Why Fire Protection Matters
Fire safety law has evolved recently. With updates to the Fire Safety Order and stricter duties for building owners and responsible persons, protecting your building is more than good practice, it’s a legal necessity.
In Devon and Cornwall, local councils and fire rescue services emphasise sound building regulations and fire safety standards in alterations and new builds. Ensuring correct fire protection and compartmentation reduces risk, helps protect lives, saves property damage, and can lower insurance costs.
Our Approach
We believe great fire protection starts with planning and precision. Here’s how we work:
- Assessment & Advice
We review your building plans or existing structure, identify potential fire risk points, and design solutions tailored to your project. - Certified Materials & Techniques
We use fire-rated boards, sealants, barriers and door systems from trusted manufacturers, all fitted by qualified installers. - Integration with Other Trades
Our fire stopping work is coordinated with drylining, plastering and partitioning to ensure seamless finishes without compromising safety. - Regulatory Assurance
Every project is completed with documentation, testing or certification where required, helping you pass building control and fire safety inspections confidently.
