Fire Glazing Surveys
Surveys that identify what fire glazing you have and what needs fixing.
Learn more →When a fire strategy, inspection report or building control comment in St Albans calls for glazing tested to resist fire, our fire glazing remedial works service covers survey, supply and installation.
Tell us what you need. We reply with next steps and a guide price.
We work from fire risk assessments, fire door inspection reports and our own surveys, pricing each item clearly and completing the work with photographs and a schedule you can file. Where an item cannot be fixed without evidence from a manufacturer or test body, we say so and set out the options.
If an existing frame in a St Albans building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
Every quote in St Albans identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
We can phase work in St Albans around residents, staff or pupils, with out-of-hours options.
Each completed item is photographed and cross-referenced to the original report so the action can be closed.
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.
