Project details
Helix FMS was commissioned by Yorkare Homes to undertake passive fire protection works at Westfield Haven Care Home in Goole.. The works were based on findings from a recent Fire Risk Assessment (FRA) and focused on the roof spaces above the ground floor - critical areas for ensuring effective fire compartmentation in a care setting.
Care homes house vulnerable residents and require the highest level of attention to fire safety. Maintaining effective compartmentation is essential to safeguarding life, complying with regulations, and enabling safe evacuation in the event of an emergency.
Our certified team attended site to carry out fire-stopping works in line with the issues raised in the FRA and our on-site assessment. All remedial works were delivered by our expert passive fire installers, in full compliance with British Standards and fire safety regulations. Materials used included tested and approved products designed to restore compartmentation integrity in care home environments.
All identified fire safety breaches were successfully addressed, leaving the roof spaces of Westfield Haven Care Home compliant with fire safety legislation and fully protected. The project was delivered with precision, care, and minimal disruption to the care home’s daily operations. An essential factor when working in residential care environments.
This project highlights Helix FMS’s proven expertise in supporting care homes and healthcare providers with passive fire protection services. From risk-based assessment to certified remediation, our team ensures facilities like Westfield Haven are safer, compliant, and prepared for inspection.
