Fire protection services for social housing providers
We support housing associations, local authorities and property management companies in maintaining safe, compliant homes across a wide range of social housing portfolios.
Fire stopping should be the number one priority
With increasing scrutiny on fire safety in residential settings, particularly in high-rise and multi-occupancy buildings, CMC Fire Stopping provides passive fire protection services that meet the highest standards and provide peace of mind for both residents and those responsible for their safety.
From legacy construction issues to varied building types and vulnerable tenants, we understand the pressures housing providers face in delivering safe homes whilst balancing regulatory demands, limited budgets and community expectations. That’s why we take a practical and transparent approach, offering tailored solutions that are effective, affordable and fully documented.
Fire stopping across occupied and void properties
Our fire stopping services are delivered with care and professionalism, whether we’re working in a live residential block or during planned maintenance of empty properties. We seal service penetrations through walls, floors and ceilings to preserve compartmentation and slow the spread of fire and smoke. All work is carried out using tested systems, with photographic evidence and installation logs provided for every job.
Compliant fire door services for tenant safety
Fire doors are a critical component of residential fire safety. Thanks to our in-house BM Trada certified fire door manufacturer and installer, we can fit fire doors in communal areas, flat entrances, stairwells, riser cupboards and more. Our doors are fully certified and installed to meet regulatory standards. We also offer fire door inspections and remedial works, helping social housing landlords stay compliant and protect key escape routes for tenants.
Compartmentation surveys and remedial works
Many social housing buildings, especially older properties, suffer from poor or incomplete compartmentation. Our detailed fire compartmentation surveys identify breaches, inconsistencies or historical non-compliance, and we provide clear, prioritised reports to support budget planning and safety upgrades. Our in-house team can complete all remedial works with minimal disruption to residents.
Meeting legal and regulatory obligations
We understand the evolving legal responsibilities of social landlords under the Fire Safety Act, Building Safety Act, and Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS). Our services are designed to help you meet these obligations confidently, with clear documentation, audit trails and ongoing support available.
