Standards & Procedures

We at P S Applications Ltd have always strived to achieve the best quality of work for our clients. To this end we have put in place certain procedures to ensure that when a contract is completed our client can have every confidence that it is done correctly and will perform its function in a fire emergency.

1. When we first visit a site we carry out a survey which lists all the relevant information from our client’s representative right down to which toilets we can use. This is to ensure the smooth running of a contract with everyone knowing what they are doing and their various responsibilities.
2. When arriving on site all operatives report to the site manager for H&S induction.
3. We always insist on being provided with A3 drawings from site. These are used to indicated what work is undertaken and where. A copy of these drawings are included in the operation and maintenance manuals.
4. All fire stops are labelled with our company name and contact No, name of installer, name of checker and date. These labels are not applied until the fire stops are complete and have been checked.
5. Intumescent paint is applied in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. Our operatives have humidity and temperature gauges to ensure conditions are right for application.
6. Wet film thickness checks are carried out during application of intumescent paint and dry film checks upon completion. Our operatives have electronic dry film thickness meters.
7. Upon completion of all work a certificate of conformity is issued to our client stating materials employed and what has been achieved. Certificate of Conformity.

The above is the core of our procedures and can be tailored to certain contracts which have more specific requirements relating to quality.
