BritCut provides professional fire stopping installation and passive fire protection surveys in Edinburgh and across Scotland. We seal penetrations and service openings in fire-rated walls, floors and ceilings to restore and maintain compartmentation — working across Edinburgh city centre, Leith, Livingston, Dunfermline and the wider Lothians on commercial, residential, healthcare, education and infrastructure projects.
Our Edinburgh fire stopping service covers the full range of passive fire protection installation: intumescent collars and wraps for plastic pipes; mineral wool and intumescent sealant systems for cable and service penetrations; fire-rated boards and pillows for open service voids; intumescent coatings for structural steelwork; and fire door installation and surveying. All installations are documented with photographic evidence and completion certificates.
BritCut works regularly with Tier 1 contractors including Skanska, Sir Robert McAlpine, ISG, Erith, and Morrisroe on fire stopping packages across Edinburgh and Scotland. We provide both new-build fire stopping installation and remedial works on existing buildings where non-compliant or missing fire stops have been identified.
BritCut carries out fire stopping surveys across Edinburgh to identify non-compliant or missing fire stops, producing a full schedule of remedial works required. This service is particularly valuable during building acquisitions, refurbishment projects, change-of-use conversions, and post-fire investigations. Our surveyors are experienced with the range of building types and construction eras found across Scotland.
Fire stopping is a legal requirement under the Building Regulations and the Fire Safety Act. Untreated penetrations through fire-rated compartments allow fire and smoke to spread through a building far faster than through open spaces, undermining the passive fire protection that gives occupants time to evacuate. All BritCut fire stopping installations in Edinburgh are carried out in accordance with relevant British Standards and manufacturer specifications by trained, accredited operatives.
