Fire Stopping Around Doors in Tiverton

Tiverton landlords, managing agents and facilities teams can book fire stopping works with straightforward reports and fixed prices.

In short: fire stopping is the sealing of gaps and openings in fire-resisting walls and floors so fire and smoke cannot pass through. Around a fire door it mainly means the gap between the door frame and the wall, which must be sealed as well as the door itself.

Which fire safety law applies in Tiverton?

Tiverton 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.

Will I get photos?

Yes. Every sealed location is photographed before and after, and logged.

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

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

Do you need to remove architraves?

Often, yes. The frame gap is usually hidden behind the architrave, so we remove and refit it to inspect and seal properly.
