Key checks for Witney projects

Service penetrations

Cables and pipes through glazed screens and their surrounds must be fire-stopped with products tested for that application.

Evidence first

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

Painted seals

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

Which rules apply to fire glazing remedial works in Witney?

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.
