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.
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.
We cover Shipley and the surrounding postcode districts, including BD18, BD17, BD10, BD9, BD8, BD1. Nearby towns we also serve include Bradford, Guiseley, Yeadon. Shipley is about 15 km from Leeds, the largest town in our West Yorkshire coverage.
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 price each defect separately so you can approve urgent items first.
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.
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.
After survey you get a fixed written quote for the agreed scope, so Shipley budgets are not open-ended.
