Stroma Compliance Testimonials

"Our company has been established for over 40 years and specialises in the supply and installation of fire suppression systems.

A frequent problem is room integrity and an enclosure's ability to retain an extinguishant for the required hold period. Many people think they are able to seal a room to achieve the desired results, however there are many pitfalls and this is a very specialist area.

We have used Stroma both for room testing and room sealing works for many years now, as we need to know that the work will be carried out efficiently, with minimum disruption and most importantly effectively, Stroma are able to achieve all of these requirements. We have no hesitation in recommending Stroma, they are a professional outfit, who fully understand room sealing/integrity and work to the highest standards."

Stroma has provided air leakage testing and consultancy services to Carillion on in the region of 30 varied projects, located across the UK.

Building types have included schools, academies, offices, MOD and commercial buildings. Personally I have been working with Stroma since 2003, including in my previous role with another major Contractor, and directly influenced their subsequent appointments by Carillion.

On all of the projects, I have been extremely satisfied with the quality of service we have received. The professionalism and integrity displayed in their undertakings has been exemplary and they have shown a thorough working knowledge of the Building Regulations.

In particular Stroma stands out in their customer-focused approach, problem-solving ability and attitude, where on a number of occasions they have gone the extra mile when we have experienced last minute build problems when testing to a tight deadline.

Consequently I would have no hesitation in recommending Stroma to any organization needing to engage the services of an air testing and acoustic consultant.

"We wish to express our appreciation for the professional manner, developed from experience, demonstrated by [Stroma's] Steve Turner and his team in executing a building air test at our construction site in Harrogate. The help and assistance given to our staff in ensuring that the building was correctly air-sealed was paramount in providing a positive test result."

For the last 4 years Bovis Homes has had a UK-wide agreement in place with Stroma for the provision of air tightness services.

During that period, Stroma has undertaken in excess of 500 air tests at residential properties across the country. On many projects they have also provided associated consultancy services such as air tightness audits or design reviews. Furthermore Stroma have conducted many training sessions to our staff on achieving high levels of air tightness and build quality.

We know that Stroma is a reliable and professional partner we can rely upon to provide a timely, efficient and high-quality service with minimal disruption to our site operations.

Stroma's personnel have always delivered a professional, high-quality service and have also maintained good standards of health, safety and environmental performance when on site.

I would not hesitate to recommend their services to others.


"Following the successful completion of Milton Keyne's Christian Centre air-tightness audit, test and report, I felt it necessary to thank Stroma for their excellent performance and assistance throughout.

From the initial site visit and survey, through to the final test, Stroma's pro-active approach and support was very much appreciated. I look forward to working with Stroma again in the future, many thanks once again."

“Thanks for the results; also can you thank Brian Outhwaite and Simon Pettinger as they are a credit to Stroma.

The help they provide when we undertake the air tests is much appreciated; they go that extra mile in solving any problems that may occur before the test is undertaken. We have used other companies in the past and they don’t compare to the service we get from your engineers. We won’t hesitate in using you for all our projects.”
