Fire Damper Remedials

Fire damper remedial works are a crucial part of maintaining a building’s fire safety systems in line with the Building Act 1984 and associated fire safety legislation.


Over time, dampers can become damaged, blocked, or fail mechanically, which may prevent them from containing fire and smoke as designed.

Remedial works ensure that all dampers are restored to full operational condition, meeting the requirements of

BS 9999:2017, BS EN 15650:2010, and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.


By addressing faults promptly, these interventions protect lives, safeguard property, and ensure that buildings remain fully compliant with legal obligations and industry best practice.

Professional Fire Stopping Services Across the UK

Fire stopping is a vital part of a building’s passive fire protection system. It is designed to seal openings and service penetrations through fire-rated walls, floors, and compartments, helping prevent the spread of fire, heat, and smoke throughout a building.

Without correct installation, inspection, and maintenance, fire stopping can become ineffective due to:

  • Poor or incomplete installation
  • Unsealed service penetrations
  • Damaged or disturbed fire stopping materials
  • Incorrect products used for the application
  • Building alterations or new services passing through compartments
  • Lack of inspection and maintenance

At Hey Service Group, we provide professional fire stopping inspections, remedial works, installation, and reporting to help buildings remain compliant, protected, and properly maintained.

Why Fire Dampers Require Remedial Works


Fire damper remedial works are essential to maintain the integrity of a building’s passive fire protection. Even after installation, dampers can become damaged, misaligned, or fail to close properly due to wear, debris, or mechanical issues. Remedial interventions ensure that any faults are corrected promptly, restoring full functionality and reliability.


By addressing these issues, remedial works protect occupants, reduce the risk of property damage, and ensure that the building remains fully compliant with UK fire

safety regulations.


Standards for Fire Damper Remedials in the UK

In the UK, fire damper remedial works are carried out to ensure that existing systems remain fully compliant with key fire safety legislation and standards:


  • BS 9999:2017 – Code of practice for fire safety in the design, management, and use of buildings, covering the maintenance and effectiveness of passive fire protection systems.
  • BS EN 15650:2010 – Specification for fire dampers, including performance requirements and testing protocols.
  • BS 9991:2015 – Fire safety in the design, management, and use of residential buildings, ensuring remedial actions maintain occupant safety.
  • Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 – Legal obligation for owners and managers of non-domestic premises to maintain fire safety systems in good working order.
  • Local Authority and Insurance Requirements – Many insurers and local fire authorities require documented remedial works, testing, and maintenance to confirm ongoing compliance.



Fire dampers should be inspected, tested, and, where necessary, remedially repaired at least every 12 months by qualified engineers to ensure they operate correctly and meet all legislative requirements.
