Hello,
Salus Fire provides fire-alarm design, installation, commissioning and maintenance in Cambridgeshire. Could you point us to the person coordinating those responsibilities for Maypole Gardens?
Before proposing involvement, we would like to understand what the commissioning contractor already covers and how alarm and emergency-lighting servicing will be arranged after opening. If there is a future review point, we would be pleased to introduce our service then.
