Coverage around EH1
Whether the building is in central Edinburgh or the wider EH1, EH2, EH3, EH7, EH9, EH6 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Musselburgh, Kirkcaldy, Dunfermline. Edinburgh is the largest town in our Edinburgh and the Lothians coverage.
Typical Edinburgh fire glazing jobs
Fire glazing work generally falls into three groups: replacing glass in existing fire-rated frames, installing new glazed screens and doors, and fixing defects from inspections. We cover all three in Edinburgh.
Where existing frames have no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options instead of assuming a rating.
Regulations that apply in Edinburgh
Scotland Which rules apply?
In Scotland, building work needs a building warrant under the Building (Scotland) Regulations 2004, with fire guidance in Section 2 of the Building Standards Technical Handbooks rather than Approved Documents.
For relevant premises, the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006 place duties on the duty holder to maintain fire safety measures, which include fire-resisting glazing.
Scottish guidance has its own approach to escape routes and compartmentation, so glazing designs are checked against the Technical Handbooks and the warrant drawings.
