Fire Glazing Surveys
Surveys that identify what fire glazing you have and what needs fixing.
Learn more →If a building in Oadby needs fire glazing remedial works, the starting point is the rating its fire strategy requires. We confirm that, survey the openings and quote a tested system to suit.
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.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Oadby budgets are not open-ended.
You receive the classification references, glass marks and installation photographs for your fire safety records.
Designs follow the building and fire safety rules that apply in England, not a one-size-fits-all approach.
Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.
Each completed item is photographed and cross-referenced to the original report so the action can be closed.
Remedial glass and seals must suit the existing frame's evidence. Where that evidence is missing, we raise it before work starts.
We cover Oadby and the surrounding postcode districts, including LE2, LE18, LE5, LE1. Nearby towns we also serve include Wigston, Leicester, Market Harborough. Oadby is about 5 km from Leicester, the largest town in our Leicestershire coverage.
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.
