Fire Stopping Around Doors in Saint Peters

From the CT10 district outwards, we cover Saint Peters and neighbouring towns such as Broadstairs and Margate for fire stopping works.

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 Saint Peters.

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