WHY DO I NEED A FIRE COMPARTMENTATION SURVEY?

Risks Can Be Hidden Behind Walls & Ceilings

Fire compartmentation is designed to slow the spread of fire and smoke, giving occupants more time to escape and firefighters more time to respond. However, damaged fire stopping, poor workmanship or unsealed service penetrations can compromise your building’s fire protection without you even knowing.

Our surveys identify these hidden defects, helping you understand where improvements are needed before they become a serious safety or compliance issue.

WHAT'S INCLUDED?

A Detailed Inspection of Your Building's Passive Fire Protection

Our experienced surveyors inspect the hidden areas of your building where fire could spread, assessing the effectiveness of existing compartmentation and identifying any defects or breaches.

Every survey typically includes:

  • Inspection of walls, floors and ceiling voids
  • Fire stopping around pipes, ducts and cables
  • Identification of damaged or missing compartmentation
  • Photographic evidence of defects
  • Clear recommendations for remedial work
  • Comprehensive survey report

What is a Fire Compartmentation Survey?
