Fire Glazing Surveys
Surveys that identify what fire glazing you have and what needs fixing.

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.
Survey visits can be arranged anywhere in Newmarket, including the CB8 districts, and in nearby Haverhill, Ely, Cambridge. Newmarket is about 55 km from Ipswich, the largest town in our Suffolk coverage.
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.
Intumescent strips painted over during redecoration can be replaced without changing the glass.
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.
If an existing frame in a Newmarket building has no traceable evidence, we say so and price the options rather than guess.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Newmarket budgets are not open-ended.
Every quote in Newmarket identifies the tested system: frame, glass, beads, seals and fixings, within its pane-size limits.
Fire glazing remedial works applies to many building types in Newmarket, including schools and colleges and industrial units.
