Fire Stopping
Fire stopping helps to halt the spread of fire and save lives as part of your passive fire protection. It plays an important role in fire protection, sealing the point of entry through which flames could spread. At LW Safety, we use third-party, IFC-accredited operatives, bringing knowledge and expertise to your premises in Wembley, Harrow and Uxbridge.
Compartmentalisation is common in nearly all commercial buildings, stopping fire from rapidly spreading from room to room. This gives time for people to evacuate safely, protecting escape routes. Over time, maintenance and refurbishment work can penetrate this barrier, endangering the lives of those using the building.
With fully trained operatives to NVQ Level 2, registered by an independent IFC inspector, you can count on us. All the products used conform to BS 476-20 and -22, and are approved by the manufacturer for use in fire stopping.
Fire Stopping Surveys
As part of our work, we can identify any shortcomings in the integrity of your structures with fire stopping surveys. This then allows us to recommend remedial measures to be taken, helping you to remain compliant with the law when it comes to the safety of your building. The specialists we use can work in a number of disciplines, including:
- Penetrations Sealing
- Fire Barriers & Cavity Barriers
- Steel Protection – Board Systems
- Steel Protection – Reactive Coatings
- Steel Protection – Rendering
- Mastic Works
- Air Sealing for full SAP & BREAM compliance
Through electronic tagging and recording, we can ensure accurate work is carried out, giving a clearer picture for any future work required. We use only the best operatives, combining over 90 years of experience to help protect your building with fire stopping.
