Carswells Fire Engineering was founded by David Carswell and Martin Wells, two well-known names with decades of experience in fire suppression. Soon after, Stephen Jones joined the team, bringing a reputation for precision and engineering excellence. Together, they form a hands-on, technically led board that guides every aspect of the business. LPS 1048 Approval was achieved in the first year of trading, a remarkable achievement in the sprinkler industry, which demonstrates the level of skill and pace on show at CFE.
Our approach is simple: do the job properly, deliver with pride, and never compromise on quality. Unlike larger, slower-moving corporate providers, we’re fast, agile, and built for performance. We’ve grown by reputation, with most of our work coming from repeat clients or referrals.
We’ve made our name tackling the difficult jobs- from retrospective installs in food production facilities to complex special risk environments. We’re set up to deliver multi-million-pound projects without the usual red tape, bureaucracy or delays.
Our team is experienced, capable, and proud to be part of a company known for quality, efficiency, and a can-do attitude.
