What our fire glass replacement service includes in Workington

Broken fire glass replacement is the repair of cracked, shattered or damaged fire-resistant panes with glass of a type the frame's evidence allows, refitted with the correct beads and seals. A cracked fire pane may not perform as tested, so it should be made safe and replaced promptly.

  • Identification of existing fire glass from marks
  • Disposal of broken glass
  • New seals and beads where needed
  • Records for your fire safety file

What to check before ordering fire glass replacement in Workington

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.

Discontinued products

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

Interim arrangements

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

Workington coverage and nearby towns

Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Workington, including the CA14 districts, and in nearby Whitehaven, Dumfries, Carlisle. Workington is about 48 km from Carlisle, the largest town in our Cumbria coverage.

Fire glazing rules in England

England Which rules apply?

Building work in England is covered by the Building Regulations 2010, with fire safety guidance in Approved Document B and impact safety guidance for glazing in Approved Document K.

Once a building is in use, the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires the responsible person to maintain fire safety measures, including fire-resisting glazing. The Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 add duties for multi-occupied residential buildings, including fire door checks in buildings over 11 metres.

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.
