Cavity Barriers in Exeter, Devon, Somerset, Bristol & Cornwall - Fire Protection Experts

Vesta Sol provides specialist underfloor fire protection throughout Devon, including Exeter, Plymouth, Torquay, Newton Abbot, Barnstaple and the surrounding areas.

We survey and protect concealed floor voids using suitable fire-rated barriers, boarding and penetration-sealing systems. Our work helps maintain the building’s fire compartments and reduces the risk of fire and smoke spreading unseen beneath floors.

If an FRA or compartmentation survey has identified an unprotected underfloor void, send the report to Vesta Sol for review and a clear quotation.

Fire-Rated Underfloor Voids

Local Service Coverage in Devon

Fire-resisting walls are intended to contain fire within defined areas of a building. Where an open floor void continues beneath the wall, fire and smoke may be able to bypass the compartment line.

Services passing through the void can create further weaknesses, particularly where gaps around cables, pipes, ducts and trunking have not been correctly fire stopped.

Vesta Sol installs fire-rated systems to continue compartment lines through concealed underfloor spaces. Every solution is selected according to the existing construction, required fire performance, supporting structure and service configuration.

Our Underfloor Fire Protection Services

Underfloor Fire Barriers

We install suitable cavity barriers and fire curtain systems beneath raised, suspended and timber floors. These systems are used to divide concealed voids and continue fire-resisting walls through the floor space.

Fire-Rated Boarding

Rigid barriers can be constructed using suitable fire-rated board systems where the structure and project requirements call for a boarded solution.

The complete installation includes the treatment of joints, edges, interfaces and penetrations in accordance with the relevant tested detail.

Underfloor Fire Stopping

We seal openings around services passing through fire-resisting barriers, including:

Electrical cables and cable bundles

Plastic and metal pipes

Cable trays and trunking

Ventilation and mechanical services

Mixed-service penetrations

Perimeter gaps and construction joints

Depending on the service and substrate, the installation may include fire batt, fire-rated sealant, pipe collars, wraps or another tested passive fire protection system.
