What's involved with fire glazing remedial works in Ashford (Kent)

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.

  • Frame replacement where needed
  • Bead replacement and refixing
  • Replacement of non-rated or damaged glass
  • Fire-stopping around glazed screens

Before you order fire glazing remedial works: what matters

Painted seals

Intumescent strips painted over during redecoration can be replaced without changing the glass.

Evidence first

Remedial glass and seals must suit the existing frame's evidence. Where that evidence is missing, we raise it before work starts.

Close-out

Each completed item is photographed and cross-referenced to the original report so the action can be closed.

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.
