Are there any companies that will maintain a diy fitted
burglar alarm.

I've not heard of one, for understandable reasons.

I think you'd be better off telling your insurance company
you don't have/use an alarm and pay the rise in premium.
You'll still be quids given the money you've saved not having
to pay for a maintenance contract.

But my insurance co INSIST on an alarm.


Find another insurer then.


and pay a much higher premium ....


You must live somewhere very "colourful" - I've never seen an alarm
requirement on any insurance quote.


When asked about the alarm when I insure the house the only question is it a
NACOSS approved alarm? I just say no.
