"Richard is a life saver! We can't recommend him enough. He came to our rescue after-hours on a Friday evening when our smoke alarm was beeping. He was extremely professional and very attentive — he even vacuumed up any slight debris from the work. Incredibly knowledgeable and kept us fully informed every step of the way."

"I had a great experience with Richard from The Smoke Alarm Doctor. He replaced all our combination smoke/CO detectors after they malfunctioned. Super responsive — arrived within 12 hours of my initial enquiry. He also changed all the batteries in the smoke-only detectors free of charge. Highly recommended!"
