TJ Fire and Security, installers and suppliers of fire protection equipment and training, has completed the purchase of Prompt Fire Protection.

TJ Fire and Security was established in 1973 and protects large and small businesses across the country with installation and maintenance of fire and security products. Formed in 1991, Prompt Fire Protection offers “cost effective, efficient and reliable” maintenance of fire extinguishers in London and the home counties. Both companies are based in Welwyn Garden City.

Steve Green, proprietor of Prompt Fire Protection, said: “I chose to partner up with TJ Fire and Security because I am planning to retire in a few years, and I want my existing clients to be looked after by a local company that has the same values as I do. TJ Fire and Security offer lots of additional services so I am hopeful that will also benefit my clients with their wider needs, saving them money long term as well.”

Natalie Higgins, managing director of TJ Fire and Security, added: “We are very pleased and proud to be working so closely with Steve, he has serviced and maintained his clients to an excellent standard, something we have always admired. We look forward to working with his clients and bringing them on board with our business with the same level of care, attention and workmanship that Steve has supplied them since 1991. Moving forward, TJ Fire and Security’s partnership with the Prompt Fire Protection management team will focus on continuing to integrate our two businesses, and we look forward to working alongside Steve as we do this.”
