Fire Stopping Around Doors in Stamford

Looking for fire stopping in Stamford? We inspect, repair and replace fire doors across Stamford and surrounding parts of Lincolnshire, 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.
