About

# A fire and life safety company. For overachievers.

Fire and life safety is our passion. It’s all we think about. We leverage our hard-earned expertise to give people peace of mind, confidence, and more time to pursue their core businesses.

Our approach is distinctly positive. We don’t deal in fear. On the contrary, we celebrate the peace of mind that comes with feeling prepared, safe, and completely secure.

## Our Mission

When you’re passionate about something, it shows. It drives you to action. And ultimately, it affects the lives of others. That’s why we’re always working to make a meaningful impact to as many lives as possible.

## The CertaSite Story

Jeff Wyatt had a vision for what he wanted in a fire protection and life safety company. The man had been in the industry almost 30 years. He believed it was time for fresh thinking in the world of fire and life safety. So, in 2018, his vision became a reality, and a new kind of fire protection and life safety company was born: CertaSite.

At CertaSite, we see possibilities others don’t. We are building relationships and partnerships others won’t. And we offer competencies others can’t. All because we’re ever fascinated with helping our partners stay prepared, positive, and profitable.

Today, CertaSite is the premiere fire protection and life safety company. We exist to keep people and property safe all while disrupting the industry in ways no company comes close to.
