Fire Stopping Around Doors in Urmston

Looking for fire stopping in Urmston? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Urmston and surrounding parts of Greater Manchester, with a door-by-door report and every remedial item priced separately.

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. We use the same method for buildings in Urmston.

Urmston FAQs

Will I get photos?

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Urmston?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Urmston is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

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

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Urmston, 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.
