Key checks for Bow projects
Discontinued products
When the original glass is no longer available, the replacement must be covered by the frame's evidence or an assessment.
Read the marks
Most fire glass is etched or printed with its product name and classification. A photo of the mark speeds up quoting.
Why it broke
Repeated breakage can point to frame movement, door slamming or impact from trolleys. We look at the cause.
Which rules apply to fire glass replacement in Bow?
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.
How we work in Bow
Rated systems, not just rated glass

If an existing frame in a Bow building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Fixed written quotes
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Bow budgets are not open-ended.
Building types we cover in Bow
We can survey and quote for schools and colleges, student accommodation and other building types in Bow.
Broken Fire Glass Replacement: Bow questions
How do I know what fire glass I have?
Look for an etched or printed mark in a corner of the pane. Send us a photo with the approximate size.
Can you replace just one pane?
Yes. Single panes can be replaced on their own, provided the replacement is compatible with the frame's evidence.
Do you work on occupied buildings in Bow?
Yes. We plan phasing, out-of-hours work and temporary protection so the building can stay in use where the fire strategy allows.
How quickly can you survey in Bow?
Survey timing in Bow depends on access, the size of the building and how urgent the defect is. Tell us your deadline when you enquire and we will confirm a date before you commit.
