Fire Glazing Remedial Works in Folkestone: what's included
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.
- Completion schedule and photographs
- Frame replacement where needed
- Correct intumescent seals and glazing tapes
- Fire-stopping around glazed screens
Before you order fire glazing remedial works: what matters
Item-by-item pricing
We price each defect separately so you can approve urgent items first.
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.
