Request a Fire Inspection

The Castlegar Fire Department currently performs fire inspections only for commercial properties within the city boundary.


The purpose of the inspection is to ensure your business meets the life safety standards to protect your customers, employees, and yourself from the harmful effects of fire. Compliance also protects your property and equipment investment.

Businesses with a change of owner are require to get a new Business Licence. When moving into an existing occupied floor area with no change to occupancy type (such as a new doctor’s office in an existing doctor’s office, hair or nail salon, or shared office space) may continue to operate as usual prior to our inspection. All fire and life safety protection systems are in an operable condition and have been serviced within the last year.
