged with the Land Title Office at settlement.

If the smoke alarms are not compliant at the time of sale, the seller may be in breach of legislation, and the buyer could be at risk of delays, legal issues, or unexpected upgrade costs after moving in. As a buyer, it’s in your interest to confirm everything is in place before settlement.

Buyer's Compliance Check

A detailed report outlining any non-compliance issues if found.
Clear recommendations for upgrades if required.
Confidence that your home is safe and legally compliant before you move in.
Flexible scheduling with quick turnaround times.
Trusted professionals: licensed and experienced electricians.

Julie Cotter

From the time that we first called Anne at Coast Smoke Alarms until Chad the technician, we experienced exceptional and expedient support from the team.
Anne was able to share her knowledge of processes that needed to be undertaken, and Chad was quickly on-site to address our needs. Chad was personable and professional in explaining what we needed to do in isolating the problem alarm, and after only a couple of days Chad was back and able to address our identified faulty alarm. We would highly recommend this team.
