Fire Compliance for Property Agents & Real Estate Agencies
Scheduled fire compliance for property agents and real estate agencies across Bundaberg, Hervey Bay, Maryborough and the Wide Bay — extinguishers, emergency lighting and equipment maintained across your whole rental portfolio on one agreement.
Fire safety for property agents & real estate
Property agents carry the compliance burden for hundreds of rental properties — extinguishers in units and townhouses, emergency lighting in complexes, and test & tag for furnished homes. When a tenancy turns over, owners ask for proof. When an insurer or auditor calls, you need records. Chasing a different contractor for every address does not scale.
Every rental property needs maintained fire equipment — portable extinguishers at minimum, and often emergency lighting, test & tag or detection depending on building class. Property agents are the ones who coordinate access, track service dates, answer owner queries and prove compliance at every new tenancy. That is recurring work across houses, units, townhouses, duplexes and granny flats.
Mercury Fire Protection is a locally owned fire safety company based at Moore Park Beach, servicing property agents and real estate agencies across Bundaberg, Hervey Bay, Maryborough and the Burnett. We set up portfolio compliance agreements: you give us your property list, we schedule extinguisher testing and servicing, attend between tenancies when needed, and provide owner-ready compliance records after every visit. One local provider, one invoice, nothing lapses.
Whether you manage 20 rentals or 200, we coordinate tenant access, bulk-schedule suburbs to minimise travel, and maintain extinguishers, emergency lighting and test & tag for furnished properties where required. When a property sells or a new owner joins your rent roll, we can survey, install missing equipment and bring the address up to standard before the next lease is signed.

Property Agents & Real Estate — FAQs
Common questions about fire protection for property agents & real estate. See our full FAQ page for more.
Do property agents need a fire compliance contract for rental portfolios?
A portfolio compliance agreement is the most reliable way to keep every rental property current. Instead of booking extinguisher tests property by property, one agreement with Mercury Fire Protection covers your rent roll on a scheduled program — between-tenancy checks, automatic reminders and owner-ready records after every visit.
What fire equipment do rental properties typically need?
Most rentals require maintained fire extinguishers. Furnished properties, unit blocks and commercial tenancies may also need emergency lighting, test & tag and detection depending on building class. We service portable equipment, emergency lighting and detection across rental portfolios.
Can one fire company manage equipment across my whole rental portfolio?
Yes. Mercury Fire Protection manages extinguishers and fire equipment for property agents across Bundaberg, Hervey Bay, Maryborough and the Burnett. You provide the property list; we bulk-schedule by suburb, coordinate tenant access, and maintain compliance records for every address on your rent roll.
What fire compliance do property agents need for unit blocks and townhouses?
Unit blocks and townhouses may require fire extinguishers in each dwelling, emergency and exit lighting in common areas, hose reels or detection depending on building class and age. Property agents should ensure both individual tenancies and common areas are maintained to the applicable standards.
What happens when a tenancy ends — does fire equipment need re-checking?
Best practice is to inspect fire safety equipment at every tenancy changeover. Vacant periods are the ideal time to check extinguishers and confirm the property is compliant before the next lease. Mercury Fire Protection offers between-tenancy compliance checks as part of portfolio agreements.
