Fire Compartmentation Survey
Where a fire risk assessment cannot confirm that compartment walls and floors are intact, a compartmentation survey establishes whether fire and smoke could spread between compartments, commonly through service penetrations above ceilings and inside risers.

What changes the price
The band above is a guide. What a firm actually quotes for fire compartmentation survey turns on a handful of things about the building:
- gross internal area surveyed
- how much of the survey is intrusive or above ceilings
- number of risers and service penetrations
- whether a costed remedial schedule is produced
- out of hours access requirements
How the enquiry works
- You send the details of the building on this page.
- We pass them to a fire safety firm working in that area.
- That firm contacts you directly and quotes its own price.
- You deal with them from there. We take no part in the work.
