A university town with a downtown of mid-rise offices and restaurants, plus a deep stock of large vintage apartment buildings.
Evanston combines a genuine downtown commercial district with a lot of student and multi-family housing, and the housing is where the volume is. Large vintage buildings with shared kitchens, laundry rooms and basement storage need common-area extinguishers, a maintained alarm system and emergency lighting on every stair.
The downtown restaurant trade runs the same six-month hood suppression cycle as the city, and Evanston enforces it. Being a separate municipality means separate inspectors and separate paperwork from Chicago — so a management company running property on both sides of Howard Street is keeping two sets of records, and it is worth having them on one schedule.

Yes. Evanston is inside our regular service area and we cover it for extinguisher inspection, recharge and sales, hood suppression systems, fire alarms and emergency lighting. Call 312-877-2355 to get on the schedule — we work Mon–Fri 9AM–4PM · Sat 10AM–12PM.

We are based at 1840 N Clybourn Ave in Lincoln Park, so the near-north and near-west suburbs are a straightforward run. Scheduling depends on the week, but we work Monday to Friday 9AM to 4PM and Saturday mornings — call 312-877-2355 and we will tell you honestly when we can be there.
Yes, both. Commercial work is the larger part of what we do — restaurants, offices, retail, apartment and condo buildings — but we also supply and service extinguishers for homeowners.
Call 312-877-2355 during business hours, or send us the details and we'll come back with a quote and a service window.
