Fire Glazing Surveys
Surveys that identify what fire glazing you have and what needs fixing.
Learn more →For Pitsea buildings, we supply, replace and check fire glazing remedial works wherever the fire strategy depends on it, working to the tested system rather than the glass alone.
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 Pitsea or the wider SS13, SS14, SS16, SS12 districts, we can survey and quote. We also cover Basildon, South Benfleet, Wickford. Pitsea is about 15 km from Southend-on-Sea, the largest town in our Essex coverage.
We plan remedial programmes around residents, pupils or staff, with phasing and clear communication.
Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.
Intumescent strips painted over during redecoration can be replaced without changing the glass.
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.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Pitsea budgets are not open-ended.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
We can survey and quote for public buildings, schools and colleges and other building types in Pitsea.
Yes. We prioritise by risk and agree phases with you.
Yes, before and after for every item, plus a completion schedule.
Yes. We survey and install in Pitsea and across Essex, including the SS13 district and nearby Basildon.
Survey timing in Pitsea 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.

A survey in Pitsea confirms sizes, access, existing evidence and fixing conditions.
We set out the system, glass, evidence and programme, with a fixed price.
We install, photograph seals and fixings before closing up, and hand over the schedule.
Send sizes, photos of any glass marks or your inspection report and we will come back with the right tested system.
