Fire stopping and compartmentation in Arun

Who owns the social homes in Arun?

Arun District Council still owns council homes in Arun and manages them directly, funded through its Housing Revenue Account. Housing associations also own and manage social homes in the area, and we can work for both.

What do we cover in Arun?

• Compartmentation surveys of risers, ceiling voids and roof spaces
• Sealing service penetrations with tested systems
• Cavity barriers and fire-rated batt systems
• Fire dampers coordination with specialists
• Penetration logs with photographs and product references

How do we deliver it?

Each penetration is numbered, photographed before and after, and logged with the product used, so your building safety case has evidence rather than assurances.

Which rules apply in Arun?

Under the Building Safety Act 2022, building work in higher-risk buildings (18 metres or 7 storeys and above, with at least two homes) needs Building Safety Regulator approval before it starts unless it is exempt; most repairs and like-for-like replacements are exempt, but heating systems, fuse boxes and glazing units are not. Approval can take up to eight weeks for existing buildings, so we build it into the programme.

What do fire stopping and compartmentation works cost in Arun?

We price fire stopping and compartmentation works in Arun after a survey rather than from a guide range, because the number and type of penetrations, access to risers and voids, and building height vary from block to block. Send us the details and we will arrange a visit.
