Fire Stopping

At Golloborda Construction Ltd, our fire stopping services are a cornerstone in ensuring the safety of various types of buildings – from the homes where families live to the commercial spaces where businesses thrive, and the social housing that supports communities.

Our fire stopping service is all about creating barriers against fire and smoke. We fill up gaps and joints in walls, floors, and ceilings to stop fire from moving from one place to another. This is key to keeping people safe and limiting damage if a fire starts.

In homes and flats, we make sure that every nook and corner is secure. We understand that families need to feel safe where they live. Our team checks and fixes any spots where could fire, using materials that are right for the job and last a long time.

At Golloborda Construction Ltd, we understand that utilities like electricity, water, and gas are vital for any building. However, these can also be areas where fire risks are high. That’s why we provide specialised fire prevention services for all types of utility risers – the vertical spaces in buildings where these utilities run.

Utility risers are like the building’s lifelines, carrying important services such as electric, water, and gas. If a fire starts in these areas, it can quickly spread, causing major damage and risk to life. Our job is to prevent this from happening.

Electricity is essential but can be a fire risk if not managed properly. We focus on making sure all the electrical wires and equipment are safe and well-protected against fire. While water pipes might not seem like a fire risk, the areas around them can be. We make sure these spaces are properly sealed to stop fire from spreading.

Fire Prevention

Penetration Seals

In the business of fire protection, the importance of properly sealed penetrations cannot be understated. At Golloborda Construction Ltd, we specialise in installing, changing, and repairing penetration seals, including smoke seals and linear seals. These services are crucial in ensuring the safety and integrity of buildings in the event of a fire.

Penetration seals are used to close off gaps and openings in buildings, particularly where services like pipes and cables pass through walls and floors. These seals play a critical role in stopping fire and smoke from spreading through these openings.

We fit new seals in buildings, be it during construction or as part of an upgrade. Our team carefully chooses the right type of seal, whether it’s a smoke seal or a linear seal, based on the building’s needs and layout.

At Golloborda Construction Ltd, we’re committed to enhancing building safety with our Compartment System services. These services are all about stopping fire from spreading through different parts of a building. By dividing the building into compartments, we can contain fire and smoke, giving people more time to get to safety and reducing damage.

A Compartment System involves creating sections within a building that can resist fire for a certain amount of time. We do this by using special materials and techniques to strengthen walls, floors, and ceilings. This way, if a fire starts, it stays in one area and doesn’t move quickly to other parts.

We start by looking at the building’s layout. We plan where to put these compartments, making sure they fit well with the building’s design and use. Next, we get to work installing the compartments. This means using fire-resistant materials to reinforce parts of the building. We’re careful to do this in a way that doesn’t get in the way of how the building is used.
