# Recurring inspection base

A term used when buying fire protection.

The buildings under a standing test-and-inspect obligation, counted by site.

Code requires the work, so this base is about as durable as small-business revenue gets, and it is the reason this trade prices above a project contractor. What matters is the count of sites and the frequency each carries, since one building on quarterly service is worth four on annual. Ask for the site list with frequency and last-service date: a base with lapsed sites on it is a base somebody stopped calling.
