Fire Stopping Around Doors in Stevenage

Whether it is a block of flats, a school or a care home in Stevenage, our fire stopping works follow the same door-by-door method and report format.

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 Stevenage.

Common questions in Stevenage

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

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

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Stevenage?

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

Will I get photos?

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

Can you fire stop a whole building?

This service covers fire stopping around doors and nearby penetrations. Wider compartmentation surveys need a specialist survey, which we can arrange.
