Fire Glazing Surveys
Surveys that identify what fire glazing you have and what needs fixing.

Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
Fire glazing remedial works are the repairs and replacements that bring glazed fire-resisting elements back into line with their required performance: replacing unsuitable glass, refitting beads and seals, sealing service penetrations, and replacing frames that cannot be shown to be rated.
Whether the building is in central Ayr or the wider KA7, KA8, KA9 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Irvine, Kilmarnock, Newton Mearns. Ayr lies roughly 19 km from Kilmarnock, within our Ayrshire coverage.
Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.
We price each defect separately so you can approve urgent items first.
Intumescent strips painted over during redecoration can be replaced without changing the glass.
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.
We can phase work in Ayr around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Ayr budgets are not open-ended.
If an existing frame in a Ayr building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Sector guides below cover blocks of flats, retail and leisure units and other buildings in Ayr.

Yes. We survey and install in Ayr and across Ayrshire, including the KA7 district and nearby Irvine.
Ayr is in Scotland, so work needs a building warrant and follows the Building Standards Technical Handbooks, with the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 covering occupied premises.
