We Cover Falmouth — Town, Harbour, University Catchment and Coast
Falmouth is one of the busiest jobs in our patch — a university town, a harbour town, and a town with the highest concentration of HMO student lets in West Cornwall. We're 35 minutes from central Falmouth from our Praze An Beeble base, and we work right across TR11 and TR10.
We regularly navigate the period townhouses around Killigrew Street and Church Street (many converted to HMOs) and the waterfront commercial premises and restaurants along Arwenack Street and Discovery Quay. We understand the coastal exposure required for installations around Pendennis Castle and Pendennis Point, and we're deeply familiar with the student-let landlord ecosystem surrounding the Falmouth University Penryn Campus and Falmouth Campus.
Our work extends to the harbour-side businesses at Falmouth Docks and the surrounding villages and coastal communities at Mylor, Mawnan Smith, Constantine, Mabe, Flushing, Maenporth and Swanpool. With the National Maritime Museum and the bustling harbour as our local backdrop, we know the area intimately.
Whether you're a Falmouth HMO landlord needing BS 5839-6 grade D compliance, a harbour-area restaurant, or a Mawnan Smith homeowner, we'll quote, fit and certify to the right BS standard, on time, first time.

Falmouth Fire & Security FAQs
Do you cover Penryn, Mylor, Mawnan Smith, Constantine and Flushing as well as central Falmouth?
Yes — we treat Penryn, Mylor, Mawnan Smith, Constantine, Mabe, Flushing, Budock, Maenporth and Swanpool as part of our Falmouth catchment. They're all within 15-20 minutes of central Falmouth and we visit them regularly.
Do I need a BS 5839-6 fire alarm system for my Falmouth HMO?
If you let your property as an HMO (House in Multiple Occupation) in Falmouth, Cornwall Council requires a properly-fitted, mains-powered, interlinked fire detection system — typically BS 5839-6 grade D for most student HMOs. We install, certify and provide the documentation needed for Cornwall Council's HMO licensing scheme. Most installs are completed in a day.
How quickly can you get to a Falmouth property from your base?
35 minutes to central Falmouth from our Praze An Beeble base, 40-50 minutes to the outlying villages and coast. For emergency call-outs (fire alarm fault, intruder alarm activation), we aim to be on-site within 50-60 minutes anywhere in TR11/TR10.
Can you handle salt-air conditions on coastal CCTV at Pendennis, Discovery Quay or Maenporth?
Yes — we use IP66/IP67-rated, marine-grade housings on coastal installs. Salt-air corrosion is the single biggest reason coastal cameras fail prematurely; we spec equipment to outlast the prevailing south-westerlies, and recommend 6-monthly servicing on coastal sites.
