Fire Door Repairs in Heavitree: questions

Can you fill a large gap with extra intumescent strip?

Not as a general fix. Gaps outside tolerance are usually corrected by re-hanging, lipping or adjusting the frame, because oversized intumescent strips are not a substitute for a door that fits.

Do you use the original manufacturer's parts?

Where they are available and appropriate. Otherwise we use components with suitable fire test evidence for the door type.

Which fire safety law applies in Heavitree?

Heavitree is in England, so the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 applies, together with the Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 for multi-occupied residential buildings.

Can you price remedial work in Heavitree from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Heavitree, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.
