The City of Church Hill is proud to introduce our fire department, Church Hill Fire and Rescue. Our team consists of 10 public safety officers, 2 paramedics, 5 EMTs, 5 Hazmat technicians, and 28 trained firefighters. Together, they protect the 9.4 square miles within Church Hill city limits.

Our main fire station is located at 300 East Main Boulevard, within the Church Hill City Hall building. This station is equipped with two Class 1 pumpers and a quick attack pumper/rescue vehicle. We also have a second station located off Highway 11W at 201 Fudges Chapel Road, which houses two Class 1 pumpers and our training facilities. Our third and newest station is located at the Church Hill Public Works building on Silver Lake Road.

The Church Hill Fire Department is committed to protecting our community by responding quickly and effectively to emergencies.

Insurance and ISO Information

The Insurance Services Organization rating of a community has a direct effect on the insurance premiums that individuals pay on their homes and on commercial buildings. The ISO conducts an inspection of the fire department and its capabilities, the available water supply in the area (the closest fire hydrant and water flow from that hydrant) and the emergency communications facility. When the inspection is complete, a rating is assigned to the city. The ratings range from Class 1 being the best possible rating which lowers insurance premiums to Class 10 which is the worst possible rating and is assigned to areas which offer little to no protection. The City of Church Hill received a Class 5 rating for 2008.
