Our Story
Our family has provided fire protection service since 1983.
A Message From the Owner...
"Smith Fire Extinguisher Co. was built right here in the Fresno/Clovis area with one clear purpose: to provide dependable, code-compliant fire protection without pressure or confusion.
Fire protection has been part of my life from the very beginning. I grew up around fire extinguishers, learning the trade hands-on while working alongside my uncle, Derrick Scelzi of Midstate Fire Extinguisher Co. I officially entered the fire protection industry and became licensed in 2009, building on decades of real-world exposure to the business.
That experience shaped how we operate today — doing things the right way, staying current on code requirements, and putting safety ahead of sales.
Today, we are a family-run company serving apartment communities, property managers, and local businesses throughout the Central Valley, including Fresno and Clovis. Our licensed technicians are committed to clear communication, dependable service, and long-term compliance.
Over the years, I've worked with apartment communities, warehouses, manufacturing facilities, retail locations, schools, churches, and small businesses throughout the Central Valley. Every property has different fire protection needs, but our approach remains the same: provide honest recommendations, reliable service, and help customers stay compliant without unnecessary upselling."

“Called Tom on Saturday for a fire extinguisher recharge. He came the following Monday on time and recharged my fire extinguisher, 20 minutes later and it's done. I didn't even have to go anywhere, Tom comes to you! I will most definitely be using his service from now on."
