Furzton fire damper testing

Why it’s worth doing now in Furzton

When something goes wrong, people ask what checks were in place. Damper test records are part of that answer, and they only exist if the testing happened. It’s easy to lose track of when the work was last done on a quieter site.

What you pay depends on the size of the system, the condition it’s in and how easy it is to reach. We give you a fixed price before work begins, so there are no surprises.

How the job changes from site to site

Ceiling voids and risers

Plant rooms and risers can be damp, which leads to corrosion. Signs of corrosion or water are recorded so the cause can be tackled.

Offices and retail

In shared buildings, some dampers sit inside tenants’ space. Access to each area is planned with whoever manages the building.
