Intumescent Inspection – A Dedicated Division of M.H. Inspection Ltd

Intumescent Inspection is a specialist division of M.H. Inspection Ltd, focused exclusively on the inspection, testing, and compliance of intumescent fire protection systems. Delivered by highly qualified inspectors, our services ensure that all applications meet the required fire ratings, manufacturer specifications, and regulatory standards.

M.H. Inspection Ltd is an independent consultancy specialising in inspecting and surveying protective coatings for domestic, commercial, and industrial applications.

With a significant proportion of protective coating systems at risk of premature failure, our experienced team offers expert inspection and guidance throughout every stage of your project — ensuring optimal performance, full compliance, and long-term durability.

As part of our core services, we provide Lead Paint Surveys, Analysis, and Reporting, complete with detailed site-specific documentation and comprehensive lead paint registers. Using state-of-the-art Nitron X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) analysers, we deliver fast, non-destructive results across a broad range of environments — from private residences to large-scale industrial demolition sites.

We also offer lead sampling certification, whether samples are collected on-site by one of our qualified assessors or submitted to us independently.

All inspections are carried out by personnel trained to a minimum of NACE Level 2 or ICorr Level 2, with senior oversight from a Level 3-certified inspector (NACE or ICorr). Our commitment to continued professional development ensures our team operates at the highest industry standards.

With offices in Durham, Bristol, and Watford, we are ideally placed to support projects across the entire United Kingdom.
