Fire Sprinklers Save Lives

Virtually all fires start small but grow very rapidly. If a fire can be detected soon enough & fought immediately, it will take surprisingly little water to put it out.
About Us
Our Origins
Domestic Sprinklers was founded in 2000 by Colin Taylor as a specialist fire sprinkler company focused on the residential and domestic market. At the time, the sector was still emerging, and the company played a key role in helping to establish and develop the industry in the UK.
Building the Industry
Working closely with fire services, building control bodies and industry associations, Domestic Sprinklers helped demonstrate the effectiveness of residential sprinklers through live fire demonstrations attended by government and industry stakeholders.
Industry Firsts and Growth
In the early 2000s, the company delivered several industry firsts, including major retrofit projects for local authorities and care home providers. By 2004, more than 1,500 domestic installations had been completed, with notable projects featured on Grand Designs, Sarah Beeny’s Home Improvement programme and award winning design schemes.
National Recognition
Further recognition followed in 2008 when the residential and domestic sector was formally acknowledged by the wider sprinkler industry. Domestic Sprinklers was represented at a national level through the British Automatic Fire Sprinkler Association, helping to shape standards and best practice.
Innovation and Standards
In 2012, the company was appointed by BAFSA and the Building Research Establishment to deliver the first high rise retrofit sprinkler installation in the UK and Europe, proving systems could be installed cost effectively with minimal disruption. This approach is now standard practice across the industry.
Domestic Sprinklers Today
Today, Domestic Sprinklers operates from several regional locations across the UK, providing a complete design and installation service for domestic, residential and commercial fire sprinkler systems. All designs are produced in house using industry leading hydraulic calculation software to ensure consistent quality, compliance and service nationwide.
