Questions people ask
Do you cover all of East Riding of Yorkshire?
Yes. We take on fire-rated ceilings across East Riding of Yorkshire, including Hull and Beverley, and nearby areas such as North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire and Lincolnshire.
Is an asbestos survey needed for older buildings in Beverley?
For any building put up before 2000, yes, before we strip out an existing ceiling. We will ask for the register or survey of the area.
Who decides if we need a fire-rated ceiling?
Your fire strategy, fire engineer or Building Control. We can quote to their specification and point out where a tested system will meet it.
Can I put normal light fittings in a fire-rated ceiling?
Only if the system allows it, usually with fire hoods or protected fittings. Unprotected openings can void the rating.
