What to check before ordering fire glass replacement in Wokingham

Make it safe first

A broken pane can be a cut hazard and a gap in compartmentation. We can make it safe on the first visit while the replacement is cut.

Interim arrangements

Whoever is responsible for fire safety may need temporary measures until the new pane is fitted; we can advise on practical options.

Discontinued products

When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.

England Which rules apply?

In higher-risk buildings, broadly 18 metres or seven storeys with two or more homes, the Building Safety Regulator is the building control authority. England is also phasing out BS 476 references from Approved Document B, with the remaining fire-resistance references due to go in September 2029.
