Symons Fire Protection, Inc.

What an incredible week it’s been! As we wrap up National Apprenticeship Week, we want to give a massive shout-out to our current class of apprentices. Your hard work and dedication are the backbone of our future.

We also want to extend a sincere thank you to our management and leadership teams. Throughout the week, they took the time to sit down, share dinner, and offer personal stories and insights from their own careers. Seeing that level of support and appreciation from the top means everything.

Here’s to building a safer future together! 🛠️🔥

From Rancho Santa Fe to La Jolla — this is where we work, and we wouldn't have it any other way.

San Diego builds some of the most extraordinary custom homes in the country. The craftsmanship here is different. The standard is higher. And the fire protection protecting those homes should match.

Symons Fire Protection has been part of this community for years — working alongside the builders, architects, and homeowners who refuse to cut corners. We design systems that disappear into the architecture. We install with precision. We show up on time.

If you're building in San Diego, we'd love to be part of your project.

We had an amazing Halloween Ice Cream Social. Our team enjoyed fantastic flavors from Ben & Jerry's while having some fun in costumes. What a treat to have such a fun team! Stay safe and enjoy the night!

With Halloween being tomorrow we want to remind everyone of some fire safety!

The NFPA reports an annual average of 832 home fires started with decorations, with 47% being too close to a heat source and 33% starting with candles (2019-2023).

Follow these quick tips to prevent a fire hazard:

Costumes: Avoid long, trailing fabric. Make sure masks have large, clear eye-holes.

Candles: Use battery-operated candles or glow sticks in jack-o'-lanterns. If using real candles, keep them far away from anything that can burn.

Decorations: Keep dried flowers, cornstalks, and paper away from light bulbs, heaters, and open flames.

Exits: Keep all escape routes clear of decorations.

Alarms: Test your smoke alarms!
